How big of a baby would be comfortable sleeping in this? We're looking for a bed for the RV but don't want our baby to grow out of it too fast.

My son is 10 months old and still naps in this on occasion...and he is large for his age. I can't remember at what age he outgrew the bassinet feature; I think sometime around 4 months. But, after the bassinet is outgrown, you can just put the mattress in the bottom and they nap down there. I wouldn't use this for a full-time crib at this age; but for the occasional nap or overnight trip, my son is perfectly comfortable in it. He is not going to fit in it much longer. My daughter outgrew it sometime around her first birthday.

It's great for new borns to sleep on your bed with you .. After one month my baby started to sleep in his crib. But he was still fit it for when we went to grandma! So I say about 2 months before baby out grows it...

My guy is about 14lbs., 24 inches and he fits fine in the small (12-18lbs). He too is lean and long. His hands and feet are just starting to stick out. It's not as snug as a swaddle but has room for it when he gets bigger. For now, he's content with the size and has slept better since (about 5-6 hour stretches). I got both to compare side by side and returned one that didn't fit.

We use ours in our RV and it's just on a plywood frame that's typical in RV's, but it would be just fine on a box spring or any other firm or semi firm platform. This is a wonderful mattress and worth the money we spent on it. Both my wife and I sleep like a baby when we're camping now.

Hello there! Our "little" man is 3.5 months, 25" and 18 pounds. We use the RNP and aren't sure how much longer we will be able to use it. It only goes up to 25 pounds, but your child could outgrow it for length. We still have some head room, but we are thinking he will have transition by the end of August as we use this for his primary sleeping space due to acid reflux. So, you might be cutting it close if you decided to get it. Also, it travels VERY easily! We have taken it on many trips. It breaks down into a few pieces and could fit into a large suitcase. Have you looked at using a peapod?? KidCo PeaPod Portable Travel Bed with Air Pump - Red In any case, have a great time on your trip!

Yes, I think she will be comfortable in the BabyBjorn. My son has been riding facing out since 3 months (I know, I know--but he HATED facing inward and insisted on being carried so I had little recourse). I think he's just hit 24" now and he's perfectly comfortable.

That's what my husband and I have used this for all along. The mattress is the right kind for a newborn - you don't want something too cushy. I do have to agree with a previous commenter who said that you would need a lot of space next to your bed - you do need a fair amount. But so easy to set up!

Remember there is a weight limit on the bassinet. The mattress will take away from that 15 lb. weight limit on our Baby Trend Playard "Scooter". I would never take that chance.

The mini is big enough for a small child I wouldn't put a 1 yr old or older in it. It is however amazing for co-sleeping with out worrying about rolling over on your baby.

We have a delta mini crib, and the mattress seems too "fluffy" to put the baby in. Maybe when she's able to lift her head or even sit up. Right now our baby sleeps in a rock n play, and she seems to like that. You can use rock n plays until their 6 months or 25lbs I believe. Or when they can sit up.

I browsed their book, didn't find minimum only maximum(40 inches/50lbs). We switched to the toddler seat as soon as our boy could seat well without support( 7 month old) he was 26 inches tall then, he's almost 9 now and it looks like he can grow and grow and the stroller won't ever get small. I don't find the toddler seat very comfy btw, and I doubt my baby enjoys it (((( We chose this one only coz it comes with a bassinet.

We took at two hour ride to a theme park and my son was very comfortable in it. He fell asleep in it without any trouble. He's rear facing still and is 33 months 32 pounds and about 40 inches tall. It was a great purchase. He tells me all the time he loves it.

I am a side sleeper. I use this mattress in our RV and we stay out 2 months at a time. It's been fine with me and I'm a buff.... Big Ugly Fat Fellow! I was worried when I bought it that I really should have gotten a 10" mattress, but the 8" is just fine.

We are very happy with the 12" Memory Foam Mattress...my son is 6'1" and absolutely loves it. Most comfortable bed I've ever slept on, but you have to like a somewhat firm bed...no more backaches for my son.

my grandson just turned 6 mo. and started sleeping in a portable crib 2 weeks ago, I think that when a child can pull himself in to a sitting position that it isn't safe to leave them alone in it as they could wake up and pull up to the sides and tumble over the side onto the floor, my grandson could no longer stretch out comfortably in it but he still likes to get in it for a supervised nap .

It is safe and comfortable for the baby to sleep on the bottom. I'm 5' tall and I just had a bit of a problem reaching the bottom...not much, but a little. My back is in pretty good shape so it didn't hurt my back, that will depend on you. Sorry I can't be more specific. Hope you love the pack n play!

My baby is 6 months and still sleeps on it with plenty of room for her to move around still. We have friends who's son is a year and still sleeps in his. My daughter prefers the smaller space of the cosleeper over her crib. So we haven't transitioned her yet. Good luck!
