How old were your babies when they outgrew it for sleeping?

My daughter is almost a year old and still sleeps in it, just getting to the point of needing to transition to a bigger size.

My daughter is just about to turn 1 and she is 30 inches long. She hasn't outgrown it yet. I figure that when she gets to about 36 inches that we'll retire it.

that's a good point. i didnt wait to find out how long it would be before my son outgrew it. once i saw that at around 10 months and 50th percentile for height and weight i could barely squeeze him in, that was enough for me.

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 baby boy is 3 1/2 months old & still sleeping in his LulyBoo Baby Lounge. He's a large boy, too, at almost 16 pounds! I'm assuming I will get another month or two of use, but due to his size, probably not much more than that.

My daughter did sleep on the sofa at night for a short time - for about 2 months when she was 3-1/2 yrs old (She's small for her age). She slept just as well on the sofa as she did on her toddler bed. The only reason she stopped sleeping on the sofa was because we purchased a new bed/mattress for her. Even then, we had to coax her off the P'Kolino sofa & onto her new bed.

It is reccomended you flip the mattress at 12 months or when the child is 20 pounds. Some parents like to flip the mattress to the toddler side at the age of 12 months while others wait until the child is between 18 and 24 months. All of these are acceptable since both sides are designed to be safely used for infants and toddlers. While infants should be placed on their back to sleep on the firmer side, a toddler will most likely find the softer side more cozy. -found this online...

My daughter is 17 weeks now & we love the FP Rock & Play Sleeper, but seems like she might be outgrowing it soon.

From when they start eating solids until when they don't use high chairs anymore. so for me it was 6 to 18 months.

We plan on flipping it when we convert to a toddler bed... perhaps around 15 months. I imagine it's mostly just important to have the infant side the 1st year--when SIDS is a higher risk. There isn't a dramatic difference between the two sides.

It took my daughter a few days to learn to sleep on her tummy. It wasn't as bad as I thought it might. It was similar to my son learning to sleep not swaddled. Anything new always takes a few days I think

For about 15 minutes, which would be enough for the baby to sleep. But I think it's too noisy, it didn't work with my baby. What solves a sleep problem is to let the baby cry. My baby sleeps easily now, but I had to let him cry for a couple of nights... I tried everything, only this worked.

I bought this pillow, which professional reviews states is suitable from birth although I bought it at about 5 months. I further researched however, that babies don't need pillows to sleep and she has proven that by finding her way flat on the mattress rather than staying on the pillow. It's now used when I can monitor her during her daily naps.

We loved ours for our twin girls when they were less than 7 months, however we stopped using them once they could roll over. Now at 13 months there is no way they would stay put in the nests long enough to go to sleep. I think I have seen something that combines the depth of a pack n play with the compact lightweightedness of the nests, but don't remember where.

I agree with one of the previous posters. Our pediatrician recommended not using this as an overnight sleeping option. We used it when we were traveling when our son was younger (up until about 3 months), but after that our son could roll over and preferred to sleep on his stomach. Not sure how tall your baby is, but our son was around 23-24" at 3 months and still fit but didn't have a lot of extra room.

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.

I think it depends on how they sleep. My 2 year old slept in one a similar size when visiting family many times over the summer and did just fine. I have a 6 month old in it and there is plenty of room to grow.

Yes my little has slept when I was carrying her as long as your not bouncing around a lot.
