Darcy started rolling around 6 weeks and by rolling that meant the cradle rocked and she rolled further and banged into the side. So we just put her in the cot. It didn't fit in our room so the decision to move her to her own room was kind of made for us. I didn't really find a benefit with the rocking motion and it was definatley longer but not really wider than a bassinette IYKWIM? We've ditched the cradle and are getting a bassinette for the next one.
We have a boori cradle, they are a very big cradle, my boys are big boys both in weight and length (both in the 97th percentile for weight and length), yet they managed to stay in the boori cradle until they were 7 months of age. I love my boori cradle and wouldn`t be without it.
