    Oh thanks for the responses ladies, still abit unsure.

    thinking about the cradle cos it might mean that we can keep MJ in the room for longer. We are moving after Christmas so haven't assembled the cot yet (don't have anywhere for it to fit) so hoping to have MJ in our room until we move.

    I like the hammocks - used them while working as teacher in 0-2 room - we had 10 of them for the under ones to sleep in and while I found them great for putting babies to sleep cos we could stand and rock 2 at a time I found them hard on my back in putting the babies in and out (I don't have a lot of strength in my lower back - past injury)

    Ohhh seems I rambling - the cradle I'm looking at is listed on ebay and not far from me - so if I win it that's great otherwise I guess I will stick with the bassinette.

    Once again ladies thanks for your input - it is always great to have so many people to bounce ideas around with!!!

    Sorry to crash the thread ladies but I was looking at a Boori Matilder Rocker Cradle online this morning. Does anyone have one? I'd love to hear feedback positive or negative.

    I know I am going to want this baby close to me 24/7 but not really keen on the idea of co-sleeping as DH is worried about hurting bub as he is a very heavy sleeper. The thing about the Boori that attracted me is that it is on casters and you can rock it.

    Also, does anyone have a monitor mat that goes under bub? You know the ones that have alarms if the baby has difficulty. Sorry for all the stupid questions but just wondering what the names of the mats are and if they fit in the Boori Cradle.

    Thanks so much.
