you can hire bassinetts too, we were only going to use the cot but when we got home and bubs screamed everytime we put him in the cot, we soon hired a hospital type bassinett for our room, cost $110 for 12 weeks, he was in it till he was 3 months old as he was too long then.

He spent most of his first month in bed with me, then 50-50 for his second month, by 3 months he was in his cot and 4 months he was in his cot in his room.
