I plan on using both, the bassinet is in our room for when she isnt sleeping with me in the bed during the night. I will use the cot during the day, my DP is a night worker so I dont want to be going in and out of the room moving the bassinet and since I have an active toddler she will need to go into her room for her day sleeps so might as well use the cot

that and I never had the chance with DS coming so early to actually set up a nursery, its been fun this time around.

On a side note, best to set the cot up now, we didnt have one ready to go with DS when I happened to walk into our room just in time to catch the bassinet from falling over, DS had outgrown it apparently. but my DP and I were both totally sleep deprived, DS wouldnt sleep in our bed (nor at all the previous night), and we needed a mattress for the cot. Once we finally got back from the shops, we realised it was too big, had to go back and change it aaaarrggh. It is a bad bad morning burnt into my memory. We swore from then on, everything would be ready inadvance.
