With our three babies we always made sure they slept in a variety of places. From newborn they slept in the cradle beside my bed at the start of the night, then I'd lift them in with me to co-sleep when they needed that (and a feed)... We also had a big Emmaljunga pram with a basinette attachment (photo HERE) that was used for day sleeps alot. They also slept in their big cots and a port-a-cot that I had set up in the loungeroom. So that's about 5 places. I think because they had this variety from day 1 they got used to it. The best thing about it was that as they got a bit older and more aware of their surroundings they still maintained this flexibility. Great when you are staying overnight somewhere other than home.
