Does anyone see any on sale? Pish posh baby has them but they are only $10 off.

Is there any off brand that works just as well?

Thanks all!

Ok correction. That was poor comprehend on my part.

It's only $10 off

What if I buy something not brand name?
Like a dog pillow?

I have a snuggle me. They will probably have big sales for black friday. My baby really seemed comfortable in it for the first month or so. I used it a lot for supervised napping during the day and it was nice to be able to easily bring it to whatever room I wanted. Then he only wanted to sleep on his stomach so it no longer got as much use (I would never put a baby in it to sleep on their stomach). Based on my research I thought the snuggle me would work better for a newborn, and I'm happy I went with that since I didn't need it past the newborn stage.

It isn't approved for sale in some countries because of safety concerns and risk of suffocation. What about a pack'n'play with bassinet or a bassinet instead?

I mostly used a bassinet in my room until too old for a bassinet, then moved each baby out to a crib.

Thank you. It says on the bottom of the page that it’s not safe for sleeping. Did your baby sleep overnight in it?

yep. like I said, in general the prints are quite ugly, but if you want the dock a tot for convenience then just overlook the print

at least by my friends they all found some on sale in ugly prints but they wanted the pillow they still got it

What about looking at a side by side bassinet? Baby's bassinet is attached to the bed but isn't actually in the bed. Something like this...

Yikes, those look like suffocating hazards! Surprised

For DD, when she was taking a nap right next to me, I put her on a large boppy. They are very firm, and the cover is smooth, and when she was little she couldn't roll over and get her face into it. It kept her on her back, and she liked the feeling of the sides against her.

I also used it as a nursing pillow, so it had that nice "mama smell" that was so comforting. It's like having an extra set of arms.

I have a picture somewhere, I'm trying to find it. I'll post it when I figure out which folder it's in.
