OT Parents - is there anything In between a Pack n' Play and a full on crib?

Posted on 12/6/14 at 8:55 pm
Travelling 10 hrs to my parents for a weeks stay. Normally our 1 yr old would sleep in a pack n' play, but we will be there 5 nights. My parents are pretty connected with other grandparents in thier neighborhood, and have produced loaner baby items for our trips in the past. Is there something short of a crib, but more stable than a pack n' play, that I can ask my parents to borrow/buy for our stay?

A pack in play for 5 nights should be fine

Don't know of anything.
We've used a pack n play for a few days with no issues.

We bought an inflatable twin mattress. Our kid is 4 so he fits fine. A 1yr old? I am not sure if that is safe or not.

Just use the pack n play. That's what it's made for

We drive 10 hrs to my parents about twice a year to stay 5-6 days, and our daughter slept in a pack n play during those trips just fine all the way to 2 years old. They make portable crib mattresses (the exact size of a pack n play) that are under $30 and are a huge step up from the pad that comes with pack n plays. We bought one for that exact purpose, and it's worked out for my daughter as well as my 7-month-old son.

More stable for what? It's a bed for a 1 year old.

That's exactly the purpose of the pack n play.
We use an inflatable kids bed for short travel. It's an inflatable mattress with an inflatable bumper ring all the way around. Keeps him from rolling out. Works great.

What's wrong w the pack n play ? Put some blankets under sheet for cushion
Posted on 12/6/14 at 10:53 pm to MiloDanglers
That is the exact reason to own a pack and play... Keep it on lowest setting near the ground and put some thick blankets or comforters over it if you don't have a mattress pad.. How much stability do you need for a 20lb kid

Tell your baby it's time to man the frick up and go without a god damn PnP for a few nights. God damn you going to still be cutting up his food and hand feeding him while he is in HS at this rate

Pack n play all the way.

We used the pack n play until he didn't fit comfortably anymore. Now, he is 2 and uses a kiddie cot with his nap mat from school. We travel a bit with this setup. We will even bring it to someone's house if we will be there late.

Pack & Plays have become smaller over the years.
Grace still makes a large one.
It's the bright multicolored one - green, blue, yellow, & red.
Graco - "Entertainment size" pack & play
