I must be a bad mother as I put both of mine into the big cot in their own room from day 1blush.

Love grow bags though as if they need feeding in the night they stay nice and warm.

Aaah she will be ok and the suggestion to make the bed up for half the cot is good. I used to do that.

Do take a photo of her in it. You will be amazed that she ever looked so small in there one day when she eventally outgrows her cot and needs her first bed smile.

she slept just exactly the same as normal, which is to say, not much!! but it obviously didn't affect her one way or another.

thisisyesterday - yes although it's a bit sad i am v chuffed that she's finally getting big after lots of weight gain issues!

My DD was in her cot at 6 weeks and only 5 1/2 pounds when born so she was very wee. Slept in it a dream after having been bashing her little hands on the edge of the carrycot. I'm sure your DD will have a whale of a time exploring her new play sleep area!

aww bless, I remember when I moved ds1 into his big cot and into his own room and I hardly slept I felt so sorry for him. He was fine though lol and your dd will be too. she'll love having all that room to roll about in hehe

and hey, if she's outgrown the moses basket that must mean she's getting big on all that booby milk right????? :D

She'll be fine smile

If it worries you, then make up her bed so that the sheets only come half-way up it and her feet are near the bottom.

...she will be ok won't she?!!

DD (5mths) has finally outgrown her moses basket and is in her cot bed tonight - she is in a grobag so no covers, I'm scared of bumpers, so it's just teeny tiny her in the middle of this great white expanse....

I feel so sorry for her...smile

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face, , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin, , type [grin] or :o
For a wink, , type [wink]
For a shocked face, , type [shock]
For an angry face, , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face, , type [blush]
For a sad face, , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face, , type [envy]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
