Which cot?

user1474561695 · 22/09/2016 17:42

My son is nearly 6 months old and is soon going to outgrow his next2me cosleeping crib. He still wakes frequently in the night for feeds and as he is breastfed it has been a lifesaver to be able to feed him without getting up and lifting him in and out of a cot. My question is are there any cots available that are full size and sturdy but also bed height and with a drop down side that would enable us to continue cosleeping until he sleeps through better and I can move him away from our bed?? Thanks

What did you end up buying ?

Can you still buy cots with drop down sides? I know there were reports of them being unsafe when I was researching for DC1 (baby/toddler managing to drop it themselves and becoming stuck).
With both of DCs we've used a cot bed with one side taken off pushed tight up to our bed: a sidecar arrangement. We've used the same cot bed for each child but had a different bed ourselves each time. The cot bed has different mattress height settings so we just picked the one that matched our bed.

You can still buy them in the UK as we have safety standards that they must comply with.
