DD is 15 weeks and almost fills it, she is right up next to my bed.

Im considering moving her cot in and putting it against the wall, there will be about a 3 ft gap between us

dd- 4 mo... ds- 1mo- it is a tight squeeze with the feeding chair and changing station in here too
Got to be better than putting him in with dd though!

DS was about 5 weeks. three feet is not that far.

7 weeks both times, they were getting too long and grumpy.

The moses basket only just fitted in our tiny room (it was in the gap between my side of the bed and the wall) so after that they were in their own rooms in the cot.

About 4mo with DS1 and DS2 they filled the thing! They both went in their own rooms at this time.

Till her legs were bent but she was at least 4 if not 5 months old and it was a smaller than average basket so I'm surprised that so many of your DC grew out of thiers so early!

DD1 until about 5mths but sure she was a bit squashed!

DD2 4mo and have borrowed great bedside crib from friend which she is still in, 7mo now and hope she'll be in it for couple more months (can't bear to put her in her own room yet).

I have just moved my DD out of her Moses Basket and into her cot in her own room and she is 7 months!! She isn't very tall but started looking a bit squashed in the middle.
