What do you have for your baby to sleep in when camping?

[lunavix]

We were looking at those samsonite pop up cots, dd will be 9months so sh'll be too big for the diddy one and would have to have a big one. Any other ideas?

When we went camping last year & dd was about 7 months we brought one of those baby sleeping bags (proper camping one) & she slept next to me on a blow up bed, it worked & she was fine i cusioned her round the sides with pillows.

I should say she was one the blow up bed with me it was a double one.

Our lad will be on a karimat in between his parents. he's not a rolly baby.

We have a Nomad Travel Cot which will last them up to 4 years ( depending on height of child). very light weight, lot lighter than standard cot. Easy to use. Took it camping in a tent last year with our DS at 7 months. Have used it lots since when visiting friends and family.

Is expensive in comparison to other makes but lighter, and length of use really over rides this. Comes with sleeping bag which can be split in half until they are old enough to be in one. So bottom is used as additional padding.

Oh I am itching to say " a tent"

we used a travel cot

I'd go for a double self-inflating mat so she can't roll off (like EVERYONE does with a lilo) and a grobag to hinder any crawling attempts. Make a nest around her with your sleeping bags until you're ready to curl up with her.

we've got one of these

travel cot

okay I have another question, we're going camping this summer. how big does a tent need to be to fit a nomad travelc ot in it?

wow, just gone and looked at the nomad and the other link. They look fabby; definiatly getting one.

There is a navy Nomad travel cot on sale on ebay at the moment - considering they cost a fortune new.....
