When should baby move on from pram bassinet

Baby girl is just 5 months and has been in pram bassinet when used. She has good head control and can sit aided but not unaided yet. She has just started to roll over properly and does this a lot when lying on her back. Is it time to move to the seat for the pram yet? TIA

We moved both of ours from pram/completely flat buggy to upright buggy seat at 6 months.

Usually they say 6 months, I’d say when they can roll from back to belly and try to do so in the bassinet they are ready for the proper seat.

The manufacturers all say 6 months.

However our pram is quite a small one so my DC1 had outgrew the bassinet by 5 months and DC2 by 4 months! I had no choice but to move them to the seat attachment, but we kept it laying flat until they were both 6 months. This was basically completely flat but it was a bucket seat so not truly flat. They didn't spend huge amounts of time in them though obviously.

They don't all day 6 months, done suitable from birth and then it's whenever convenient for you. If 6m+ then when they roll
