Travel cot, Moses basket or small crib ?? Ahhh help !

[MunchkinJess]

I am 36 weeks pregnant with my second and still can't decide what to go get for downstairs .

I already have the halo bassinet for next to the bed which I absolutely love as it's specifically designed for c sections Mums . And that's staying put next to me.

I need something for downstairs that I can keep downstairs but is also moveable if needs be . 1) I have a very helpful toddler 4 years old and a dog and 2) in case we do any trips over the next year or so I don't want to waste money on buying multiple things for the baby to sleep in.

Hubby says to get a Moses basket as he thinks a travel cot is far too big but I am starting to think that a travel cot may be best as we can use it downstairs for day time
Naps , sturdy and away from the two babies (toddler and dog) can double up for when we travel for the baby to sleep in.

What did others do and get ? I also don't want to spend a fortune so nothing like the chicco next to me crib as lovely as it is I can't justify the £200 price tag . X

Some places sell mini travel cots that are a similar size to cribs, they are not the best looking things in the world but they are useful and not expensive.

This is crib size

This Nuna one is also mini size but is slightly more expensive.

With DD I used a Moses basket and the pushchair carrycot downstairs. This time it's twins and I'm planning to get a travel cot with the inbuilt higher level "bassinet" to save my back, and with wheels on two corners as well so can move it around. There are quite a few on Amazon, the Hauck sleep n play is one I can remember the name of, it's 60x120cm so same size as a cot so no new bedding needed and we found our DD fit in a travel cot of this size until she graduated to a bed. There's also a Graco range called "Electra" which are more expensive, they are 75x100cm I think so shorter but possibly a better shape for playpen use?
