@Courtneybrown I loved the next to me, my sister has it and I was adamant I was going to get the same one.. up until this week, I feel like you can only use this for about a year and then will have to change to a proper cot as they are not strong enough to stop baby toppling over once they can crawl/climb although having said that I guess if you are only planning to use it. Out of the 2 I feel like the next to me is better just due to you being able to be closer to baby and not having to get out of bed if baby just needs to be settled

My sister's little one is now 8 months and shes started looking into a cot.

Yes im going to get a cot anyway just wanted one of these on place of a moses basket as my third hated the moses basket

lol thank you I've heard such amazing things about both just can't decide butliked the fact the chicco i could literally just picked her up without getting out of bed lol x

Yeah it seems that with the halo one, you can have it practically on your bed but you would still have to get up to get baby out? i looked at it on google and it reminded me of the hospital table that goes round your bed lol

The next2me is great. You can get them cheap second hand and they're only recommended until 6 months old so they're usually in great condition!

Mine never settled well in a next to me... and used to claw at the fabric... she actually sleeps really well in a crib... which is also not a far transition to a cot x
