Hi

Expecting baby in May, we will be moving when she is 8 months old as we are in a one bedroom at the minute.

We can only fit in a small cot so need recommendations 😊

Thank you!

Hiya I found a lovely petite cot from mamas and papas for £121 including mattress. 😊 comes on Dove grey or white.

Another vote for the mamas and papas petite cot. Both of my kids have used it.

I like our mini mokee, nice mattress choices too x

@mummyh2016 may I ask how long we're they able to stay in it? I absolutely love it and am so excited for when my little one arrives.

They were in it up until 6 months when they went into their own room. They could've lasted longer than this though and I remember my DD using it at my MILs for an overnight stay at 9 months with no issues. I think it's supposed to last until 12 months.

Hey @elm26 thanks for posting! Some great recommendations here - you might like to take a look at our round-up of Mumsnetters' best cot beds too. We also have an in-depth Mamas & Papas Petite Compact Cot review if you're considering that model. If you have any feedback on the article or review, do let us know💐

Thanks everyone, I have seen the mama's & papa's one, just wanted to see if anyone had had it. It seems to be number one on Google although there are a couple for £500+ which I can't afford 😂

Thanks @PollyMumsnet 😊

@SPR40 @mummyh2016 could I ask where you've bought the bedding from? I've just ordered the mamas & papas one x

@elm26 mamas and papas make the mattress that fits that size there are 2 options one is £22 and another one that is pocket sprung is £48 I think. X if you search on mamas and papas small mattress it will come up.

@SPR40 thank you I ordered the cot with mattress, I just don't know where to buy the petite size sheets etc.

I ended up getting mine from here:

foryourlittleone.com/collections/hauck-face-to-me-fitted-sheets

They fitted, were a little snug, ideally they'd have been a cm or so longer but they worked.
