We had a crib which they generally fitted till 6 months. Then they moved to the big cot.

In reality they co-slept till about 18 months.
6 years in the case of DD

My first slept in it from 4 weeks. He hates the Moses basket and loved to stretch out.
Youngest was 5 months.

Just before 8 weeks. She had been in a Moses basket at home but then we went to stay with my parents for a month where she slept in a cot and having so easily made the transition I decided not to put her back in the moses basket when we got home.

The cot is next to my bed though so she was still sleeping in the same room as per the SIDs guidelines.

From birth.

We took one side off it and pushed it against the bed.

She slept in it in a nest until she started rolling at 4 months, then we took the nest out and put the side back on and moved it away from the bed.

The intention was to move her out of our room at 6 months but it didn't happen. She will probably be moving out in the next few weeks before her first birthday.

Moses basket from birth, moved to cot in our room at 4 months. He could probably still squash into the basket now at 8 months but he likes to spread his arms out and was getting annoyed at hitting the sides

I can't fit cot in my room. Little one is 12 weeks. Still ok in Moses basket but he's getting big!
