Just a thought, and of course, everyone is different, but, Jonah slept in a bassinet for several months before moving to the crib. I didn't really realize how I would have felt about him sleeping in a crib, a room away from me, until I had him. So, on the way home from the hospital, we stopped to buy a bassinett. Just something to keep in mind. They are soooo little, the crib is sooooo big, and far away in a whole nother room....
