I know MrsBee flew with her GoCrib but I don't know that I want to spend that much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399755 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 14:36:57 +0000 mediagirl 399755@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We took the PnP with us on our trip to Ohio and it worked out great. It folds up into a small, compact shape and pulls out and sets up easily. Also, we use it every day at home so, it's worth every dollar we spent on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399746 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 14:33:19 +0000 birdofafeather 399746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i think we're going to buy the go crib for ourselves and our parents will each buy their own pnps to keep at their houses. then we're not actually travelling with it because both of our cars are quite small! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399737 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 14:30:10 +0000 heffalump 399737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a pack n play and it's worked out great so far. We've taken it on quite a few weekend trips, and even tent camping. LO naps and sleeps in it great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399581 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 13:45:29 +0000 Smurfette 399581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would think PnP cause it will grow as they get older. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399580 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 13:45:05 +0000 aprk 399580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're going for the Breeze. I'm not one to splurge, but we've tried all the PnP options, and it really is the best. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399573 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 13:42:54 +0000 twinmama 399573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we have both travel bassinets and pack n plays. the travel bassinets were really nice at the beginning because it was easier to make the babies cozy when they were so small....but that also means they outgrow them faster. we only used them for like a month or two. now at 3-4 months we use only the pack n plays when we travel. I also recommend using the pack n plays for naps at home sometimes, so they are used to sleeping in it, since it really is quite different than a crib mattress. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399568 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 13:40:24 +0000 kjn 399568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love our baby bjorn travel crib. It's light, easy to transport, and super easy to set up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399562 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 13:37:48 +0000 Adira 399562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: Thanks for the options! I'll have to check them out! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399546 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 13:33:47 +0000 Mrs. Bee 399546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>the pack and play is great, but if you want an easier (albeit) pricier option, check out the breeze, gocrib, and bjorn travel crib. all great options. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399545 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 13:33:27 +0000 lemondrop 399545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely pack and play, I use ours all the time as a playpen to keep him out if everything. When traveling, half the time he ends up in our bed anyway, so you may as well get something with multiple uses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399524 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 13:26:43 +0000 Adira 399524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: Thanks! That's what one of my friends said, that when they are older, I can still use it without worrying about them escaping, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399489 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 13:18:24 +0000 Bao 399489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think the pack n play is a good option, so that when they are a toddler you can still use it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-bed-vs-pack-n-play#post-399481 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 13:17:18 +0000 Adira 399481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Okay Bees, I need advice!</p> <p>I know that when baby comes, we'll be visiting my parents, Hubs parents, grandparents, etc. and we'll need a place for the baby to nap and/or sleep over night if we do a weekend. I'm just curious if people prefer a Travel Bed or the Pack 'n Play (or something else entirely).</p> <p>Here's the two I've been looking at:</p> <p>Travel Bed: <a href="http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=12319232" rel="nofollow">http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=12319232</a></p> <p>Pack 'N Play: <a href="http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11891983" rel="nofollow">http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11891983</a> </p>
