We've used the fisher price rock'n'play for the first couple of months with both of my kids. To transition to the crib I moved the rock'n'play into the nursery from our bedroom and put it next to the crib so that they could get to the new environment. Then we gradually stopped using it to rock them until after a couple of weeks we were just putting them down in it and not rocking it at all. That way they were used to not having the motion. Then we moved them into the crib. They still had to adjust to having a big, less snugly space, but doing it gradually helped. DD had an easier time that DS, but I think he was just ready to be out of the swaddle and we were still swaddling him at first.

Good luck! Any change is a little scary with babies...

I put the bassinet straight in the crib for a while until it was definitely too small. With both boys by that time they were used to the environment and the non-rocking and getting rid of the bassinet was no big deal. I started for the first week with naps and when that was fine I moved to bedtime too.
