Does anyone use their Graco Pack 'N Play as a bassinet? What kind of sheets do you use for it? Do you just use the ones made by Graco? I read some so-so reviews about the Graco sheets and I am just wondering if anyone has found anything else they could recommend. Thanks!!

We used a Graco Pack n' Play as our bassinet & it worked out great! We still use it sometimes for naps & always for travel. I didn't buy Graco brand sheets, I just bought some sheets sized for a pack n' play & that has worked out just fine

There are quilted ones that are much nicer than the normal ones, and they offer a bit more padding. Still Graco brand.

I used the bassinet feature but only for a couple of weeks. Newborns don't roll around so we just laid a thick fleece blanket (it was winter) over it and tied it to the 4 corners to keep it still.

I used our Graco P'n'P for the first 3 months of LO's life. The sheets that I used were just the fleece fitted ones made for a P'n'P - not Graco brand, though.

Also I've trying to buy one but overwhelmed about which size I should get?

I have a Graco Pack n Play with all the changing table and storage attachments, as well as a basic one that is just the pack in play with a bassinet insert. I also had a Graco Travel Lite Crib, which is a basic pack n play, but smaller.
DS was well over 10 pounds at birth and in the 98% for length. At 2 months he was so big in the Travel Lite Crib, we took it back and exchanged it for a regular pack n play. The travel lite crib was smaller (went through a standard doorway) but it wasn't much lighter or that much smaller when it was folded to make it worth it for traveling.
The changing table on the pack n play is a nice feature, as is the storage tray, but DS was over the weight limit quickly and it didn't seem worth the money to have those features.
Our favorite pick is a basic pack n play. (Like this one http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11959539 ). We saved some $$ and it gets the job done.
We use one on weekends at my in-laws and have the basic one for traveling. If you have a bigger 2 story house and want one for downstairs, then it might be worth it to get one with a changing table on it, especially if you have a smaller baby than I did who can use it longer.

Ha, I was about to post the same question. I'm still on the hunt for nicer sheets for the PNP...15 months later!
