Moses baskets?

I originally planned to get one for my son, but decided I'd rather have a bassinet that was up off the floor and in easy reach from my bed - they do make stands for moses baskets too though. Moses baskets are adorable, I'd say if you feel like getting one then it's worth it. Most are just for use as a baby bed for the first couple months as they're made pretty small. They usually aren't sturdy enough for use as carriers. You can look on ebay for some less expensive ones than you find in most stores and sites, that's where I planned to get mine. With shipping you might even get one for under $30.

That was a great thread for me to read thanks!

OK back to the subject, Moses Baskets? Anyone?

Yes, they are very handy Esp. w/ a newborn.. We got a new one at a used kid's store (once upon a child)..I think Target sells them too...They don't really work well once your DC starts rolling or crawling as they tip over-lesson learned! Check e-bay too for new ones...
Good luck!

I like mine. I don't think I would've spent the $ for it on my own, but it was a shower gift. I used it when DD was a newborn as a safe place to put her down while I went to the bathroom, etc. She's slept in it for naps a few times, too. I still use it while I take a shower--just take the basket into the bathroom (actually, it stays there now!) and she hangs out looking out the skylight.
Mine was about $60 I think, from JC Penny. My only complaint is the foam insert is really flimsy and the cover is hard to get back on it once it comes off to wash, etc. I finally just put a blanket down in it instead.

We had one, found it very useful when dd was tiny. We paid $80. Found it at Marshalls. I wouldn't spend over $100 for one. You won't use it long. We didn't have a crib or bassinet or anything else but our bed. It was very useful when she was tiny so that if she went to sleep downstairs, I could bring her up with me without waking her.
