By the time Asjani was 4 months, the middle of the ba__sinet started sinking in...by then she was 15 lbs...We got her a crib at 4 1/2 months. I liked the changing table part of it and the mobile the best....

As soon as my daughter was about 5 mos., I stopped using it. I just got too paranoid that she would all of a sudden learn to sit up in the middle of the night and pull herself up and over the side! She was about 15 lbs. I like the idea of the pack n' play b/c its good for over nights at grandma's or on trips. I just stopped using the ba__sinet part of it. Also, I loved the playpen part, and when I was vacuuming or washing floors, I'd put her in it in the living room w/ toys to keep her occupied.

I tried to use the pack n play with Lucas, but I give up. he'll probably never sleep in his crib. But I didn't look at the weight thing. My guy weighs almost 17 lbs. I would think a couple of pounds would not hurt anything. They do seem pretty sturdy.

My daughter will play in her pack n play, and nap in it, but we don't have the ba__sinet attachment - we just have the net part that lifts the whole bottom up.

Mine had the 3/4 ba__sinette, and Sophia got too long for it at about two months. She still weighs less than 15lbs. When I moved her to the crib, she didn't like it at first, so I put the bumper pads in for a couple of weeks (after I sewed about 20 extra ties on them). I think she just didn't like how open it felt at first. Now she doesn't have a problem with the crib.

Amaya has had a crib since she was born (we had the nursery all set up when I was 5 months pregnant! lol) she slept in her pack n play for 3 weeks and then we moved her to her nursery (she started sleeping through the night a week later) I still have the ba__sinet part attatched, she only naps in it and I am always in the room when she is napping. At night she sleeps in her crib. She is almost 18 lbs and I have not noticed it bending or bowing at all. I have not looked at the weight limit in a while but I was thinking it said 20 lbs when we put it up. Amaya still loves the mobile and likes being close to it. I am not sure when I will move it down to just a play pen b/c she is pretty good about staying in one room when she is playing (usually the living room) and it is very well baby proofed.

i have no idea what a pack n playis but my girl came out of the ba__sinett as she turned 5 mths... she ws 14 pds at that age

In my opinion you should adhere to the weight limit. It is set for safety reasons. It probably could withhold a few extra pounds but it would not be worth the risk.

Mine is a Graco and the ba__sinet part is very sturdy. I didn't realize the weight guideline was only 15 pounds until my babysitter bought a different brand. This one has a very unsturdy ba__sinet which made me look at my owners manual. My son was over 20 pounds by 4 months and was still in the ba__sinet part and I had no problems. I think I took it out at about 5 months because he started pushing himself up at that time. I don't really use my pack n play now because he's working on crawling and can sit up. Once he starts crawling I know I'll use the pack n play again. For example once your baby starts crawling/getting into things you will use it when you need to run to the bathroom/shower/do house work etc..
