Bassinet stroller question

[craedaisy12]

In September we will have around a 2 month old when we go to the parks and stay on property for 2 weeks.

My question is I plan to get a bassinet stroller to use for baby while in parks and such.

Would it be okay to use the stroller as a bassinet/crib for sleeping at night?

Trying to have less things in the room if possible.

I never needed it with my first because we never didn’t take him that young.

That depends on the specific brand of stroller you buy. Some stroller bassinets are rated for overnight sleep, but some are not. So you'll need to check with the specific brand you buy. And I believe, if I'm not mistaken, the bassinet will have to have a separate stand to sit in. I don't think you can leave it attached to the stroller for overnight sleep.

I would ask your pediatrician. I’m out of the baby loop, but when my kids were little they said to never let them sleep for too long in the car seat/stroller because of the angle. The bassinet is flat, I assume, so that shouldn’t be an issue, but I would want a doctor’s advice.

The other thing to consider is if baby will actually sleep in it. We always used a pack&play when traveling because they were used to napping in it at home and at the grandparent’s house. I brought my own sheets and their sleep sacks.
