Has anyone got the Purflo sleep nest?
If so thoughts? And also I have the tutti XL next to me crib, shows dimensions are a bit too big for the cot itself but I've read some reviews where mums have said they've managed to squeeze it in?! Has anyone else had trouble of fitting it into their next to be cribs?
Thanks

I wouldn’t put it in the next to me. With my first, I just used the purflo when I was next to her on the sofa. It’s not safe for unsupervised sleep.

Pods etc are not advised for safe sleeping , the baby is meant to be in the next to me with nothing but the mattress & a sheet (and blanket/sleep bag if cold) I personally bought one but it’s for during the day supervised and on the couch x

I have a Purflo but for day time naps in lounge room instead of a moses basket. I have a SnuzPod next to me and it definitely doesn’t fit in there but wasn’t intending to use it there anyways. The Purflo sleep tight baby bed is different to a usual ‘nest/pod’ and they do say it’s approved for overnight sleep and it’s all breathable mesh with a hard flat surface. I’m in two minds on whether I would actually use overnight, could be handy for a trip away. The lullaby trust don’t comment specifically on products but say no nest/pod should be used for unsupervised sleep but this product is different so hard to know for sure and they say it’s approved. I’ve seen others use it this way and baby can feel more secure initially compared to the bigger space of a bassinet/cot.

I’ve put our purflo in our SnuzPod3. It just about fits in there 😊

We use our purflo nest in our Snuzpod by squeezing it in & have done since birth baby is now 3 months and really loves it

So my response has completely changed! My little one is 2.5 weeks old and would not go in the bassinet/SnuzPod so we were cosleeping which I didn’t like. Ended up caving and out the overnight Purflo in the bassinet - had to squish it in and the end bends upwards but is still flat. She will now sleep in there for a few hours 🙏 usually by 3/4am it’s hard to get her resettled but we can get 2x 2-3 hour stretches some nights before that. It still makes me nervous but we’ve taken a risk based approach with it and she’s right next to me. My husband stuffed his face in and can breathe through the mesh and not really that different to the bassinet or a mosss basket. Wouldn’t use a sleepyhead/dock-a-tot as they aren’t mesh but this does seem to be working.
oh amazing to hear, will try it, my little one suffers from colic and hates being put down
