Travel Beds, Baskets and Swings

	How These Items Rank on the Checklist for a Baby
• Baby Needs - Travel Bed (Possibly if you live near your family or have friends that you will be visiting when your baby is young and taking naps a lot a travel bed can really come in handy.) • Baby Needs - Basket (Possibly having a basket for your baby to sleep in will help you get more done because you can easily move them while they sleep from room to room.) • Baby Needs - Swing (Possibly if your baby likes to swing to sleep, and a lot of babies do, a swing will be a good item for nap time.)

About Travel Beds, Baskets and Swings

Babies sleep a lot and they may want to take a nap at grandma's. You could use the car seat if your baby does not mind but they do make portable beds. Of course they will only last a couple of months. There are baby sleeping baskets but they put you in the same boat as far as how long you can use them. There are larger travel beds to use when your baby get older.

Something that might be nice to have is a swing. Its portability allows you to move it from room to room. Your baby may be able to sleep pretty sound as he or she is constantly lightly swung as they sleep.

If the hosts do not mind, you can always lay a receiving blanket down on a couch or large chair if you are sure your baby will not role off and let them nap there.
