Thread: "Moms who never coslept, what do you do when you stay the night elsewhere and they’ve outgrown the pack and play?"
Mine fit in the pack n play past two. What pack n play do you have? Maybe consider a new one with higher limits. We use the baby Bjorn travel crib, it has no weight limit and a height limit of 35” the same as a standard crib. Sometimes hotels have full size cribs as well. You would have to call each individually to ask though.
Thread: "Is the baby bjorn travel crib worth it? Travelling for an extended period with 2 under 2"
Yeah it’s worth it. We’ve done 2 separate 2 month trips where our kid slept in it every day. She did great. I think it’s too big to attach to another piece of luggage though
Thread: "Best Travel Crib? Mat Leave Travel"
We have the baby bjorn travel crib which I found used on market place. I’ve used it for two 10+ day trips so far and baby sleeps great (if not better than at home) in it! I also love that the sides are mesh because she loves sleeping with her face against the edge.
Thread: "Anyone have a suggestion for a pack n play that isn't too heavy? We need one for vacation!"
We got a baby bjorn travel crib. It's expensive and big when folded, but we like the simple design and our son sleeps well in it at home.
Thread: "Best travel crib for toddler with high weight capacity?"
Oh nice!! I figured there were other similar styles but wasn’t sure which. The mattress being on the floor makes it super long-lasting!
Thread: "Looking for 3-in-1 travel cot/bassinet [ca]"
Doesn’t have the bassinet attachment, but I love the baby bjorn travel crib. The best feature is that it sits on the ground so there’s no weight limit. And you could stand in there if you had to. The other great thing that they don’t advertise is that there’s a bit of extra space in between the metal when you put it away to stuff toys and books. We’ve done plane travel and stuffed a bunch of extra toys/books/packets of wipes for free because they’re free to bring on the plane.

Same for the baby bjorn travel crib! No weight limit because it’s on the floor
Thread: "Travel crib for tall toddler recommendations"
We ended up asking for a roll away crib, which is still a little small in size but it’s off the ground and has high metal sides. He slept beautifully in it! We did also order the baby bjorn travel crib off Amazon since it’s similar in height to the lotus, but other than testing it out with him, we just returned it and got our money back. It was nice to have in our back pocket tho in case the travel crib didn’t work. The sides were very tall and even tho our toddler tried climbing out, it was a lot harder. Good luck!
