Bedding

Last night we got into a discussion about baby bedding. It's ridiculous how many choices there are. You can get a crib (but which kind?), a co-sleeper (but which kind?), a "snuggle nest" that you put in bed with you, a bassinette, a pack'n'play with bassinette, an Amby baby hammock, a Moses basket... and there are different safety issues and philosophies associated with each one. I like the baby hammock, but I'm thinking some kind of co-sleeper arrangement would also work. (Oh, and then there's the ongoing discussion about co-sleeping. Some people swear by it, some people swear against it.) And then there's the matter of where the baby will sleep when s/he is downstairs. Everyone has an opinion, and they're all sure they're right. I wish we could get a test baby to try out all these different options.
