Nonnie's Thoughts on Caiden's Pack and Play

My daughter and her husband were given a Portable Playard, Sturdy Play Yard with a Comfortable Mattress and Changing Station (Blue&Green) by Kidsry as a gift just before Caiden was born. This can be purchased online at Amazon.

There is a changing table that attaches to the top of the open area and a 3 elephant mobile that doesn't move. It just hangs there.

They've had it in the living room to use when Caiden isn't in his HALO Bassinest Swivel Sleeper Bassinet, but mommy doesn't like it very well because the mesh is dark and she can't see him when he is laying down and sleeping. The HALO Bassinest Swivel Sleeper Bassinet can be purchased at Amazon, Target, BuyBuyBaby, Walmart, and a few other retail stores.

Nonnie's (that's me) has changed his diapers a few times using the changing station and I have to admit, it is a bit low and makes my back hurt because of the strain it causes. I wonder why they didn't create the mobile to move and play a soft little tune because Caiden loves listening to music - I think that mobile is really just obsolete. We have taken it off. It serves no purpose for him. It doesn't console him, it doesn't turn and the 3 elephants just hang there and right now, he wouldn't even be able to focus on them because they are aligned from the floor to the ceiling instead of laying flat and hanging. (I remember how the mobiles were when his mommy was a baby)...they laid flat and it spun singing a soft tune.

Today, Nonnie moved the Portable Playard to another part of the room so we could use it this week instead of bringing the Bassinest in and out of the living room due to its weight. Nonnie can't carry that and mommy sure can't because of her surgery.

Mommy is laying down right now resting and Nonnie just laid the little guy down for his morning nap. I have to agree - setting on the couch looking directly at the Pack and Play - it is a bit difficult seeing him in there.

Nonnie, mommy, and daddy wish the mesh on the Portable Playard was lighter similar to the HALO Bassinest, but it's not...

I'm not sure how much this little guy will utilize this gift because if mommy and daddy aren't happy with it - - maybe the Portable Playard by Kidsry can do some revisions for future Pack and Plays they sell. I personally wouldn't buy this particular one again and on a scale of 1 - 10 - I'd give it a 5 because of the height of the changing station and the darkness of the mesh.

Caiden is resting and Nonnie is going to start breakfast. Sweet dreams little guy...
