Expectant parent here.

Thanks for the to-buy-list TS. We are also in the midst of preparing for the grand entrance of our baby wub.gif

Regarding item no.2: Baby cot.
What do you guys think about a Korean style bumper bed instead of cot for newborn?

Been getting a lot of feedback from friends/relatives about the baby cot end up collecting dust at the corner of their house. Because newborn baby end up sleeping on the same bed with the parents unsure.gif

* Apologies if I should be creating a new thread to ask about this.

Hi, I am thinking whether to get baby cot or this too!Price starts at RM999 for the basic to RM1600 for bigger and more versatile type (baby expo). A korean tv show shows celebrities using this for their babies. Hubby thought it will be good and later can use it as play area for toddler, or fold and keep away when not in use. But I wonder how a few pieces of normal foam can cost so much.

Also need to consider when taking baby in and out, you will have to squat down.

Most probably I will still get a baby cot from Ikea.

The bumper bed does seems overpriced if you put it that way, a few pieces of foam tongue.gif
We'r trying to justify the purchase by thinking it can be used till baby is at least 5 yrs old. Anyway, still undecided...

We might receive a hand-me-down barely used playpen. Planning to use it like a cot.
Any thoughts on playpen vs cot? The 2 looks the same to me except for the materials (cloth vs wooden).

There’s no bumper that safe for baby. For me baby cot is one of the most important gear. I have no idea why your friends and relatives let the cot collecting dust and put their baby in a greater risk by co sleeping on the same bed??? I’m surprised many parents are unaware of the SIDS risk.

Thanks for highlighting that Mrs.A. We just wanna keep our baby safe and find the best way for baby to sleep comfortably.
How about a korean style bumper bed like this?
