How long did you use the RNP?

[pacificrules]

DD is almost 6 months. Are we near the end of our RNP time??

Edit: I'm curious both for sleeping AND for just hanging out in it (if you used it that way).

[mellymel]

8 months.

Probably way too long but it was the only place DD would sleep.

[Deleted]

IIRC, we stopped around 7-8 months when he was clearly too big for it.

[ilikedonuts]

5.5 months for DD1 and 6 months for DD2

[jeaniebueller]

DD is almost 7 months and I still keep it out for when she is congested.

[Birdie]

A little longer than 5 months. I thought he would be sleeping in it when he went to college, but DH put him in the crib on a whim one night after a MOTN wakeup and it just stuck. DS never went back.

[rondonalddo]

4.5 months.

[redheadk]

5m, 3w. We sleep trained into the crib at that point.

[carolinagirl831]

5.5 months we started transitioning, she had a hard time getting used to the crib

[AlpineSlide]

around 5 months. he was getting too big for it. and that was just for hanging out and maybe naps.

he stopped sleeping in it overnight after the first month.

[mae141]

Around 4 months I think. She was starting to roll and was getting a flat spot.

[redpenmama]

Um, when DS rolled over in it, slid out on his belly, and crawled out of the room (fortunately I was coming in to check on him because I heard him stirring). I think it was 7-8 months. He was reaching the weight limit at that point anyway, but it was the only place he'd nap, so I just stuck with it for naps until then. So, in my case, too long, but he obviously showed us it was time to pack it up.

I have a giant baby, so I think we transitioned him out of that around 4.5 months. He just looked uncomfortable abd way too big!

[mlt]

They stopped sleeping in it between 8-10 weeks. Stopped hanging in it around five months.

[babyrn]

We stopped around 5-6 months. However, she slept in it swaddled so we couldn't strap her in and she started wiggling around enough at that point that it made me nervous. If she would have slept in it without the swaddle we might have kept her in it longer.

[Sloane]

DD, a long time, probably 8 months or so until she was sleep trained and in the crib, but I still put her in it around the house. She was a late crawler and had very little interest in rolling.

DS is 5 months and I think we're done. He sleeps in the crib and our bed, I can't even put in in the RNP while I shower or get ready because he's rolling all over the place and nearly falling out.

[chicago]

8 months. She loved that thing.

The visual of this is cracking me up. Oh hey guys! Just slid out of my RNP to see what was going on out here.

Haha...that is basically how it happened. He just crawled out of the room grinning. Since he managed to do it uninjured, it was pretty amusing. And I packed up the thing like 0.3 seconds after he made his appearance.

G is 6.5 months and I think we need to retire it. :/ He stretches and kicks in it and generally looks like he's going to jump out of it. So.

I'm so sad about it as it's my sleeper of last resort and where he napped. Now we have to figure out how to get him to nap well in his crib. Boo.

[CloudBee]

He never slept in it overnight. It was used as a place to set him down around the house when I needed my arms free for a few minutes. I'm pretty sure we packed it away by 6 months.

I would throw him in it while we were eating dinner, and while I pumped. Sometimes while showering.

[linz]

Almost 3 months and still going strong. We just use it at night right now bc they have bouncers for naps during the day. I'm nervous if it will give them flat spots.

[browneyedgirl9]

DS is 11 months and has still gone in it when he is sick. He is in the 10% for height, so he is small.

[ladygrey]

4 months. I didn't feel safe putting her in it once she was able to sit up on her own.
