    I'm thinking of buying the Graco Pack N Play Portable Playard/Twins Bassinet. We have a regular Pack N Play and feel the twins would fit, but it has a 15lb weight restriction. It looks like the twin bassinet has a 30lb weight restriction. Before I run out and buy it, just curious if anyone wants to share their opinions of it? Good? Bad? Practical? Thank soo much, Lanie

    We thought about buying it too but opted on the regular pnplay as they fit just fine in it (for the 1st 2 months or so/naps only) and then we borrowed another from a friend for now. I found that w/ the regular one they rolled into each other alot, but having it it was more practical down the road for when they move around...lime they do now. Now I am glad we didn't buy it, and now have the regular pnplay (and a borrowed one so they each have their own, so they can sleep better).

    We are going with a regular, I want the changer part and not a divider.

    My MIL bought us the twin pack n play but I haven't started to use it yet! I wanted the twin PNP though since I'm having twins, regardless of the practicality!

    We opted to buy the regular one as well because we wanted the changing table to have down in our living room. I figure when they outgrow the top portion, they can hopefully nap for a few more months in the bottom portion. We initially registered for 2, but only received one, so we are just going to wait and see, we may buy a second later so they can each have their own place to sleep when we travel and such.

    We registered for, and received, the twin PNP, but we have been trying to decide whether to keep it or take it back and get two regular ones. I think we'll probably end up using the twin one for a downstairs nap place for the first few months, and then we'll end up getting another regular one down the road for when they are bigger and move more and will need their own places to sleep.... It's hard to predict what will be better -- I wish I had a crystal ball.....

    The twin pnp wasn't available until it was too late to be practical for my girls, so we used a regular pnp with a bassinet for them. DH put a lot of his bodyweight onto the pnp bassinet(at the store to check it out) and it didn't budge-way more than 30 pounds of pressure. I think the 15 pound weight limit has more to do with the ability to move that a 15 pound baby will have compared to a newborn. At 15 pounds, Katelyn could have gotten up enough to fall out of it. We used the regular pnp for both until around 14 pounds each but moved them out due to mobility.
