wooden cot vs soft cots? what's E difference and what factors should we consider?

There are definitely pros to using a soft cot (cheaper, very easy to move around and generally smaller, so newborns feel snug) - but I agree with Roshni and that you should get a wooden cot (with bars on all sides of the bed) if you want your baby to adapt to sleeping alone in his/her own bed long term. The NCT in the UK advises that a cot with bars on all four sides is better, as it allows air to circulate freely while your baby sleeps. Also, the distance between the bars should be no more than 6.5cm apart so your baby can't get stuck between the bars of the cot.

We have both a soft cot and a wooden cot. Baby naps in the day in her soft cot (nurse told me max 1 hour at a time) and the wooden cot at night. Reason being the mattress of the wooden cot is much better and it is also much bigger so we don't have to change it after 6 months to a year and get her accustomed to another bed. Babies like consistency. We bought the ikea wooden cot. Do buy one with wheels as it offers so much more flexibility. Also remember for the first six months don't use a bumper for the cot.
