MemberApril 9, 2024 at 5:54 pmBest sleep equipment for 2-month-old to sleep are single-level crib, infant bed, bassinet or playpen. The mattress should be firmly touching the edge of the equipment snuggly, so the baby does not roll between.

For a 2-month-old, use a firm crib or bassinet with a fitted sheet. Avoid soft bedding and stuffed animals to keep them safe while sleeping.

MemberApril 16, 2024 at 11:09 pmDo use products intended for sleep including cribs, bassinet, play yard and bedside sleepers that meet federal requirements. Do remember “Bare is Best” – nothing but a fitted sheet in a crib, bassinet or play yard. Do always place baby on their back

Excellent advice, Storay! Prioritizing safety and simplicity is key for infant sleep equipment.
