In light of recent massive crib recalls we've been looking at options beyond the crib here at P&B. The other day we looked at co-sleeping. That's just one crib-free option though. Another option is a mix of bassinet-minded sleepers or a cradle and then either a move to co-sleeping arrangement or a play pen.
