What age to babies outgrow a bassinet?

Babies typically outgrow their bassinet between 3 to 6 months when they can roll over or reach a certain weight limit set by the manufacturer.. As mentioned, this can vary depending on the individual baby's size and development, so it's important to keep an eye on your little one and make the transition to a crib or playard when the time is right. Signs that your baby may be ready to move out of their bassinet include:

* Rolling over: Once your baby learns to roll over, they can no longer safely sleep in a bassinet, as they could roll over and become stuck against the side of the bassinet or roll out of it.

* Reaching the weight limit: Most bassinets have a weight limit of around 15-20 pounds. Once your baby reaches this weight limit, it's time to transition them to a crib or playard.

* Becoming too tall for the bassinet: If your baby's head is near the top of the bassinet mattress or if their feet are touching the end of the bassinet, it's time for a bigger sleeping space.

To ensure the safety of your child, watch out for any signs that they may have outgrown their bassinet and be prepared to make a smooth transition to a crib or playard when the time is right.
