Instead of buying 2 beds, it is better for you to consider buying 1 baby bed in the bedroom and 1 baby playpal in the living room. Sometimes, the baby can sleep in the bedroom. If the bedroom is too hot or with too much sunshine, you can take the baby out to sleep in the living room.
As the baby will grow up very fast, he or she will roll about, climb up or stand up in about 6 - 12 months. Thus, the playpal can let him or her to sleep, play or move about within a safe and limited space. Under the circumstances, you can do your housework and look at him or her at the same time. All you need to do is putting some soft toys in the playpal with the baby and the baby in the playpal is within your sight.
Please be reminded that when you choose the playpal, you must pay attention whether the corners and joints of the playpal have soft pads for coverage. Otherwise, you have to buy some sponge to cover the sharp corners or joints. In case your baby moves, the sharp angles will not hurt him or her.
