So i am debating whether or not i should buy a mini crib or just buy a mattress for the pack n play.
The mini crib mattress is now offered in 5 1 2 inch thickness which is thicker than the original 1 3 inch thickness also available.
A pack n play should weigh around 15 30lbs depending on how many attachments it has.
The main difference between a mini crib and pack n play is that mini cribs are mostly just a smaller version of a full size crib and do not fold up where pack n plays can be folded making them very portable and they are used for much more than just sleeping.
Whether you are considering the pack and play easy to assemble and economical or a lavish crib in a pretty finish comfort access to baby and safety all come into play when choosing the perfect space for baby to sleep.
Both are smaller from full size cribs but the size of mini cribs is not the same as the size of pack n plays.
