As mentioned, lots of folks are having a bad time at the mo', hell, I've spent a chunk of the day in bed wishing I could sleep and being generally down and uncommunicative.
So for those of you who are cheered by such things, I present photos of the kids.
It is an Amby Baby hammock. Shaz did lots of research and found that these had the best rep. She contacted the maker over the couple of incidents that had happened - all were in the US, all were times when the people using them had done the wrong thing i.e. placing it in a laundry, putting it together with incomplete parts, etc. There's been no issues in any other country.
I gave you all that preamble, because we love it, and would happily recommend it. It is portable, comes with a carry bag, and isn't too bad to put together once you've done it a couple of times. It weighs a bit, but not more than most portable cots.
We thought MaybeZoe's early nights and solid sleeping were down to her being an easier bub, but while she is an easier bub, Shaz found that a few nights without the hammock meant that bub didn't get to sleep until much later.
One of the joys of the Amby Baby is that you can put the bub in there, rock and bounce her as much as she needs without having to hold her weight, and when she drops off to sleep, she's already in bed and doesn't have to be moved.
Sharon sits on the bed, rocking and bouncing her with one hand, and surfing the net on the laptop with the other :)

Is that a hammock type bed? How do you find it? Is it portable or does it have to stay in the same spot?
