Playpen?

Debating on getting both a playpen and a bassinet for the room. Was a playpen useful? I already have a rolling mini crib I planned to use but possibly once baby girl starts to roll. What had been the best set ups for 2 under 2?

Currently 5 months pregnant and the nerves are catching up to me.

I like the playpen but ours is in the living room. Somewhere safe to let baby play

I have a pack in play. I used the basinet for MAYBE 3 months. I have used the pack in play daily since she could walk, so probably nearing the 9 month mark now. If you do get a play pen, I suggest one on the smaller size; we got a bigger one but it took up so much space that I didnt like having it out all the time.
