The Doctor's cot was the cot — as stated by the Eleventh Doctor — which the Doctor "slept in" during his initial incarnation's infancy.
The Doctor may have had a child of his own to use the cot, however this is unconfirmed.
It had writing in Gallifreyan carved into the sides. After Amy Pond demanded to know what it says, River Song pointed to the writing, said "it doesn't translate but this will," and handed Amy a piece of cloth that said "River Song." The Doctor still had it stored within the TARDIS during his eleventh incarnation, indicating he was sentimental about it.
He put the Ganger-infant of Melody Pond in it to rest after he had rescued her on Demon's Run. Upon seeing the cot, Amy Pond pointed out "the Doctor's first stars" hanging above the cot. (TV: A Good Man Goes to War)
He later retrieved it from Demons Run during his search for Melody Pond and kept the cot in the TARDIS drawing room. (GAME: The Gunpowder Plot)
Clara Oswald came across the cot when she was trapped in the TARDIS after it was damaged by a salvage team. (TV: Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS)
