Buying a Pram Newborn

Parents and caregivers can rely on pushchairs and prams to be multi-functional and versatile. They are the co-pilots for your child's new journey.

A pram for newborns is a must for newborns and babies and has a deep, sturdy carrycot with soft and secure walls.

A pram typically comes with a bassinet, but it can be converted into a stroller seat once baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns are extremely fragile and must be protected as much as you can. A pram or stroller equipped with safety features will keep your baby safe and comfortable during travel. A stroller or pram should have a break that works and a 5-point harness (2 shoulder straps; 2 waist straps; and a crotch belt) and a wrist tether for the person driving it. Make sure that the pram you choose is up to the standards before purchasing.

Find a pram For newborn that allows your baby to ride in the recommended position of lying flat. This position is supportive for the baby and prevents an unintentionally dangerous spinal curve that can cause spinal problems. It reduces the risk of SUID (Sudden Unexpected Infant Death Syndrome) or asphyxiation by keeping airways open. Most prams that are used from birth will have an infant seat that can recline to a lay-flat pram mode for younger babies and then transform into a pushchair unit for older children.

The suspension of a pram will determine how smoothly it rides. A pram with a lot of spring suspension will cost more however it is worth the extra expense if you plan to use your pram each day for a few years or longer.

Always read the directions and read the warning labels on your pram or double stroller. It is also important to ensure that your stroller is placed in a secure location free of bicycles, traffic or other hazards when it's not being used. It is also important to remove any bags or other items from the handles, as they can cause your baby to become trapped or even suffocate.

Even if the baby seems asleep, it's not an ideal idea to leave a pram or stroller unattended. They can get wriggling and become stuck or the pram might slide away and the baby could be injured. It is also not a good idea to hang bags or other items on the handles since they could fall and strike your baby's head.

Comfort

It is crucial that babies have the option to lie flat, as it aids in lung and back development. Carrycots or cocoons are available on a variety of prams. They create a nest-like space that is a comfortable place for your baby and can be detached easily from the frame. Others, such as the egg2's bucket-style seat do not recline to lie flat, but they still provide a comfy ride for your baby.

Some prams also feature an additional bassinet, infant inset or stroller seat, so you can easily switch between sitting and sleeping modes according to your baby's needs. This is often referred to as a "travel system" and is the first configuration that you should try out with your newborn.

Choose a stroller with two shoulder straps which are cushioned and a five-point safety harness. It must fit your child's body perfectly. Be sure that there aren't any gaps or areas that are loose in which fingers can get caught and that the buckles are comfortable to use, particularly for older children. It's also worth considering whether you'd like a pram that faces the parent or not - it's perfect to keep an eye on your child and helping them feel secure by the familiar sight of their parents.

Our parents who tested the product loved the feature of certain prams like the Graco Near2Me which allows you to raise your baby at the push of a button. This is a great method of keeping in touch with your baby, especially if they are sleeping. If you're in the market for an appropriate travel system, be sure that whether the frame is compatible with your car capsule, as this will save you from having to wake them up while changing between car, pram and back.

Convenience

It is important to take into account your baby's transportation needs when purchasing a baby pram. Some prams include a carrycot or bassinet, which allows your baby to lie flat (essential for their development of their spine and breathing) while others come with seats that can recline into a flat position. It's important to take a look at the other accessories the pram comes with, such as an infant changing bag and a footmuff which are essential for keeping your baby warm during the colder winter months.

Some strollers and prams can be converted into travel systems. You can connect an auto pod to the frame with adaptors, meaning you can move your child from the car to the pram without waking them up. These are useful if your lifestyle is busy or you don't have enough space your car's boot to accommodate the pram. But, you must be aware that you will need to wait until your child is old enough to sit on their own before you change them from a car capsule to triple pushchair.

Another feature you may want to look out for is the possibility of raising and lowering your infant's seat from a low setting to a high setting, which allows you to maintain eye contact with them and keeps them close to you, something that our parent tester found really useful with her 10-month-old boy! A good example is the Graco Near2Me, that can be adjusted to lower the seat, allowing your baby to glide towards you by pressing the button, and remain in constant eye contact.

You should be able to put bags for shopping and changing in the basket underneath. It should be possible to store shopping bags and changing bags under the babiie pram (but remember that too much weight could cause it to topple over). If you're not sure which to choose, test different models at the local store.
