Buying a Pram Newborn

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

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

A pram is equipped with a bassinet. However, it can also be converted into a stroller when the baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns need to be secured to the greatest extent possible. A stroller or pram bags equipped with safety features will ensure that your baby is in a safe and comfortable environment during travel. The essential requirements for any pram or stroller are to have a working brake, a 5-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, two waist straps, and a Crotch strap) and a wrist tether strap for the person pushing the pram. Check that your chosen pram meets these standards before you purchase.

Find a stroller that allows your baby to travel in the position recommended for lying flat. This position supports your baby and avoids the development of a risky curve in their spine that could cause spinal problems. It reduces the chance of SUID (Sudden Unexpected Infant Death Syndrome) or asphyxiation by ensuring that the airways are open. Most prams are able to be used right from birth. They have a seat unit which reclines to lay flat for infants, and can be converted into a double pushchair for older children.

The suspension of the pram will determine how smooth it rides. A pram that has many spring suspensions will be more expensive, but it is worth the extra cost when you intend to use your pram each for a while or more.

You should always make sure to read the instruction manual thoroughly and look over the warning labels on your stroller or pram. It is also important to ensure that your pram is parked in a secure location free of bicycles, traffic or any other dangers when it's not being used. It is recommended to remove any bags or items from the handles as they could cause your baby to get trapped or even die.

A stroller or pram should not be left alone with a baby in it, even if they are asleep. They could wiggle and get stuck or the pram might roll away and they could be injured. It's also not a good idea to hang bags or other objects off the handles as they could fall and hit your baby in the head.

Comfort

Possibility of lying flat seating is an absolute essential for infants because it helps improve lung and back development. A lot of prams come with cocoons or carrycots that creates a cosy, nest-like environment for your infant and is able to be removed from the frame. Some seats, like the bucket-style seat on egg2, can't be reclined completely flat, but provide the comfort of your child.

Some prams have a separate bassinet or seat for a newborn. This lets you effortlessly switch between sitting and sleeping positions based on what your baby needs. This is sometimes described as a "travel system" and is the first option to try out with your newborn.

Look for a pram with two shoulder straps (ideally cushioned) and a functional five-point safety harness that fits your bub's body securely. Be sure to check for gaps or loose areas, where fingers could be trapped. Also, ensure that the buckles are easy for older children to operate. It's also worth considering whether you'd like a parent facing pram or not. It's great to keep an eye on your little one and helps children feel secure with the familiarity of their parents.

Our parents who tested the product loved the feature of certain prams such as the Graco Near2Me, which allows you to raise your baby and lower it at the push of the button. This is an excellent method of keeping connected to your baby, especially when they are asleep. If you are looking for a travel system that is compatible with the car capsule you pick, you will not have to wake your baby up to switch between the car and pram.

Convenience

It is essential to consider your baby's needs for transportation when buying a newborn pram. Some prams include carrycots, a bassinet or seat that reclines to a flat position. This is important to ensure your baby's spinal development and breathing. It's also a good idea to check out the other accessories the pram comes with, such as the footmuff and changing bag which are essential for keeping your baby warm in colder months.

It's also worth noting that some strollers and prams can be transformed into travel systems, allowing you to connect a car capsule to the frame via adaptors to allow you to easily transfer your child between the car and the pushchair without having to wake them up. These are useful if your lifestyle is busy or you do not have enough space in your car's boot to accommodate the pram. However, you should be aware that you'll need to wait until your child is old enough to sit up by themselves before you can convert them from a car capsule into pushchair sale.

Our parent tester discovered that the ability to raise or lower the seat of her 10-month-old son was a wonderful feature. A good example is the Graco Near2Me, which can be lowered to allow your child to 'glide into your arms by pressing an button and maintain constant eye contact.

You should also be able to keep shopping bags and changing bags in the basket underneath. You should be able store bags for shopping and changing underneath the pram (but be aware that excessive weight could cause it to tip over). If you're not sure which model to go with, try out a few different models at the local retailer.
