Buying a Pram Newborn

Prams and pushchairs are multi-functional, multi-purpose partners of caregivers and parents. They're the co-pilots of the new adventure of your child.

A pram for newborns is dedicated to infants and newborns. It comes with a an incredibly sturdy, deep carrycot that has soft and secure walls.

A pram typically comes with a bassinet but can be converted to an infant stroller seat once baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns are extremely fragile and must be kept as secure as you can. Buying a pram or foldable stroller equipped with safety features will ensure that your baby is secure and secure during travel. The most essential requirements for any stroller or pram are a functioning brake, a five-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, 2 waist straps and a Crotch strap) and an adjustable wrist tether strap for the person who is pushing the pram. Verify that the stroller you select meets these requirements.

Find a stroller that allows your baby to ride in the position recommended for lying flat. This position supports the baby and helps prevent the risk of a dangerous spinal curve that can lead to spinal problems. By keeping the airways open, it decreases the risk for SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). The majority of prams can be used right from the time of birth. They have an adjustable seat that reclines to lay flat for infants, and can be converted into a pushchair unit for older children.

The suspension of a pram is important because it affects how smooth the ride. A pram that has many spring suspensions will cost more however, it's worth the extra expense in the event that you plan to use your pram every day for a couple of years or longer.

It is important to be sure to read the instruction manual and examine the warning labels for your pram or stroller. When not using it, park your pram away from potential dangers like bicycles, traffic or other people. It is also a good idea to remove any bags or objects off the handles, as they could cause your baby to be trapped or even suffocate.

A stroller or pram should not be left unattended with a baby inside even if they are asleep. They can wriggle and become stuck or the pram might be thrown away and the child might be injured. It's not a good idea to hang bags or other objects on the handles since they could fall and hit your baby in the head.

Comfort

Possibility of lying flat seating is a must for newborns, since it aids in better back and lung development. Cocoons or carriers are available on many prams. They create a cozy environment that is comfortable for your baby and can be detached easily from the frame. Some seats, such as the bucket-style seat on the egg2, aren't able to recline completely flat, but they provide an enjoyable ride for your child.

Some prams include a separate seat or bassinet for infants. This allows you to easily switch between sitting and sleeping positions based on the requirements of your baby. This is often called a 'travel system' and is the first configuration you should try with your baby.

Choose a stroller with two shoulder straps which are cushioned and a five-point safety harness. It must fit your child's body perfectly. Make sure there aren't any gaps or places where fingers could become trapped. Also make sure the buckles are safe for older children to operate. It's also worth considering whether you'd prefer a parent facing folding pram or not - it's perfect to watch your child, and also helps children feel secure with the familiarity of their parents.

Some prams, such as the Graco Near2Me have a nifty raise and lower function that can bring your baby up to your face at the touch of an button, which our parent testers absolutely loved! This is a great way to keep in touch with your baby, particularly if they are sleeping. If you're looking for a travel system, make sure the frame's compatibility with your chosen car capsule, as this will save you from having to wake them up every time you're changing between car, twin pram and back.

Convenience

It is important to take into account the needs of your baby's transportation when buying a newborn pram. Some prams have carrycots, a bassinet or a seat that reclines to an upright position. This is important to ensure your baby's spinal development and breathing. It's important to take a look at the other accessories the pram has like the footmuff and changing bag that are essential to keep your baby warm in colder months.

Some prams and strollers can be converted into travel systems. You can connect a car pod to a frame with adaptors, meaning you can transfer your child from the car to the pushchair without waking them up. These are great if your lifestyle is busy or you don't have enough space in your car boot to accommodate a pram. However, you should be aware that you'll need wait until your child is old enough to sit on their own before you convert them from a car capsule to the pushchair.

Another feature you may want to keep an eye on is the ability to raise and lower your infant's seat from a low to a high setting, which allows you to maintain eye contact with them and keeps them close to you, which our tester for parents found extremely useful for her 10-month-old boy! A good example is the Graco Near2Me, that can be adjusted to lower the seat, allowing your child to 'glide into your arms with the push of a button and stay in constant eye contact.

Make sure that your baby's pram has a sturdy base and wheels that can withstand bumps and potholes and that you are able to fold it up easily and ensure that the safety harness is functional and fits comfortably (five-point instead of three-point) and can be adjusted as your child grows. You should also be able store shopping and changing bags in the basket underneath (although be aware that loading the pram with too much weight could cause it to tip over). If you're not sure what model to go with, try some different models at the local retailer.
