Buying a Pram Newborn
Parents and caregivers can count on pushchairs travel systems and prams to be multi-functional and versatile. They are the co-pilots on the new adventure of your child.
A pram newborn is dedicated to newborns and babies and has an incredibly sturdy, deep carrycot with soft and secure walls.
A pram is equipped with a bassinet, however it can also be converted into a stroller when the baby is ready.
Safety
Newborns are extremely fragile and need to be kept as safe as you can. Purchasing a stroller or pram with safety features will ensure that your baby is safe and safe during their travels. A stroller or pram should have a working break, a 5-point harness (2 shoulder straps; 2 waist straps; and the crotch belt) and a wrist tether for the person driving it. Check that the pram you choose meets these standards.
Look for a pram that allows your infant to ride in the recommended lying flat position. This position is supportive for the baby and prevents the risk of a dangerous curve in the spine which can cause spinal problems. By keeping the airways open, it reduces the chance of SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). Most prams can be used as early as birth. They come with an adjustable seat that reclines into a lay-flat mode for infants, and can be converted into a pushchair unit for older children.
The suspension of prams is vital as it will affect how smooth the ride is. A pram with many suspensions is likely to be more expensive but it could be worth paying for this feature if you plan on using your pram everyday for a couple of years or more.
Always read the directions and carefully read the warning labels on your pram or stroller. When not in use, you should keep your stroller away from potential dangers like traffic, bicycles or other people. It is also important to remove any bags or other objects from the handles, since they could cause your baby to get caught or suffocate.
Even if the baby is asleep, it's not an ideal idea to leave a stroller or pram unattended. They could wriggle into the pram and become stuck, or be pushed away and cause injuries. It's also not a good idea to hang bags or other items off the handles as they could fall and hit your baby in the head.
Comfort
It is crucial that babies have the option to lie flat, as it aids in lung and back development. Cocoons or carriers 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. Some seats, like the bucket-style seat found on the egg2, aren't able to recline completely flat, but offer a comfortable ride for your child.
Some prams have a separate seat or bassinet for infants. This lets you effortlessly switch between sleeping and sitting positions depending on the requirements of your baby. It is commonly described as a "travel system and is the very first option you should test with your baby.
Choose a stroller with two shoulder straps (ideally with padding) and a sturdy five-point safety harness that fits your child's body safely. Be sure to check for gaps, or loose areas, where fingers could become trapped. Also make sure the buckles are easy for older children to operate. It's also worth considering whether you'd like a pram that faces the parent or not. It's great to keep an eye on your little one and helps them feel reassured by the familiar sight of their parents.
Our testers with parents enjoyed the features of some prams, like the Graco Near2Me, which lets you raise your baby and lower it by pressing one button. This is a fantastic way to maintain eye contact with your baby and keep in touch, particularly when they're asleep. If you're in the market for a travel system, be sure to check the frame is compatible with the car capsule you've chosen to avoid you having to wake them up while changing between pram, car and back.
Convenience
When buying a pram newborn it is essential to consider the needs of your baby's transportation. Some prams come with the option of a carrycot or bassinet which allow your baby to be laid flat (essential for their spinal development and breathing) while others come with a seat that can recline to a lying-flat position. It is important to check out the other accessories the pram comes with like a changing bag and footmuff which are essential for keeping your baby warm during colder weather.
Some prams and strollers can be converted to travel systems. You can connect a car pod to a frame with adaptors, meaning you can transfer your child from the car to the double pushchair without disturbing them. These are useful when you have a busy schedule or you do not have enough space in your car's boot to accommodate the pram. But, you must keep in mind that you will need to wait until your baby is old enough to sit up by themselves before you can change them from a car capsule into pushchair.
Our parent tester discovered that the ability to raise or lower the seat of her 10-month-old son was a wonderful feature. An excellent example is the Graco Near2Me that can be adjusted to lower the seat, allowing your child to 'glide towards you at the press of a button and stay in constant eye contact.
Finally, make sure your pram newborn has a solid base and wheels that are able to handle potholes and bumps. Also, make sure you are able to fold it up easily, and check that the safety harness is functional and fits comfortably (five-point rather than three-point) and can be adjusted as your child grows. It should be possible to store bags for shopping and changing under the pram (but keep in mind that too much weight can cause it to topple over). If you're unsure of which model to go with, try out a variety of models at the local retailer.
