Buying a Pram Newborn

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

A pram for newborns is a special stroller for newborns and babies. It has a sturdy, deep carrycot and soft walls that are safe and secure.

A foldable pram is typically equipped with a bassinet, but it can be transformed into a stroller seat once baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns must be protected as much as is possible. A pram or stroller with safety features will keep your baby secure and comfortable while traveling. The basic requirements for any pram or stroller include a functioning brake, a 5-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, two waist straps, and an crotch strap) and an adjustable wrist tether strap for the person who is pushing the pram. Make sure the pram you select meets these requirements.

Find a stroller that allows your baby to ride in the recommended lying-flat position. This position helps your baby and helps prevent a dangerous curve in their spine that could cause spinal issues. By keeping the airways open, it lowers the risk for SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). Most prams that can be used from birth will have an infant seat that can recline into a lie-flat pram mode for babies younger than the age of one and convert into a pushchair seat unit for older children.

The suspension of the pram will determine how smooth it is. A pram with lots of suspension is likely to be more costly but it might be worth the cost of this feature if you plan on using your pram everyday for a couple of years or more.

It is important to be sure to read the instruction manual and check the warning labels for your stroller or pram. It is also important to ensure that your stroller is parked in a secure location away from bicycles, traffic or any other dangers when it is not being used. It is recommended to take any bags or other items from the handles since they could cause your baby to get trapped or even die.

Even if the baby seems asleep, it's not recommended to leave a pram or stroller unattended. They could wiggle and get trapped or the pram could roll away and they might be injured. 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 of lying flat, as it aids in lung and back development. Cocoons or carriers are available on a variety of prams. They create a cozy environment that is a comfortable place for your baby and can be removed easily from the frame. Others, such as the egg2's bucket style seat don't recline to lie flat but still provide a comfy ride for your baby.

Some prams have an additional bassinet or seat for infants. This lets you effortlessly switch between sitting and sleeping positions based on the needs of your baby. This is often described as a "best travel stroller system and is the first option you should test with your newborn.

Find a pram that has two shoulder straps that are ideally padded, and a five-point safety harness. It should fit your baby's body perfectly. Check that there are no gaps or loose places where fingers could get caught. Also, ensure that the buckles are safe for older children to use. It's also worth considering whether you'd like a parent facing pram or not - it's great to watch your child and helping children feel secure with 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 great method of keeping eye contact with your baby and stay in touch, especially when they're sleeping. If you're looking for an appropriate travel system, be sure the frame is compatible with your chosen car capsule, as this will save you having to wake them up every time you're changing between double pram and pushchair, car and back again.

Convenience

When you are shopping for a new baby's pram, it is important to consider your baby's needs for transport. Some prams have a bassinet or carrycot, which allow your baby to lie flat (essential for their development of their spine and breathing) while others come with seats that can recline to a lying-flat position. It's also a good idea to take a look at the other accessories are included in the pram, such as an infant changing bag and a footmuff which are essential for keeping your baby warm during 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 move your baby from the car to the pram without waking them up. This is a great option for those who have a hectic schedule or don't have the big enough boot for prams, however it's important to keep in mind that your child must be old enough and able to sit up on their own before you can change them from car capsule to pram.

Another feature to consider is the ability to raise and lower the infant's seat from a low to high setting, which helps maintain eye contact with them and keeps them close to you, something that our tester for parents found extremely useful for her 10-month-old boy! One good example is the Graco Near2Me which can be lowered to allow your baby to glide towards you by pressing a button and stay in constant eye contact.

You should be able to put bags for shopping and changing in the basket underneath. You should also be able to keep changing and shopping bags in the basket underneath (although keep in mind that loading the pram with excessive weight can cause it to tip over). If you're unsure of which model to pick, check out a variety of models at your local retailer.
