Buying a Pram Newborn

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

A pram newborn 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 be converted to a stroller once the baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns are extremely fragile and need to be protected as much as you can. A stroller or pram equipped with safety features will keep your baby safe and comfortable during travel. The most essential requirements for any stroller or pram include a functioning brake, a five-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, 2 waist straps and the crotch strap) and an adjustable wrist tether strap for the person pushing the pram. Make sure the pram you select is in compliance with these requirements.

Find a pram that allows your baby to ride in the position recommended for lying flat. This position supports your baby and helps prevent the development of a risky spinal curve which could lead to problems with their spine. By keeping the airways open, it decreases the chance of SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). Most prams can be used right from birth. They have a seat unit which reclines into a lay-flat position for infants, and can be converted into a pushchair sale for older children.

The suspension of a pram will determine how smooth it rides. A pram with lots of spring suspension will cost more however it is worth the extra cost in the event that you plan to use your pram each day for a couple of years or longer.

Always read the instructions and carefully read the warning labels on your stroller or pram. When not using it, park your pram away from dangers such as bicycles, traffic or other people. It is also a good idea to take any bags or other items off the handles, as they could cause your baby to become trapped or even die.

Even if the baby seems asleep, it's never recommended to leave a pram or stroller unattended. They can wriggle and become trapped, or the pram may be thrown away and the child could be injured. It's not recommended to hang bags or other things from the handles because they may fall and strike your baby's head.

Comfort

Possibility of lying flat seating is a essential for infants because it helps improve lung and back development. Cocoons or carrycots are available on many prams. They create a nest-like space that is a comfortable place for your baby and can be detached easily from the frame. Others, like the egg2's bucket style seat don't recline to lie flat but still offer a comfortable ride to your baby.

Some prams also feature a separate bassinet, newborn inset or stroller seat so you can easily change between sitting and sleeping modes based on your baby's requirements. It is commonly described as a "travel system' and is the first configuration you should try with your baby.

Find a pram that has two shoulder straps (ideally cushioned) and a functional five-point safety harness that fits your baby's body securely. Check that there are no gaps or places where fingers could become trapped. Also, ensure that the buckles are simple for older children to operate. It is also important to consider if you'd like a parent-facing pram. It is great for keeping an ear on your child and helps them feel more secure having their parents around.

Some prams, such as the Graco Near2Me have a handy raise and lower function that allows your baby to come right up to your face at the touch of the button, which our parent testers loved! This is a great method of keeping eye contact with your baby and stay in touch, particularly when they're sleepy. If you're in the market for an appropriate travel system, be sure the frame's compatibility with the car capsule you've chosen to avoid you having to wake them up when changing between car, pram and back again.

Convenience

When buying a pram newborn it is essential to consider your baby's transport needs. Some prams include an infant bassinet, carrycot or a seat that can recline to a flat position. This is essential to ensure your baby's spinal development and breathing. It's also a good idea to look at what other accessories the pram has, such as a changing bag and footmuff which are essential for keeping your baby warm during colder weather.

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 baby from the car to the pram without disturbing them. These are useful when you have a busy schedule or you don't have enough space in your car's boot to accommodate the pram. But, you must be aware that you'll need to wait until your baby is old enough to sit independently before you transform them from a car capsule into the pushchair.

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

Also, ensure that your pram newborn has a sturdy base with wheels that can withstand bumps and potholes and that you are able to fold it down with ease, and check that the safety harness is in good working order that fits comfortably and securely (five-point instead of three-point) and is able to be adjusted as your child grows. You will also be able to store shopping and changing bags in the basket underneath (although remember that putting on too much weight could cause it to tip over). If you're unsure of which model to pick, check out a variety of models at your local retailer.
