Buying a Pram Newborn

Prams and pushchairs are multifunctional, versatile companions of caregivers and parents. They are the co-pilots of your child's journey.

A pram newborn is a must for infants and newborns. It comes with a a deep, sturdy carrycot with soft and safe walls.

A pram will typically come with a bassinet. However, it can be converted to an infant stroller seat once baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns are incredibly fragile and should be protected as much as is possible. Buying a pram or stroller with safety features will ensure that your baby is comfortable and secure during travel. A stroller or pram must have a break that works, a 5-point harness (2 shoulder straps; 2 waist straps; and the crotch belt) and a wrist tether for the person driving it. Make sure the pram you select meets these requirements.

Find a stroller that allows your infant to ride in the recommended lie-flat position. This position helps support the baby and prevents the risk of a dangerous curve in the spine which can lead to spinal problems. By keeping the airways open, it reduces the chance of SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). The majority of prams can be used right from the moment of birth. They come with seats that recline into a lay-flat mode for younger infants and converts into a pushchair travel system for older children.

The suspension on prams is vital because it can affect how smooth the ride. A pram that has many spring suspensions will be more expensive, but it is worth the extra expense in the event that you plan to use your pram every for a while or longer.

Always read the directions and read the warning labels on your pram or stroller. It is also important to ensure that your stroller is parked in a secure location free of bicycles, traffic or other hazards when it is not being used. It is also a good idea to remove any bags or objects from the handles as they could cause your baby to be caught or suffocate.

Even if the baby seems asleep, it's never a good idea to leave a stroller or pram unattended. They could wriggle into the stroller and become stuck, or be pushed away and cause injuries. Hanging bags or other objects on the handles isn't recommended because they could fall and strike your child in the head.

Comfort

It is essential that newborns are able to lie flat as this aids in lung and back development. Many prams have cocoons or carrycots that creates a warm nest-like space for your baby and is able to be removed from the frame. Some seats, such as the bucket-style seat found on the egg2, don't recline completely flat, but they provide the comfort of your child.

Some prams also have an additional bassinet, infant inset or stroller seat so you can easily switch between sleeping and sitting modes based on your baby's needs. It is commonly called a 'travel system and is the first thing you should do with your baby.

Look for a pram with two shoulder straps (ideally with padding) and a five-point safety harness that fits your child's body securely. Be sure there aren't gaps or loose areas where fingers could get trapped and that the buckles are simple to use, particularly for older children. It's also worth considering whether you'd like a pram that faces the parent or not. It's ideal to keep an eye on your little one and helps children feel secure with the familiar sight of their parents.

Some prams, such as the Graco Near2Me, come with an awesome raise and lower function that allows your baby to come up to your face at the touch of a button, which our parents testers absolutely loved! This is a great method to keep eye contact with your baby and keep in touch, particularly when they're sleepy. If you are searching for a travel system compatible with the car capsule you select it is not necessary to wake your baby up to switch between the car and pram.

Convenience

When buying a pram newborn it is essential to consider the needs of your baby's transportation. Some prams include a bassinet or carrycot, that allows your baby to lie flat (essential for their spinal development and breathing) while others come with a seat that can recline into a flat position. You should also check the other accessories that are included in the pram, such as the footmuff and the changing bag. These are essential to keep your baby warm in the event of cold.

Some strollers and prams travel system can be converted into best travel pushchair systems. You can connect a car pod to the frame with adaptors so that you can move your child from the car to the pram 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 the pram. However, you should keep in mind that you'll need wait until your baby is old enough to sit up independently before you transform them from a car capsule into pushchair.

Our parent tester discovered that the ability to raise or lower the seat of her son's 10 months old was a fantastic feature. One example is the Graco Near2Me which lets your child 'glide closer to you at the touch of an button.

Finally, make sure your pram newborn has a sturdy base with wheels that are able to handle potholes and bumps. Ensure that you are able to fold it down easily and make sure the safety harness is in good working order that fits comfortably and securely (five-point rather than three-point) and can be adjusted as your child grows. It should be possible to store bags for changing and shopping beneath the pram (but remember that too much weight could cause it to tip over). If you're unsure what to choose, try different models at the local store.
