Buying a Pram Newborn

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

A pram for newborn for newborns 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 but can be converted to an infant stroller seat once baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns should be protected as much as is possible. A stroller or pram that has safety features will ensure that your baby is safe and comfortable during travel. A stroller or pram should have a working break and a 5-point harness (2 shoulder straps and two waist straps and a crotch belt) and a wrist tether for the person pushing it. Be sure that the model you are considering is up to the standards before you buy.

Find a pram that allows your baby to ride in the recommended lie-flat position. This position is supportive for your baby and avoids a dangerous spinal curve which could lead to problems with their spine. By keeping the airways open, it decreases the risk for SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). The majority of prams that can be used from birth will come with the seat unit, which will recline into a lie-flat pram mode for infants and convert into a pushchair seat unit for older children.

The suspension of prams is vital because it affects the smoothness of the ride. A pram with many suspensions is likely to be more costly but it may be worth it to purchase this feature if you intend to use your pram every day for a few years or longer.

You should always take the time to read the instruction manual and check the warning labels for your pram or foldable stroller. When not using it, keep your stroller away from dangers like traffic, bicycles or other people. It is recommended to remove any bags or objects from the handles as they could cause your baby to be caught or suffocate.

Even if the baby is asleep, it's never recommended to leave a stroller or pram unattended. They can wriggle and become trapped or the pram could slide away and the baby could be injured. Hanging bags or other items from the handles isn't recommended as they can fall and strike your child in the head.

Comfort

It is crucial that babies are able to lie flat as this aids in lung and back development. Cocoons or carriers 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. Certain seats, like the bucket-style seat found on the egg2, don't recline completely flat, but they provide a comfortable ride for your child.

Some prams come with an additional bassinet or seat for a newborn. This lets you effortlessly switch between sleeping and sitting positions depending on what your baby needs. It is commonly referred to as a 'travel system and is the very first thing you should do with your newborn.

Look for a pram with two shoulder straps which are cushioned and a five-point safety harness. It must fit your child's body snugly. Check that there are no gaps or loose places where fingers could become trapped. Also, make sure that the buckles are simple for older children to use. It's also worth considering whether you'd like a pram that faces the parent or not - it's great for keeping an eye on your little one and helps them feel secure by the familiarity of their parents.

Our parent testers loved the feature of certain prams, like the Graco Near2Me that lets you raise your baby at the push of the button. This is a fantastic way to maintain eye contact with your baby, and stay in touch, particularly when they're sleeping. If you're searching for a travel system compatible with the car capsule you pick it is not necessary to wake your baby to switch between the car and pram.

Convenience

It is important to consider your baby's transportation needs when you purchase a new baby's pram. Some prams come with 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 is also important to know the other accessories included in the pram, for instance a footmuff or a changing bag. These are essential to keep your baby warm when it's cold.

It's also worth noting that some prams and strollers can be converted into travel systems, which allows you to connect a car capsule with the frame using adaptors, so that you can transfer your child between the car and the pushchair with car seat without having to wake them up. These are useful for those who have a hectic lifestyle or don't have a big enough boot for a pram capsule, although it's worth keeping in mind that your baby will need to be old enough and able to sit up independently before you can switch between the car capsule and twin pram.

Our tester's mother found that the ability to raise or lower the seat of her son's 10 months old was a great feature. One good example is the Graco Near2Me which can be lowered to allow your little one to 'glide' up to you by pressing the button, and remain in constant eye contact.

Finally, make sure your pram newborn has a sturdy base and wheels that are able to handle bumps and potholes and that you are able to fold it up easily, and check that the safety harness is functional, fits comfortably and securely (five-point rather than three-point) and can be adjusted as your child grows. You will also be able to store shopping and changing bags inside the basket beneath (although remember that loading the pram with too much weight can cause it to tip over). If you're not sure which model to go with, try out a variety of models at your local retailer.
