Buying a Pram Newborn

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

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

A pram typically comes with a bassinet. However, it can be transformed into a stroller seat when baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns are incredibly fragile and need to be protected as much as is possible. A stroller or pram with safety features will ensure that your baby is secure and comfortable while traveling. The basic requirements for any pram or stroller are to have a working brake, a five-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, 2 waist straps and an crotch strap) and the wrist tether strap that is for the person pushing the pram. Verify that the stroller you select meets these requirements.

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

The suspension on a pram is important as it will affect how smooth the ride is. A pram with a lot of spring suspension will be more expensive, but it is worth the extra expense in the event that you plan to use your pram each for a while or longer.

Always take the time to read the instruction manual thoroughly and examine the warning labels for your stroller or pram. Also, ensure that your stroller is placed in a secure location away from bicycles, traffic or other hazards when it's not being used. You should also remove any bags or other items that are not removed from the handles, as they can cause your baby to become caught or suffocate.

A stroller or pram should never be left unattended with a baby in it even if they're asleep. They can wriggle and become stuck or the double pram might roll away and they might be injured. Hanging bags, or other items from the handles isn't an ideal idea since they could fall and hit your child in the head.

Comfort

Possibility of lying flat seating is a necessity for babies, because it helps improve back and lung development. Cocoons or carrycots are available on a variety of prams. They create a cozy environment that is comfortable 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 they still offer a comfortable ride to your baby.

Some prams also feature an extra bassinet, newborn stroller or inset seat so that you can easily change between sitting and sleeping modes according to your baby's requirements. It is commonly described as a "travel system and is the very first thing you should do with your newborn.

Look for a pram that has two shoulder straps which are cushioned and a five-point security harness. It must fit your child's body snugly. Be sure there aren't gaps or loose areas in which fingers can get caught and that the buckles are simple to use, particularly for older children. It's also worth considering whether you'd like a parent facing pram or not. It's great for keeping an eye on your child and helping them feel secure by the familiarity of their parents.

Some prams, such as the Graco Near2Me, come with a handy raise and lower feature that brings your baby up to your face at the push of an button, which our parent testers loved! This is a fantastic way to maintain eye contact with your baby and keep in touch, especially when they're asleep. If you're in the market for a travel system, be sure that whether the frame is compatible with the car capsule you've chosen, as this will save the need to wake them up while changing between pram, car and back again.

Convenience

It is crucial to consider your baby's transportation needs when buying a newborn pram. Some cheap prams have a bassinet or carrycot, that allows your baby to lie flat (essential for their development of their spine and breathing) while others come with a seat that can recline to a lie-flat position. It's important to take a look at the other accessories are included in the pram like an infant changing bag and a footmuff which are essential for keeping your baby warm in colder weather.

It's also worth noting that some strollers and prams can be converted into best travel pram systems, which allows you to connect a car capsule to the frame using adaptors so that you can easily transfer your baby between the car and the pushchair without needing to awake them. These can be useful for those who have a hectic life or don't have a big enough boot for pram capsules, but it's worth keeping in mind that your baby will need to be old enough and able to sit independently before you can change between the car capsule and pram.

Another feature you may want to look out for is the possibility of raising and lowering your infant's seat from a low to high setting, which helps maintain eye contact with them and keeps them close to you. This is something our tester for parents found very useful for her 10-month old boy! One example is the Graco Near2Me that lets your child 'glide up' to you with the press of an button.

You should also be able to store bags for shopping and changing in the basket beneath. You should be able store shopping bags and changing bags beneath the pram (but remember that too much weight could cause it to tip over). If you're not sure which one to pick, check different models at your local retailer.
