Buying a Pram Newborn

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

A pram newborn is a must for newborns and babies. It has the most solid, sturdy carrycot that has soft and secure walls.

A pram is equipped with a bassinet. However, it can be converted to a stroller once the baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns are incredibly fragile and need to be kept as safe as you can. A stroller or pram with safety features will ensure that your baby is in a safe and comfortable environment during travel. The basic requirements for pram newborn any stroller or pram are to have a working 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. Check that your chosen pram meets these standards before you purchase.

Look for a pram that allows your newborn to ride in the recommended lying flat position. This position helps support the baby and helps prevent an unintentionally dangerous spinal curve that can lead to spinal problems. It also reduces the risk of SUID (Sudden Unexpected Infant Death Syndrome) or asphyxiation by keeping airways open. Most prams can be used right from birth. They have a seat unit which reclines into a lay-flat position for infants. It can also be converted into a pushchair for older children.

The suspension of the pram will determine how smoothly it is. A pram that has many suspensions is likely to cost more but it may be worth paying for this feature if you plan on using your pram everyday for a few years or more.

Always take the time to go through the instruction manual and examine the warning labels for your twin stroller or pram. When not in use, you should keep your stroller away from dangers like traffic, bicycles or other people. Also, you should remove any bags or other items that are not removed from the handles, since they can cause your baby to become caught or choke.

Even if your baby is asleep, it's not an ideal idea to leave a pram or stroller unattended. They could wiggle and get trapped, or the pram may be thrown away and the child might be injured. It's not a good idea to hang bags or other objects on the handles since they could fall and strike your baby's head.

Comfort

It is vital that newborns are able to lie flat, as this promotes lung and back development. Cocoons or carrycots are available on many prams. They create a cozy environment that is a comfortable place for your baby and can be removed easily from the frame. Others, like the egg2's bucket style seat do not recline to lay flat, but offer a comfortable ride for your baby.

Some prams come with a separate seat or bassinet for infants. This lets you effortlessly switch between sitting and sleeping positions based on the needs of your baby. This is often referred to as a "travel system" and is the initial setup you should test out with your baby.

Choose a stroller with two shoulder straps, ideally padded and a five-point safety harness. It must fit your child's body comfortably. Make sure there are no gaps or loose areas where fingers could become trapped, and that the buckles are comfortable to use, particularly for older children. It's also worth considering whether you'd prefer a parent facing pram or not. It's great to watch your little one and helps children feel secure with the familiarity of their parents.

Some prams, like the Graco Near2Me, have a nifty raise and lower function that brings your baby up to your face at the touch of the button, which our parents testers really loved! This is a great method to keep eye contact with your baby, and stay in touch, especially when they're sleeping. If you're in the market for a travel system, be sure to check the frame is compatible with your chosen car capsule to avoid you from having to wake them up when changing between pram, car and back again.

Convenience

When buying a pram newborn it is important to consider your baby's needs for transport. Some prams include a carrycot or bassinet, that allows your baby to be laid flat (essential for their spinal development and breathing) while others come with seats that recline to a lying-flat position. It is important to check the other accessories included in the pram, such as a footmuff or a changing bag. These are essential to keep your baby warm when it's cold.

It's worth noting that certain strollers and prams can be converted into travel systems, permitting you to connect a car capsule to the frame via adaptors to allow you to easily transfer your child between the car and the pushchair without needing to get them up. These can be useful when you live a busy schedule or don't have the 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 on their own before you can switch them from car capsule to pram.

Another feature you may want to consider is the ability to raise and lower your infant's seat from a low setting to a high setting, which allows you to maintain eye contact with them and keeps them close to you, which our tester for parents found extremely useful for her 10-month-old boy! One example is the Graco Near2Me which allows your child to glide closer to you at the push chairs and prams of the button.

Also, ensure that your pram newborn has a sturdy base and pram newborn wheels that can withstand bumps and potholes and that you can fold it down with ease and ensure that the safety harness is functional, fits comfortably and securely (five-point rather than three-point) and is adjustable as your child grows. You should also be able keep changing and shopping bags in the basket underneath (although keep in mind that loading the pram with too much weight could cause it to tip over). If you are unsure of what to choose, try various models at the local store.
