How to Choose the Best cot Newborn Cot For Newborns

A cot is the baby's first bed and will serve as their bed until they reach around four years old. Therefore, you need it to be comfy, sturdy and safe.

Check it has gaps-free mattresses, because gaps can be the risk of suffocation for infants. Also look for a cot that converts into an infant bed.

Single Cot

The OEX Ultralite foldable cot is among the lightest options available. It weighs just 2.68kg and costs nearly half the price of the Helinox version I tried. It's also much simpler to set up. The two primary poles snap together like unusually large tent poles, with shock cord to keep them in order, then they slide easily into sleeves that fit on their legs. You just need to place your feet in them to set up the sleeping surface.

It isn't easy to disassemble. It is necessary to be strong to take the legs off, and then it is an effort to dismantle the frame. It's a minor issue and I'm convinced that it's the most lightweight cot that I've ever tested.

Look at the cot bed range on the market if you're looking for something that is more durable and permanent. They're generally suitable from birth to about 2 years old, which means you'll need to purchase one bed for your child at some point if you decide to go with this option.

Some children are happy to stay in a cot for longer than this, but most want to get their first single bed - which can be presented as a "prize' for being a big sister or brother!

Double Cot

A double cot is ideal for newborn twins or siblings who need to sleep close together. It comes with the same security features as a single cot. This includes side rails, a bottom with slats that can be adjusted to meet the needs of your child's growing up. It also has numerous support areas, so you can find the right fit for your child's unique needs. This is the only cot that we tested designed to accommodate two infants at once and can hold up to 325 lb. This cot is 72 inches long. This is a fantastic selling point for families who will need to share space.

One feature that many parents appreciate about this crib is that it can convert into a toddler bed, and then onto a junior bed, giving it a longer life span and meaning that you won't need to purchase another new bed. This is great for those with limited funds, and will save you money as your child grows.

Most health experts recommend cot beds since they provide the most security for your child. They are designed to be used from birth until your child is around two years old. They eventually require conversion into the toddler bed or junior bed.

This is the only cot we tested with an adjustable base. The lowest setting is ideal for babies who are still in a supine position. The highest setting is suggested when your baby is able to roll. This is a vital aspect, as babies can choke if their heads are stuck between gaps or protrusions in the cot.

This cot's only downside is that it can be difficult to fold and can be a challenge to get the legs into place. It's also the largest cot on our list and can be quite heavy to carry around if you need to move it from the storage location.

Triple Cot

Cots are specifically designed for babies and offer an environment that is safe for sleeping to ensure that your baby gets the sleep they need. The base can be raised to accommodate the developmental stage of your baby. They are generally lower than beds. A majority of cots come with drop-sides that allow you to sleep in a safe environment with your newborn. It also allows you to feed your baby at night. Some cots offer the option of removing one side completely, allowing you to use it as an infant bassinet. This is a safer option than sleeping with your baby in your bed.

Some cots also have extra features that make life easier for parents. There is a drawer under the cot that is perfect for storage, rails to protect teething babies and a riser leg that can create an angle that can be used for babies with reflux. Silver Cross Westport Cot Bed is one of our favourites. It is not only stunning with its minimalist Scandi design and oak finish, but it is also practical with three different height settings for the mattress.

When buying a cot there are a variety of factors to take into account. These include the cot's depth and sides and storage capacity, if it has a removable hood, and if the cot includes bedding. It is also worth making sure you are aware of the dimensions so that the crib or cot your baby is using will fit in your nursery or bedroom with plenty of space to move around and not too close to heat sources or windows.

Quadruple Cot

If you're expecting twins or triplets, you'll need a quadruple cot. These cots are large enough to accommodate four babies at once They include bedding sets that make it simple to get your little ones ready for bed. Some also have the option of a side rail that can be removed, to allow you to place your child near you while they sleep. If you have kids of your own you might consider models with a bunk that can be converted into an individual bed.

Many cots have an adjustable mattress which can be adjusted to suit the size of your baby. This is a great idea for parents who are concerned that your child could fall asleep at night. It's an excellent idea when your child begins to stand. A lot of cot mattresses are made out of natural materials, such as wool or cotton, but you can find models that make use of polyurethane foam as well.

It is a good idea to pick a cot with mesh sides, which allows air to circulate and help keep your baby cool. Be sure to check the bars too. They should not be wider than 6.5cm to stop your child from climbing out. Avoid affordable cots that have solid foot and head boards, as they can entrap clothing or legs.

Another crucial aspect to consider is how easy the cot is to clean. Check if it's machine washable, and what the care instructions are for the fabric as well as any parts that are removable. You should also determine whether your cot bedding fits or if you have to purchase some special travel cot sheet.

Babies require a lot of paraphernalia such as nappies (which can quickly add up!) bedding clothes and other toys. A cot with storage, such as the Obaby Stamford Space Saver Cot will allow you to organize everything neatly and easily accessible.
