Buying a Pram Newborn

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

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

A pram will typically come with a bassinet but can be transformed into a stroller seat once baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns must be protected as much as possible. A pram or stroller equipped with safety features will ensure that your baby is secure and comfortable while traveling. A stroller or pram should have a break that works and a 5-point harness (2 shoulder straps; 2 waist straps; and a crotch belt) and a wrist tether for the person driving it. Check that your chosen pram for newborn - More Support, is up to the standards before purchasing.

Find a pram that allows your baby to ride in the recommended lying-flat position. This position helps your baby and prevents the development of a risky spinal curve that could cause spinal issues. It reduces the chance of SUID (Sudden Unexpected Infant Death Syndrome) or asphyxiation by ensuring that the airways are open. Most prams can be used from the moment of the moment of birth. They come with an adjustable seat that reclines into a lay-flat position for younger infants and converts into a pushchair for older children.

The suspension of the pram is crucial as it will affect how smooth the ride. A pram that has many suspensions is likely to cost more but it may be worth it to purchase this feature if you intend on using your pram everyday for a few years or longer.

Always read the instructions and read the warning labels on your pram or lightweight stroller. When not using it, park your pram away from potential dangers like traffic, bicycles or other people. It is also important to remove any bags or other objects from the handles, as they could cause your baby to get caught or choke.

Even if the baby seems asleep, it's not a good idea to leave a pram or stroller unattended. They could get squirming into the stroller and become trapped, or it could slide away and cause injury. Hanging bags or other items on the handles isn't an ideal idea because they could fall and hit your child in the head.

Comfort

It is crucial that babies have the option of lying flat as this aids in lung and back development. A lot of prams come with cocoons or carrycots that creates a warm nest-like space for your baby and is able to be removed from the frame. Some seats, like the bucket-style seat found on the egg2, can't be reclined completely flat, but offer a comfortable ride for your child.

Some prams come with an additional bassinet, infant inset or stroller seat so you can easily switch between sitting and sleeping modes according to your baby's needs. It is commonly referred to as a 'travel stroller system' and is the first option you should test with your newborn.

Look for a pram that has two shoulder straps that are ideally padded, and a five-point safety harness. It must fit your child's body comfortably. Be sure to check for gaps, or loose areas where fingers can become trapped. Also, ensure that the buckles are safe for older children to operate. You should also consider if you'd like an adult-facing pram. It is ideal for keeping an ear on your child and helps them feel more secure being able to see their parents.

Our parents who tested the product loved the feature of some prams, like the Graco Near2Me which allows you to raise your baby at the touch of a button. This is a great method of keeping in touch with your baby, especially when they are sleeping. If you're looking to purchase a travel system, make sure that the frame is compatible with the car capsule you've chosen and this will prevent you from having to wake them up while changing between car, pram bags and back again.

Convenience

It is crucial to consider your baby's transportation needs when you purchase a new baby's pram. Some cheap prams have the option of a carrycot or bassinet that allows your baby to lay flat (essential for their spinal development and breathing) while others come with seats that can recline to a lying-flat position. It is also important to know the other accessories included in the pram, for instance the footmuff and the changing bag. These are essential to keep your baby warm when it is cold.

Some strollers strollers and prams can be converted to travel systems. You can connect an auto pod to the frame with adaptors, meaning you can transfer your child from the car to the pushchair without waking them up. These are great when you have a busy schedule or you do not have enough space in your car's boot to accommodate the pram. But, you must keep in mind that you'll need wait until your baby is old enough to sit up by themselves before you can transform them from a car capsule into pushchair.

Our parent tester found that the ability to raise or lower the seat of her 10-month-old son was a fantastic feature. One example is the Graco Near2Me which allows your child to glide closer to you at the press of a button.

You should also be able to keep shopping bags and changing bags in the basket underneath. You will also be able to store shopping and changing bags inside the basket beneath (although remember that loading the pram with excessive weight can cause it to tip over). If you're not sure which model to pick, check out a variety of models at your local store.
