Buying a Pram Newborn

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

A pram newborn is a must for newborns and babies. It has an incredibly sturdy, deep carrycot that has soft and secure walls.

A pram comes with a bassinet, but it can also be converted into a stroller if the baby is ready.

Safety

The newborns of today are extremely fragile and need to be kept as safe as you can. A pram or stroller equipped with safety features will keep your baby safe and comfortable during travel. The basic requirements for any pram or stroller include a functioning brake, a five-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, 2 waist straps, and the crotch strap) and an adjustable wrist tether strap for the person pushing the pram. Check that the pram you select is in compliance with these requirements.

Find a pram that allows your newborn to ride in the recommended lying flat position. This position supports your baby and helps prevent a dangerous curve in their spine that can lead to spinal issues. By keeping the airways open, it lowers the chance of SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). Most prams can be used as early as the moment of birth. They come with seats that recline into a lay-flat position for infants. It can also be converted into a pushchair sale unit for older children.

The suspension on prams is vital because it can affect how smooth the ride is. A pram that has lots of spring suspension will be more expensive however it is worth the extra expense if you plan to use your pram every for a while or more.

It is important to make sure to read the instruction manual thoroughly and examine the warning labels for your stroller or pram. It is also important to ensure that your stroller newborn is parked in a safe spot away from traffic, bicycles or other hazards when it isn't being used. You should also remove any bags or other items that are not removed from the handles, as they could cause your baby to become caught or suffocate.

A pram or stroller should not be left unattended with a child in it even if they're asleep. They could get squirming into the pram and become trapped, or be pushed away and cause injuries. Hanging bags, or other items on the handles isn't recommended because they could fall and strike your child on the head.

Comfort

Possibility of lying flat seating is an absolute essential for infants since it aids in better back and lung development. Carrycots or cocoons are available on many prams. They create a cozy environment that is comfortable for your baby and can be removed easily from the frame. Other models, such as the egg2's bucket-style seat do not recline to lie flat, but offer a comfortable ride for your baby.

Some prams come with an additional bassinet or seat for a newborn. This allows you to easily switch between the sitting and sleeping positions based on what your baby needs. It is commonly called a 'travel system' and is the first option you should test with your baby.

Choose a stroller that has two shoulder straps, ideally padded, and a five-point safety 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 easy to use - especially for older children. You should also consider whether you want a pram that is oriented towards parents. It is great for keeping an ear on your child and helps them feel more secure by seeing their parents.

Some prams, such as the Graco Near2Me have a handy raise and lower feature that brings your baby up to your face at the push of an button, which our parents testers really loved! This is a fantastic method to keep eye contact with your baby, and stay in touch, particularly when they're sleepy. If you're looking to purchase an appropriate travel system, be sure that the frame's compatibility with the car capsule you've chosen, as this will save you from having to wake them up when changing between pram, car and back.

Convenience

When buying a pram newborn it is important to consider your baby's needs for transport. Some prams include a carrycot or bassinet, which allows your baby to be laid flat (essential for their development of their spine and breathing) while others have seats that can recline into a flat position. It's important to take a look at the other accessories are included in the pram like the footmuff and changing bag that are essential to keep your baby warm during colder months.

Some strollers and prams can be converted into travel systems. You can connect a car pod to a frame using adaptors, so you can transfer your child from the car to the pushchair without waking them up. This is a great option for those who have a hectic schedule or don't have the sufficient space for prams, however it's important to keep in mind that your child must be old enough and able to sit on their own before you can change between the car capsule and pram.

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

Finally, make sure your pram newborn has a sturdy base and wheels that are able to handle potholes and bumps. Ensure that you can fold it down easily and ensure that the safety harness is in good working order and fits comfortably (five-point instead of three-point) and is adjustable as your child grows. You should be able to store shopping bags and changing bags beneath the pram (but be aware that too much weight can cause it to topple over). If you're not sure which model to pick, check out a variety of models at your local retailer.
