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 adventure 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 typically comes with a bassinet, but it can be converted into an infant stroller seat once baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns must be protected as much as is possible. A stroller or pram with safety features will keep your baby in a safe and comfortable environment during travel. The most essential requirements for any pram or stroller are to have a working brake, a 5-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, 2 waist straps, and the crotch strap) and the wrist tether strap that is for the person who is pushing the pram. Verify that the stroller you select meets these requirements.

Look for a pram that allows your baby to ride in the recommended lie-flat position. This position is supportive for your baby and helps prevent the development of a risky spinal curve that can lead to problems with their spine. By keeping the airways open, it lowers the risk for SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). The majority of prams can be used from the moment of the moment of birth. They come with a seat unit which reclines into a lay-flat mode for younger infants and converts into a pushchair for older children.

The suspension on the pram is crucial because it can affect the smoothness of the ride. A pram that has a lot of spring suspension will be more expensive however it is worth the extra expense in the event that you plan to use your pram each for a while or longer.

Always read the instructions and read the warning labels on your pram or stroller. When not in use, park your pram away from dangers like traffic, bicycles or other people. You should also remove any bags or other items that are not removed from the handles as they can cause your baby to get caught or suffocate.

A pram or stroller should not be left alone with a baby in it even if they're asleep. They may squirm into the stroller and become stuck, or be pushed away and cause injuries. It's also not a good idea to hang bags or other things off the handles as they may fall and hit your baby in the head.

Comfort

Having the option of lie flat seating is an absolute must for newborns, as it promotes better back and lung development. A lot of prams come with a carrycot or cocoon that creates a cozy nest-like space for your newborn and is able to be removed from the frame. Others, such as the egg2's bucket-style seat do not recline to lay flat, but they still provide a comfy ride for your baby.

Some prams also have an extra bassinet, newborn stroller or inset seat so that you can easily change between sitting and sleeping modes depending on your bub's needs. This is sometimes called a "travel system" and is the first configuration that you should try out with your baby.

Find a pram with two straps for the shoulder that are ideally padded and a five-point security harness. It should fit your baby's body snugly. Check that there are no gaps, or loose places where fingers could be trapped. Also, make sure that the buckles are easy for older children to operate. Also, think about if you would like a parent-facing pram. It is ideal to keep an eye on your child and makes them feel more secure seeing their parents.

Some prams, like the Graco Near2Me, come with a nifty raise and lower function that brings your baby up to your face at the touch of an button, which our parent testers loved! This is a great way to maintain eye contact with your baby and stay in touch, especially when they're sleepy. If you are looking for a travel system compatible with the car capsule you choose it is not necessary to wake your baby to switch between the car and pram.

Convenience

When buying a pram newborn it is crucial to think about your baby's transport needs. Some prams include carrycots, a bassinet or a seat that reclines to an upright position. This is important to ensure your baby's spinal development and breathing. You should also check the other accessories that are included in the pram, for instance the footmuff and the changing bag. These are essential for keeping your baby warm when it's cold.

It's important to note that some strollers and prams can be transformed into travel systems permitting you to connect a car capsule to the frame using adaptors, so that you can easily move your baby between the car and the pushchair without needing to get them up. These are great when you have a busy schedule or you don't have enough space in your car's boot to accommodate the pram. However, it is important to be aware that you'll need to wait until your child is old enough to sit up on their own before you convert them from a car capsule to pushchair.

Our parent facing pushchair 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 that allows your child to 'glide up' to you with the press of the button.

Finally, make sure your pram newborn has a sturdy base and wheels that are able to handle potholes and bumps. Ensure that you are able to fold it up easily and ensure that the safety harness you use is safe that fits comfortably and securely (five-point instead of three-point) and is adjustable as your child grows. You should be able store shopping bags and changing bags underneath the pram (but be aware that excessive weight could cause it to tip over). If you're not sure which model to go with, try some different models at your local store.
