Buying a Pram Newborn

Prams and pushchairs car seats are multi-functional, flexible allies of parents and caregivers. They are the co-pilots for your child's next adventure.

A pram newborn is dedicated to newborns and babies and has an incredibly sturdy, deep carrycot with soft and safe walls.

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

Safety

Newborns need to be secured as much as possible. A pram or stroller that has safety features will keep your baby secure and comfortable while traveling. The essential requirements for any pram or stroller are a functioning brake, a five-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, two waist straps and the strap for the crotch) and the wrist tether strap that is for the person pushing the pram. Be sure that the model you are considering is up to the standards before you buy.

Find a stroller that allows your baby to travel in the position recommended for lying flat. This position is supportive for the baby and prevents a potentially dangerous curve in the spine which can cause spinal problems. It reduces the chance of SUID (Sudden Unexpected Infant Death Syndrome) or asphyxiation by ensuring that the airways are free. The majority of prams can be used as early as birth. They have a seat unit which reclines into a lay-flat mode for infants, and can be converted into a pushchair unit for older children.

The suspension of a pram is important because it can affect how smooth the ride is. A pram with a lot of suspension is likely to cost more but it may be worth the cost of this feature if you are planning on using your pram everyday for a couple of years or longer.

It is important to be sure to read the instruction manual and look over the warning labels on your stroller or foldable pram. When not using it, keep your stroller away from dangers like bicycles, traffic or other people. It is important to take any bags or other items from the handles since they could cause your baby to be caught or suffocate.

A pram or stroller should not be left unattended with a child in it, even if they are asleep. They could wriggle into the stroller and become trapped, or roll away and cause injury. Hanging bags or other objects from the handles is not 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 promotes lung and back development. Cocoons or carriers are available on many prams. They create a nest-like space that is a comfortable place 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 lay flat but still provide a comfy ride for your baby.

Some pushchairs prams pushchairs also have an extra bassinet, newborn stroller or inset seat so that you can easily change between sitting and sleeping modes according to your baby's needs. This is often referred to as a 'travel system and is the very first option you should test with your baby.

Find a pram that has two shoulder straps (ideally padded) and a sturdy five-point safety harness that fits your baby's body safely. Make sure there aren't any gaps or places where fingers could become trapped. Also, ensure that the buckles are easy for older children to use. It's also worth considering whether you'd like a parent facing pram or not - it's perfect for keeping an eye on your little one and helps them feel reassured by the familiarity of their parents.

Some prams, such as the Graco Near2Me have a nifty raise and lower feature that allows your baby to come up to your face at the push of an button, which our parent testers loved! This is a fantastic way to maintain eye contact with your baby, and stay in touch, particularly when they're asleep. If you're in the market for a travel system, be sure to check whether the frame is compatible with your car capsule, as this will save the need to wake them up when changing between car, pram and back again.

Convenience

When buying a pram newborn it is essential to consider your baby's needs for transport. Some best prams have carrycots, a bassinet or a seat that reclines to an upright position. This is crucial to ensure your baby's spinal development and breathing. It's also a good idea to take a look at the other accessories the pram comes with like an infant changing bag and a footmuff which are essential for keeping your baby warm in the colder winter months.

Some strollers and prams can be converted into travel systems. You can connect a car pod to the frame using adaptors, so you can move your child from the car to the pushchair without disturbing them. These are useful if your lifestyle is busy or you don't have enough space in your car boot to accommodate the pram. However, you should keep in mind that you will need to wait until your baby is old enough to sit up independently before you transform them from a car capsule to a pushchair.

Another feature you may want to keep an eye on is the possibility of raising and lowering your newborn's seat from a low to a high setting, which helps maintain eye contact with them and keeps them close to you, which our parent tester found was really useful with her 10-month-old boy! One example is the Graco Near2Me which lets your child 'glide closer to you at the push of the button.

Finally, make sure your pram newborn has a sturdy base and wheels that can withstand potholes and bumps. Also, make sure you are able to fold it down easily and make sure the safety harness is functional, fits comfortably and securely (five-point rather than three-point) and is able to be adjusted as your child grows. You should also be able to store shopping and changing 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're not sure what model to go with, try some different models at your local retailer.
