Buying a Pram Newborn

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

A pram newborn is designed for newborns and babies and has the most solid, sturdy carrycot that has soft and secure walls.

A pram typically comes with a bassinet but can be transformed into an infant stroller seat once baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns need to be secured as much as is possible. A pram or stroller that has safety features will ensure that your baby is in a safe and comfortable environment during travel. A folding stroller or pram should have a break that works and a five-point harness (2 shoulder straps with two waist straps and the crotch belt) and a wrist tether for the person driving it. Check that your chosen pram meets these standards before you buy.

Find a pram that allows your baby to ride in the recommended lie-flat position. This position is supportive for your baby and helps prevent a dangerous spinal curve which could lead to spinal issues. By keeping the airways open, it lowers the risk for SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). Most prams that are used from birth will come with an infant seat that can recline into a lie-flat pram mode for babies younger than the age of one and convert into a pushchair stroller seat unit for older children.

The suspension on prams is vital because it can affect how smooth the ride. A pram with many spring suspensions will cost more, but it is worth the extra cost in the event that you plan to use your pram every day for a couple of years or more.

Always take the time to go through the instruction manual and check the warning labels for your stroller or pram. When not in use, you should place your stroller in a safe area away from potential dangers like bicycles, traffic or other people. It is also important to remove any bags or other items that are not removed from the handles, as they can cause your baby to get caught or suffocate.

Even if the baby seems asleep, it's never a good idea to leave a stroller or pram unattended. They can get wriggling and become stuck or the pram might slide away and the baby could be injured. Hanging bags, or other items from the handles is not recommended as they can fall and strike your child on the head.

Comfort

Having the option of lie flat seating is a necessity for babies, because it helps improve back and lung development. A lot of prams come with a cocoon or carrycot that creates a cozy, nest-like environment for your infant and can be easily detached from the frame. Other models, such as the egg2's bucket-style seat do not recline to lie flat but still offer a comfortable ride to your baby.

Some prams have a separate seat or bassinet for the newborn. This allows you to easily switch between the sleeping and sitting positions depending on what your baby needs. This is sometimes referred to as a "travel system prams system" and is the initial setup you should test out with your newborn.

Find a pram that has two shoulder straps, ideally padded, and a five-point safety harness. It must fit your child's body comfortably. Check that there are no gaps or areas where fingers can become trapped. Also, make sure that the buckles are safe for older children to use. You should also consider whether you want a pram that is oriented towards parents. It is ideal to keep an eye on your child and helps them feel more secure by seeing their parents.

Our parents who tested the product enjoyed the features of some prams such as the Graco Near2Me, which lets you raise your baby at the touch of a button. This is a great method of keeping eye contact with your baby, and stay in touch, especially when they're sleepy. If you're seeking an infant travel system that is compatible with the car capsule you choose you won't have to wake your baby up to switch between the pram and the car.

Convenience

When buying a pram newborn it is important to consider your baby's needs for transport. Some prams have an infant bassinet, carrycot or a seat that reclines to a flat position. This is essential for your baby's development of the spine and breathing. It is important to look at what other accessories the pram has like an infant changing bag and a footmuff which are essential to keep your baby warm in colder weather.

It's also worth noting that some strollers and prams can be transformed into travel systems, permitting you to connect a car capsule with the frame using adaptors so that you can easily transfer your child between the car and the twin pushchair without having to wake them up. This is a great option when you live a busy life or don't have a big enough boot for pram capsules, but it is worth bearing in mind that your baby will need to be old enough and able to sit on their own before you can change between the car capsule and pram.

Our tester's mother found that the ability to raise or lower the seat of her son who was 10 months old was a fantastic feature. An excellent example is the Graco Near2Me which can be lowered to allow your child to 'glide into your arms by pressing an button and maintain constant eye contact.

Also, ensure that your pram newborn has a solid base and wheels that can withstand bumps and potholes and that you can fold it down with ease, and check that the safety harness you use is safe and fits comfortably (five-point rather than three-point) and is able to be adjusted as your child grows. You should be able store bags for shopping and changing underneath the pram (but remember that too much weight can cause it to topple over). If you're not sure which one to pick, check different models at your local retailer.
