Choosing a Pushchair Newborn

A newborn pushchair is one of the most essential baby items you'll require. There's a wide selection out there but it's essential to choose the best one for your family.

Experts advise that infants be able to lay flat in the first few months. Find a model that has a fully reclined seat that can also be used as a newborn.

Safety

When choosing a stroller, the safety of your child is paramount. A good pushchair must have a seat that reclines to a flat position and come with a five-point harness that is cushioned and has strong connections. Carrycots are the ideal choice for babies. They should not be placed in the main seat. If your pushchair does not have a carrycot then you should consider a travel system which is a car seat and pram pushchair in one.

The frame of your stroller must be stable, and it should have a broad base so that it does not slide over easily. It is also advisable to avoid overloading the back of your chair with shopping bags or toys because this could affect the stability of the chair. If your pushchair is a three wheeler then it should have an excellent suspension and the wheels must be made of PU or rubber for better shock absorption. Look for brakes which are easy to operate and ensure that they are working well before you put your child in.

A high-quality pushchair will include a raincover that can be secured with a zip and an outer lining that is waterproof. This will keep your baby dry and comfortable. Some pushchairs have a sun canopy, also known as a hood, that can be extended to give more coverage. Make sure that the handlebars of your pushchair are adjustable for parents to find the most comfortable posture for pushing and driving.

The majority of pushchairs come with a footmuff that keeps your baby warm. It can be removed if the temperature becomes too hot. It is a good idea to take this along when you go out in cold weather or when the sun begins to shine strong.

Make sure that the pushchair, buggy, or pram you purchase meets British safety standards. If it's part a travel system, check whether it is also compliant with European safety standards ECER44/04 and R129. Ensure that you have gone through all the directions and demonstrate to anyone who will use the pushchair how to fold, open and secure it before they begin using it. When the pushchair's not in use, release all locking mechanisms.

Comfort

Infants are tiny and have little strength in their necks, so they need to lie flat for their comfort and to help their breathing. A pushchair without a seat that can lie flat isn't suitable for infants or newborns since they can sleep in a position that is too upright and will prevent their airways from fully opening, possibly leading to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).

To ensure that your child is always travelling comfortably opt for a reclining stroller with a lie-flat seat that can be used from birth. This kind of pushchair may be referred to as buggy, stroller, or pram.

In addition to a lie-flat seat unit, be sure to look for other features that are suitable for babies, such as the ability to raise or lower the chassis from the footrest as well as a spacious seat with 3 adjustable height positions. You can even use it while feeding your baby or toddler. You should consider purchasing a footmuff that is made of soft, comfortable materials that shields your child from the sun and keeps them warm. Most brands sell footmuffs separately or in their bundles of accessories and pushchairs.

Many parents decide to purchase multiple pushchairs and then upgrade them as their baby develops. If you plan to do this, make sure to choose a lightweight pushchair that has a good suspension, a big rear tire for city or rough terrain and a one-handed folding design.

Travel systems that combine the car seat, carrycot or pushchair chassis with a seat unit and chassis are a fantastic option for infants and toddlers. These are perfect for long trips because babies can be carried safely and comfortably in the car seat or carrycot and later transferred to a pushchair when they're ready.

Style

A pushchair for newborns is one of the most important baby purchases you'll ever make, so it must be comfortable and simple to use. Consider features like a comfortable seat cushion and an adjustable handlebar to find the right position for you and your child. You'll want to make sure it can withstand a few bumps in the road and is durable enough to withstand the demands of daily use.

Newborns must be lying flat to assist with their lung and spine development, so it's essential that you purchase a stroller that is able to accommodate them in this flat position. This is why a lot of prams 'from birth' come with the option of a carrycot attached to the chassis so your baby is always close to you.

Some prams provide the option of a lie-flat, without carrying a carrycot. They may be suitable for newborns up to around six months but you should examine the specifications thoroughly to be certain. You can also purchase a travel system that comes with a car-seat and is ready for use from the moment your baby is born.

The Graco Near2Me feature of the egg2 is particularly suitable for babies, as it lets you bring your baby closer to you at the press of the button. Jaya is a parent tester, says it's great for keeping contact and to bond. It can also be used with the carrycot, seat unit and car seat attachments, making it a flexible option for traveling with a newborn.

There are a variety of different colours, styles and patterns to match your home decor or nursery But be sure to stay clear of any bright colours that could distract your baby. You'll likely be using your pushchair for many years so it's worth investing in a design that you'll love for a few years down the line.

If you're looking for a chic pushchair that's light and compact pushchair when folded, have a look at the YOYO2 by Babyzen. It has a smooth, curved shape with an opulent feel for your newborn and comes with a movable carrycot. This city stroller is a favourite of parents who are looking for a compact, city-friendly pram. It has some extra features, like a convenient mug holders.

Weight

If you're looking for a light pushchair for your newborn or a larger model that can handle a toddler There are a lot of options. You must take into consideration that a baby's weight can be a heavy baby. Therefore, you should take a look at the weight (with or without carrying cots) of the pram or pushchair. This is crucial when you travel frequently or take public transport regularly.

As opposed to older children, infants have very little strength in their neck muscles, so they must be able to lay flat for sleep. Expert advice suggests that infants and young infants should not travel long distances in pushchairs that do not offer this option as they may experience breathing issues from the scrunched up position. This is a risk that could contribute to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

Many models include the option to add a carrycot which is great for babies. Some brands offer a variety of foldable pram and pushchair combos or a 'travel system' that include both the seat unit and carrycot as well as adapters for your child's car seat.

You can also choose a twin pushchair that has two seats side by side which is ideal for twins or siblings who wish to keep each one another close. These tend to be heavier than single pushchairs since they are designed to accommodate the seat unit and baby carriers.

If you're a frequent traveller by public transportation, or in an area with limited space, a lightweight buggy is the ideal choice. It's also a good idea to determine how compact the stroller folds away and whether it will be able to fit through your doorways at home. You may also opt for a stroller that folds away or a buggy with a storage basket to store your bags of shopping and changing kit.
