Buying a Pram Newborn

Parents and caregivers can count on pushchairs and prams to be multi-functional and versatile. They are the co-pilots of your child's journey.

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

A pram will typically come with a bassinet, but it can be converted to an infant stroller seat once baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns need to be secured as much as is possible. Buying a stroller or pram equipped with safety features will ensure that your baby is safe and secure while traveling. The most essential requirements for any pram or stroller include a functioning brake, a 5-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, two waist straps, and a Crotch strap) and the wrist tether strap that is for the person who is pushing the pram. Make sure that the pram you choose meets these standards before you purchase.

Find a stroller that allows your baby to ride in the recommended lying flat position. This position is supportive for your baby and helps prevent a dangerous curvature in their spine that can lead to problems with their spine. By keeping the airways open, it reduces the chance of SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). The majority of prams can be used as early as the time of birth. They have an adjustable seat that reclines into a lay-flat mode for infants, and can be converted into a pushchair for older children.

The suspension of a pram will determine how smooth it is. A pram that has a lot of suspension is likely to be more costly but it could be worth it to purchase this feature if you plan on using your pram everyday for a couple of years or longer.

Always read the directions and read the warning labels on your stroller or pram. Also, ensure that your stroller is parked in a secure location free of bicycles, traffic or any other dangers when it's not being used. It is also important to remove any bags or other items from the handles as they could cause your baby to get trapped or even suffocate.

Even if the baby seems asleep, it's not a good prams idea to leave a pram or stroller unattended. They can get wriggling and become trapped, or the pram may slide away and the baby could be injured. It is also not recommended to hang bags or other items from the handles because they could fall and hit your baby in the head.

Comfort

Having the option of lie flat seating is a necessity for babies, since it aids in better lung and back development. Cocoons or carrycots are available on a variety of 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 lay flat but still provide a comfy ride for your baby.

Some prams also have an extra bassinet, newborn inset or stroller seat so you can easily switch between sleeping and sitting modes depending on your bub's needs. This is often referred to as a 'travel system' and is the first configuration you should try with your baby.

Choose a stroller with two shoulder straps (ideally with padding) and a five-point safety harness that fits your bub's body safely. Make sure there are no gaps or areas that are loose where fingers could get trapped and that the buckles are easy to use, especially for older children. It's also worth considering whether you'd prefer a pram with a parent-facing feature or not - it's great for keeping an eye on your child and helping children feel secure with the familiarity of their parents.

Some prams, such as the Graco Near2Me have a nifty raise and lower feature that brings your baby close to your face with the touch of a button, which our parents testers really loved! This is a fantastic method of keeping eye contact with your baby and stay 3 in 1 pram touch, especially when they're asleep. If you're searching for a travel system that is compatible with the car capsule you pick it is not necessary to wake your baby to switch between the pram and car seat pram.

Convenience

When buying a pram newborn it is essential to consider your baby's needs for transport. Some prams come with the option of a carrycot or bassinet which allows your baby to lie flat (essential for their spinal development and breathing) while others have a seat that can recline to a lie-flat position. It is also important to know what other accessories are included in the pram, for instance a footmuff or a changing bag. These are essential for keeping your baby warm when it's cold.

Some prams and strollers can be converted to travel system prams systems. You can connect an auto pod to the frame with adaptors, meaning you can move your baby from the car to the pram without waking them up. These are great when you have a busy schedule or you do not have enough space in your car's boot to accommodate the pram. However, you should be aware that you'll need wait until your child is old enough to sit by themselves before you can transform them from a car capsule into the pushchair.

Our parent tester found that the ability to raise or lower the seat of her son's 10 months old was a fantastic feature. One example is the Graco Near2Me, which lets your child 'glide towards you at the touch of a button.

Make sure that your pram newborn has a sturdy base with wheels that can handle bumps and potholes and that you can fold it down with ease and make sure the safety harness is functional that fits comfortably and securely (five-point instead of three-point) and is able to be adjusted as your child grows. You will also be able to store shopping and changing bags in the basket underneath (although keep in mind that putting on too much weight can cause it to tip over). If you're not sure what model to go with, try out a variety of models at your local retailer.
