What is a bedside cot?
A bedside crib with changing table crib, also known as a bassinet or a co-sleeper is a baby cot that is attached to an adult bed. This allows your baby to sleep right next to you in peace. It's a method of safe co-sleeping that doesn't increase the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) like bedsharing, and can help you bond with your baby's new arrival.
They have one side that can be adjusted to allow you to reach your baby easily in the nighttime to comfort them and feed them. This is especially helpful for mothers recovering from a c section. Many of them are mobile or foldable, which means you can bring them along on trips and use them as a temporary sleeping solution for infants who aren't yet ready to move into a cot that is full size.
When you are looking for a crib to sleep in, look for a model that has a breathable mattress and a cover to shield your baby from stains. You may also want to purchase some baby-safe accessories like an infant blanket or a teether.
If you're looking for a longer-term alternative, some cribs are equipped with conversion kits that let you transform them into a cot or a toddler bed at the time of need. This is great for extending their lifespan and making the transition smoother. Some come with a removable section at the top that can be converted into an infant bed. Some can be used in conjunction with a regular adult bed or a high-rise model. This is an excellent choice for families that are planning to travel frequently or switch between bedrooms at night. You should also think about the size of your room to ensure you can fit the crib in comfortably. Many cribs come with an incline which can be used to create an incline to accommodate babies with reflux.
