A pram typically comes with a bassinet, but it can be converted into a foldable stroller seat when baby is ready.
Safety
Newborns must be protected as much as is possible. Buying a pram or stroller with safety features will ensure that your baby is secure and secure while traveling. The basic requirements for any pram or stroller newborn include a functioning brake, a five-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, 2 waist straps, and the Crotch strap) and the wrist tether strap that is for the person who is pushing the pram. Make sure that the pram you choose is up to the standards before you purchase.
Look for a pram that allows your newborn to ride in the recommended lie-flat position. This position helps your baby and prevents the development of a risky curve in their spine that could cause spinal problems. It also reduces the risk of SUID (Sudden Unexpected Infant Death Syndrome) or asphyxiation by keeping airways free. Most prams that can be used from birth will come with an infant seat that can recline into a lie-flat pram position for infants and transform into a pushchair unit for older children.
The suspension of a pram will determine how smoothly it is. A pram that has lots of suspension is likely to cost more but it could be worth paying for this feature if you intend to use your pram daily for a few years or longer.
Always read the directions and read the warning labels on your pram or my babiie stroller. It is also important to ensure that your pram is parked in a safe location away from traffic, bicycles or other hazards when it isn't being used. It is also important to remove any bags or other items from the handles, as they can cause your baby to get trapped or even suffocate.
Even if the baby seems asleep, it's not a good idea to leave a stroller or pram unattended. They could wiggle and get trapped, or the pram may roll away and they might be injured. Hanging bags or other objects from the handles isn't recommended since they could fall and strike your child on the head.
Comfort
It is vital that newborns are able to lie flat as this aids in lung and back development. Carrycots or cocoons are found on many prams. They create a nest-like space that is comfortable for your baby and can be removed easily from the frame. Some seats, such as the bucket-style seat on the egg2, aren't able to recline completely flat, but offer a comfortable ride for your child.
Some prams also have an additional bassinet, infant inset or stroller seat, so you can easily change between sitting and sleeping modes according to your baby's requirements. It is often referred to as a "travel system" and is the first option to try out with your newborn.
Choose a stroller with two straps for the shoulder, ideally padded and a five-point security harness. It should fit your baby's body comfortably. Make sure there aren't any gaps or areas where fingers can get caught. Also make sure the buckles are easy for older children to operate. It is also important to consider if you'd like a pram that is oriented towards parents. It is great to keep an eye on your child, and makes them feel more secure by being able to see their parents.
Our parents who tested the product loved the feature of certain prams like the Graco Near2Me which allows you to raise your baby and lower it at the touch of one button. This is a great way to keep connected to your baby, especially when they're sleeping. If you're looking to purchase a travel system, be sure that the frame is compatible with the car capsule you've chosen, as this will save you having to wake them up while changing between car, pram sets and back again.
