Buying a Pram Newborn

top prams and pushchairs prams are the multi-functional, flexible companions of caregivers and parents. They are the co-pilots for your child's journey.

A pram newborn is designed for infants and newborns. It comes with a the most solid, sturdy carrycot that has soft and secure walls.

A pram will typically come with a bassinet. However, it can be converted into a stroller seat once baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns are incredibly fragile and need to be kept as secure as possible. A stroller or pram that has safety features will ensure that your baby is in a safe and comfortable environment during travel. The basic requirements for any pram or stroller are to have a working brake, a 5-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, two waist straps and the strap for the crotch) and the wrist tether strap that is for the person pushing the pram. Verify that the stroller you select meets these requirements.

Find a pram that allows your baby to be seated in the suggested lie-flat position. This position is supportive for the baby and helps prevent the risk of a dangerous curve in the spine which can lead to spinal problems. By keeping the airways open, it decreases the risk for SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). The majority of prams can be used as early as the moment of birth. They come with seats that recline to lay flat for infants. It can also be converted to a pushchair for older children.

The suspension of a pram will determine how smooth it rides. A pram with a lot of suspension is likely to be more expensive but it might be worth the cost of this feature if you are planning on using your pram everyday for a couple of years or longer.

You should always be sure to go through the instruction manual and examine the warning labels for your stroller or pram. Also, ensure that your stroller is placed in a secure location away from traffic, bicycles or any other potential hazards when it is not being used. It is important to remove any bags or objects from the handles since they could cause your baby to become caught or suffocate.

Even if your baby is asleep, it's not a good idea to leave a stroller or pram unattended. They can get wriggling and become trapped or the pram could roll away and they might be injured. Hanging bags or other objects on the handles isn't a good thing since they could fall and hit your child in the head.

Comfort

Having the option of lie flat seating is an absolute must for newborns, because it helps improve back and lung development. Cocoons or carrycots are found on many prams. They create a cozy environment that is a comfortable place for your baby and can be detached easily from the frame. Certain seats, like the bucket-style seat on egg2, don't recline completely flat, but they provide an enjoyable ride for your child.

Some prams also have an additional bassinet, infant stroller or inset seat so that you can easily change between sitting and sleeping modes depending on your bub's needs. It is often described as a "travel system" and is the first configuration that you should try out with your newborn.

Choose a stroller compact with two shoulder straps (ideally cushioned) and a five-point safety harness that fits your child's body safely. Make sure there aren't any gaps or loose areas, where fingers could become trapped. Also, make sure that the buckles are easy for older children to use. You should also think about if you would like a pram that is oriented towards parents. It is ideal for keeping an ear on your child and helps them feel more secure having their parents around.

Some prams, such as the Graco Near2Me, come with a handy raise and lower feature that brings your baby close to your face with the push of an button, which our parent testers absolutely loved! This is an excellent way to stay in touch with your baby, especially if they are sleeping. If you're looking to purchase a travel system, be sure that the frame's compatibility with your chosen car capsule to avoid you having to wake them up when changing between car, pram and back again.

Convenience

When buying a pram newborn it is crucial to think about the needs of your baby's transportation. Some prams have an infant bassinet, carrycot or a seat that reclines to an upright position. This is important to ensure your baby's spinal development and breathing. It's also a good idea to look at what other accessories the pram comes with, such as an infant changing bag and a footmuff which are essential to keep your baby warm during the colder winter months.

It's also worth noting that some prams and compact strollers can be transformed into travel systems, permitting you to connect a car capsule with the frame using adaptors, to allow you to easily transfer your child between the car and the pushchair without needing to awake them. This is a great option for those who have a hectic life or don't have a big enough boot for a pram capsule, although it's worth keeping in mind that your baby will need to be old enough and able to sit on their own before you can change them from car capsule to pram.

Another feature you may want to consider is the possibility of raising and lowering your newborn's seat from a low to a high setting, which keeps eye contact with them and keeps them close to you, which our tester for parents found really useful with her 10-month-old boy! An excellent example is the Graco Near2Me, which can lower to allow your child to 'glide towards you at the press of the button, and remain in constant eye contact.

Also, ensure that your pram newborn has a sturdy base and wheels that can handle potholes and bumps. Ensure that you can fold it down easily and ensure that the safety harness is functional and fits comfortably (five-point instead of three-point) and can be adjusted as your child grows. You should also be able store shopping and changing bags inside the basket beneath (although keep in mind that loading the pram with too much weight could cause it to tip over). If you're unsure what to choose, try different models at the local store.
