Buying a Pram Newborn

Prams and pushchairs are the multi-functional, multi-purpose allies of parents and caregivers. They are the co-pilots of your child's journey.

A pram newborn is a must for infants and newborns. It comes with a a deep, sturdy carrycot with soft and safe walls.

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

Safety

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

Find a pram that allows your baby to ride in the position recommended for lying flat. This position is supportive for your baby and helps prevent the development of a risky spinal curve that could cause spinal problems. By keeping the airways open, it reduces the risk for SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). Most best prams that are used from birth will come with the seat unit, which will recline into a lie-flat pram position for babies younger than the age of one and transform into a pushchair unit for older children.

The suspension of the pram will determine how smoothly it rides. A pram double with lots of spring suspension will cost more, but it is worth the extra expense when you intend to use your pram every day for a few years or longer.

Always read the directions and carefully read the warning labels on your stroller or pram. When not in use, you should keep your stroller away from potential dangers such as bicycles, traffic or other people. Also, you should remove any bags or other objects from the handles, since they could cause your baby to get caught or choke.

Even if the baby seems asleep, it's never recommended to leave a pram or stroller unattended. They could wriggle into the pram and become trapped, or it could be pushed away and cause injuries. It's also not recommended to hang bags or other objects on the handles since they may fall and hit your baby in the head.

Comfort

Having the option of lie flat seating is an absolute must for newborns, since it aids in better back and lung development. Cocoons or carrycots are found on many prams. They create a nest-like space that is a comfortable place for your baby and can be removed easily from the frame. Other models, such as the egg2's bucket-style seat don't recline to lie flat but still provide a comfy ride for your baby.

Some prams come with a separate seat or bassinet for the newborn. This lets you effortlessly switch between sitting and sleeping positions based on the needs of your baby. It is commonly described as a "travel system' and is the first thing you should do with your baby.

Find a pram that has two shoulder straps (ideally with padding) and a functional five-point safety harness that fits your baby's body safely. Be sure there aren't gaps or areas that are loose where fingers could get trapped and that the buckles are simple to use, especially for older children. It is also important to consider if you'd like a parent-facing pram. It is ideal to keep an eye on your child and makes them feel more secure seeing their parents.

Our testers with parents loved the feature of certain sale prams like the Graco Near2Me, which allows you to raise your baby and lower it at the touch of the button. This is an excellent way to stay connected to your baby, especially if they are asleep. If you're looking for a travel system that is compatible with the car capsule you pick you won't have to wake your baby up to switch between the pram and car.

Convenience

When buying a pram newborn (in the know) it is crucial to think about your baby's transport needs. Some prams include a bassinet, carrycot or a seat that can recline to a flat position. This is important for your baby's spinal development and breathing. It is important to check the other accessories that are included in the pram, such as a footmuff and changing bag. These are essential to keep your baby warm in the event of cold.

It's worth noting that certain compact strollers and prams can be converted into travel systems, which allows you to connect a car capsule with the frame using adaptors, to allow you to easily transfer your baby between the car and the pushchair without having to get them up. These are useful 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 to wait until your child is old enough to sit on their own before you convert them from a car capsule to a pushchair.

Our tester's mother found that the ability to raise or lower the seat of her son's 10 months old was a great feature. One example is the Graco Near2Me that lets your child 'glide up' to you with the push of an button.

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