Bedside Sleeper Cot

A bedside sleeper cot (also called a bassinet) can be attached to the bed's side to ensure that your baby is close enough to be able to enjoy night feeding but safe within their own space to sleep. Our mums appreciate that they are simple to reach and that they can also swivel or lower the sides to get closer.

Safety

The bedside sleeper allows parents to supervise, comfort and feed their infants at the night without worrying about the dangers of sharing a bed. This can result in Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. The cots comply with NHS guidelines for co-sleeping, and are recommended by childcare experts like Dr McKenna director of Mother-Baby Behavioural Sleep Laboratory.

They also foster healthy attachment and breastfeeding by keeping babies close. This will help them reach their developmental milestones. Parents should search for bassinets that are simple to clean, safe to use, and are certified by a respected organization such as JPMA.

In 2023, ASTM updated its version of the bedside sleeping voluntary standard F2906 to respond to newer products that convert an infant bassinet to a bedside baby bed sleeper by lowering one side rail to an adult bed, which allows certain areas of the lower part to be at an elevated level above the mattress, presenting an increased risk for entrapment. The CPSC's direct final rule incorporates this 2023 revision to the current mandatory standard under section 104 of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA) for products for toddlers and infants that have been used for longer than 180 days and is expected to reduce the risk of injuries.

It is important to remember that a bassinet or bedside sleeper, should not be used in conjunction with pillows or blankets. This could pose the risk of suffocation since many young babies cannot lift their heads enough to remove them from soft objects and a reclining position can cause the head to slide forward, blocking their airway. Always place your child on their backs when using a bassinet, a crib or play yard. Use a fitted sheet that meets the federal requirements.

Convenience

It is important to keep your baby close during the night. This helps create a bond between parents and newborns. Bedside sleeper bassinets attach securely to the side of your bed, allowing you to easily reach your baby for middle-of-the-night diaper changes, feedings and comforting. We searched for models with mesh sides that were transparent enough to allow for visibility, so you could keep an eye on your child without needing to leave the bed.

It is crucial that the bassinet you select is deemed safe for infants by an independent testing agency, and meets all the requirements of the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Make sure you choose a large base, a strong attachment mechanism and sturdy construction which prevents the bassinet from tipping over. A comfortable mattress is crucial also.

Look for a model with a manual rocking feature that's gentle on your baby and will help settle them to sleep. Certain models also have tilting options that can be helpful for babies suffering from colic or reflux, but should only be used with the advice of your GP or health care professional.

Some bassinets come with mattresses, while others require you to purchase a mattress separately. Be sure to purchase one that is made to fit your bedside crib sleeper bassinet. Second-hand mattresses may be too soft and carry the risk of SIDS. You'll also have to invest in a breathable fitted sheet and muslin blanket for your baby. To make cleaning easier, check that the lining of the fabric or mattress can be washed in a machine. A storage shelf or a basket can be a useful feature to store things like nappies or muslins, clothing, and nappies. There are also models with wheels that allow for mobility around the house.

Support for Breastfeeding

If you decide to breastfeed, a bedside sleeper cot will help you get the most out of your feedings at night. By attaching to your bed, it allows you to reach easily when your baby wakes up to feed. The travel cot bedside crib's side can then drop down to create a bassinet that is shallow for safe side-by-side sleeping. Certain models can also tilt to support reflux.

The curved sides make it easy to see and help lift your baby up for a feeding. They won't slide off the side. Some bedside sleeper cribs have an automatic rocking feature that can help your child relax and encourage them to go back to sleep faster after a feeding.

If you want to keep your baby clean, a cosy fabric and removable bedding that can be machine-washed are a great option. Some models feature gentle rocking and vibration features which can help soothe your baby to sleep. Breastfeeding mothers will also appreciate having plenty of storage.

Bed-sharing is a popular choice for breastfeeding mothers because it is easy and allows them to have an intimate bond with their baby during their sleep. Research shows that breastfed babies who share a sleeping space with their mothers are more successful than babies who are bottle-fed. But, it is crucial that you know the safety dangers and procedures involved in sharing a crib with a newborn and choose a safe mattress for your baby.

Some in-bed sleeping bags have soft surfaces on the edges that can trap your baby. Be sure to not let your bedside cot bed device slide backwards. This could result in an opening in which your child can crawl or roll.

If you're worried about the safety a baby or mother sleeping close to you, go to a LLL meeting. Or talk with a Sleep Leader about the sleeping habits. They can help you create an environment for sleep that is safe for your baby, and explain the risks of SIDS. They can also show you how to get the'sweet sleep' that nursing mothers enjoy, which includes many protection factors that are similar to breastfeeding.
