Newborn Bedside Cot

A newborn bedside cot is a tiny sleeper that allows new babies to sleep in the same space as their parents without the risk of sleeping together (which the AAP recommends against due to SIDS and suffocation). It also makes nursing sessions and child care easier.

This mattress has an extremely firm mattress that can support babies backs, which reduces the risk of SIDS. It can swivel over the bed of your adult to allow you to lift your child out for midnight nursing or sunrise cuddles.

Budget

A bedside cot, also referred to as a co-sleeper, a bassinet-style baby cot that can be attached to your existing bed. This lets you reach your baby easily and safely for a mid-night feed or cuddles. They are a great choice for mums or new parents recovering from a c-section as they provide the baby with easy access and do not require you to get up from your bed.

There are a variety of styles that are available, from the basic ones with just a drop down side to more sophisticated ones that offer multiple adjustment options, including incline or height. The majority of them can be converted to an independent crib once your baby grows older and is sleeping longer at night.

One of our favourites is the Maxi-Cosi Lora that was shortlisted for the 2021 Mother&Baby awards, including the categories of Best Cot, Crib or Moses Basket. MFM home tester Emily noted how stylish and modern the design was. She also liked the fact that it could be used as a bassinet, or clipped to your existing bed for a safe side-by-side sleep. She also admired the soft mattress that was able to pass our test of firmness and the fact that it comes with a manual rocking feature that can be set to a slight incline for those suffering from reflux.

She didn't like the fact that it had a mesh panel on the bottom and she thought it was too heavy to move from room to room. She also found it to be a bit heavy to carry up and down the stairs once it was folded up into its bag for travel.

Size

A bedside cot is the bassinet, which is connected to the bed's side. It's easy to reach your baby's side to feed, change nappies or just to soothe them during the night. It's ideal for mothers recovering from an o-section.

The NHS and Lullaby Trust advise that you keep your baby in the same space as you, but separated from you for the first six months, since this will help decrease the risk of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome). A bedside crib is a safe way to achieve this as it is low-sided and lets you easily access your newborn during the night.

It is crucial that your baby is sleeping on a firm and not a soft mattress. Babies don't have motor control to rotate and a mattress that is soft can increase the risk of drowning. The breathable fabric and skin-friendly materials make this mattress comfortable for your baby but also sufficient to ensure safety.

Mum Jasmin was delighted that the crib didn't take up much space in her room and found it to be the ideal size for a baby. She also said that the mattress was excellent quality, in contrast to those that feel cheap and thin. She also appreciates that it has a storage space underneath for bedding and clothes which other bassinets do not have.

Mehack, a MFM mom who tried the product at home, likes that you can take off the wall on the side to make it easier to access your baby. She also likes that the legs tuck under the bed so it doesn't appear heavy or take up a lot of floor space. She is also impressed by how easy it was to move around the house when she needed to for check-ins and feedings in the middle of the night.

The CoZee Air crib is a favorite among parents. It was awarded a Gold Award at the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards. It features a unique design with four pulleys which can be used to raise or lower your crib. There is also an ample basket for blankets, toys, and other items. It's also easy to put together and light that is great for traveling with your baby.

Safety

It is crucial to think about the safety of a newborn bedside crib. The official safe sleep guidelines from both the Lullaby Trust and NHS recommends that babies should not sleep in their parents' beds because of the risks of suffocation, overheating and a greater chance of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Bassinets for bedside use let parents keep their baby close, facilitating feeding at night, comforting and monitoring without the need to get out of bed.

This close proximity can help breastfeeding mothers as it lets them attend to the needs of their baby while they sleep. This can help to maintain the supply of milk and also encourage breastfeeding. Some bedside crib with wheels cots have adjustable height features that can help to ensure that the bassinet is a comfortable height for both mother and baby for easy access for middle-of-the-night feedings or care.

Many bassinets have a firm mattress that is designed to reduce the risk of suffocation and conforms to industry standards. It is essential to provide support for the bones of a newborn, as they are still soft and not fully formed. The mattress should be covered with a fitted sheet in order to decrease the risk that dust mites or other allergens, could suffocate a child. It must be kept free of allergens and clean.

Some cots for bedside use have the ability to be tilted. This can be beneficial for babies suffering from reflux or digestive issues, but it should be done with great caution and at a gentle angle. It is also essential to avoid adding pillows, duvets or padded crib bumpers to the bassinet, as they can create an obstructing risk to your baby and should only be used when the cot is set on flat surfaces.

It's also worth considering an infant bassinet that has an attached system that is secure and can be easily fixed to your bed without the necessity of tools. This is especially beneficial for parents who struggle to lift their baby into and out of the cot or who are concerned about rolling over during sleep. If your bassinet is equipped with an attachment that is secure it is a good idea for you to regularly check it. Check to ensure there are no gaps and that the system is securely attached.

Comfort

If you're a soon-to-be parent, your baby's comfort is one of your primary concerns. There's a great sleep solution that allows you to keep your baby close during the night - without any of the risks that come with sharing a bed. The newborn bedside cot is essentially a bassinet-style cot that is attached to the bed's side, allowing you to safely move them towards you to feed them at night and soothe. It's also a great choice for mothers who are recovering from a C-section since it will not require you to stand up or sit up.

A modern bedside cot for newborns should have a firm flat mattress to promote safe sleeping practices and decrease the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). Bedding should be easy with just a cot sheet and a blanket tightly tucked at the bottom. Avoid toys, bumpers and pillows because they could be thrown over your baby and pose a danger of suffocation. If your baby bedside crib is used to being swaddled, you can use a swaddle or a baby sleep bag for the initial few weeks, but it should be removed when possible after they've gained the strength and confidence to unwrap themselves.

Some cribs for bedside use a removable or drop-down side that allows for the baby to be easily accessible for feeding and comfort in the middle of the night. This is a great feature for parents who wish to keep a close relationship with their child, while adhering to NHS sleep guidelines. If you plan to co-sleep with your child, it is important to know that this practice could increase the chance of SIDS. This is especially true if a parent accidentally falls on their child while sleeping.

A fabric that breathes will keep your baby comfortable and cool throughout the night. This is particularly important if you plan to sleep with your baby since the risk of being overheated when sleeping increases. The SnuzPod4 features an exclusive breathable side panel that aids in improving airflow, keeping your baby warm.
