Buying a Pram Newborn

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

A pram for newborns is a must for newborns and babies. It has an incredibly sturdy, deep carrycot that has soft and secure walls.

A pram comes with a bassinet. However, it can also be converted into a stroller when the baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns must be protected as much as is possible. Buying a stroller or pram with safety features will ensure that your baby is safe and secure while traveling. The basic requirements for any stroller or pram are to have a working brake, a five-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, two waist straps, and a crotch strap) and the wrist tether strap that is for the person pushing the pram. Make sure that the pram you choose meets these standards before you buy.

Find a stroller that allows your baby to travel in the position recommended for lying flat. This position helps support the baby and helps prevent the risk of a dangerous curve in the spine which could cause spinal issues. By keeping the airways open, it reduces the chance of SUID (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or Asphyxiation). Most prams that are used from birth will include the seat unit, which will recline into a lie-flat pram position for younger babies and then transform into a pushchair unit for older children.

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

Always read the instructions and look at the warning labels on 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 isn't being used. It is recommended to remove any bags or objects from the handles since they could cause your baby to get trapped or even suffocate.

Even if the baby is asleep, it's never recommended to leave a stroller or pram unattended. They could wriggle into the pram and become stuck, or roll away and cause injury. Hanging bags or other objects from the handles isn't a good thing since they could fall and strike your child on the head.

Comfort

Having the option of lie flat seating is an absolute must for newborns, as it promotes better lung and back development. A lot of prams come with a cocoon or carrycot that creates a cosy, nest-like environment for your infant and is able to be removed from the frame. Some seats, like the bucket-style seat on egg2, don't recline completely flat, but offer a comfortable ride for your child.

Some prams also have an extra bassinet, newborn inset or stroller seat so you can easily switch between sitting and sleeping modes based on your baby's needs. This is often described as a "travel system and is the very first thing you should do with your newborn.

Choose a stroller that has two shoulder straps that are ideally padded, and a five-point safety harness. It should fit your baby's body comfortably. Be sure there aren't gaps or areas that are loose where fingers could become trapped, and that the buckles are comfortable to use - especially for older children. You should also think about if you would like a pram that is oriented towards parents. It is great to keep an eye on your child and makes them feel more secure seeing their parents.

Some prams, like the Graco Near2Me, come with a nifty raise and lower function that allows your baby to come right up to your face at the touch of the button, which our parents testers absolutely loved! This is a great method to keep eye contact with your baby and stay in touch, especially when they're sleeping. If you're in the market for a travel system, be sure to check whether the frame is compatible with the car capsule you've chosen, as this will save you from having to wake them up every time you're changing between car, pram and back again.

Convenience

When purchasing a newborn pram, it is important to consider your baby's transport needs. Some prams come with a carrycot or bassinet, which allow your baby to be laid flat (essential for their spinal development and breathing) while others have seats that can recline to a lying-flat position. It is important to check the other accessories included in the pram, for instance a footmuff or a changing bag. These are essential to keep your baby warm when it's cold.

Some strollers and prams can be converted to travel systems. You can connect a car pod to the frame with adaptors so that you can transfer your baby from the car to the pram without waking them. push chairs and prams are useful for those who live a hectic lifestyle or you don't have enough space your car boot to accommodate a pram. However, it is important to be aware that you'll need wait until your baby is old enough to sit on their own before you convert them from a car capsule into a pushchair.





Our tester's mother found that the ability to raise or lower the seat of her 10-month-old son was a great feature. One example is the Graco Near2Me which lets your child 'glide closer to you at 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 check that the safety harness you use is safe, fits comfortably and securely (five-point rather than three-point) and can be adjusted as your child grows. You should also be able to store shopping and changing bags in the basket underneath (although be aware that putting on excessive weight can cause it to tip over). If you're not sure which model to pick, check some different models at your local store.
