Choosing a Pushchair Newborn

Choosing a pushchair newborn is one of the most important decisions you will make for your baby. The right model can aid your baby's growth and stay healthy.

Experts advise that young babies should be able to sleep flat to aid breathing and development. This is why a good pushchair has a lie-flat seat.

Seating with a lie-flat

Newborns need a lie-flat position in their pushchair for the first six months as it aids their back development, and breathing. It is important to ensure that the pushchair up to 25kg you're looking at is able to lay flat. Ask the shop assistant to allow you to try a pushchair and see whether your baby is at ease in it.

A baby stroller that comes with a cocoon, carrycot or seats that can be placed flat is a good option for infants. It lets them rest in a upright position while securing their spines and allowing them to breathe normally. Some prams have an infant carrier, while others allow you to connect one separately to the frame. If your baby gets older, you can switch it with the seat.

Most experts agree that it is ideal for babies to be in a pushchair that is facing their parents or carrycot, which allows them to gaze directly at their parents, making it easier to monitor and cater to their needs. However many parents are unsure about what direction to choose or when their baby is able to start facing out into the world.

Travel systems are popular because they permit you to use your newborn's carrycot or cocoon on the frame of the pushchair and then switch over to a reclining seat once your child is older. This saves you the burden of purchasing separate items. Some models also have the option of converting from single to double pushchair as your baby grows, allowing you to be flexible and giving you the opportunity to save money by only purchasing one piece of equipment. It is important to check the weight of the travel system, both with and without the carrycot. It may be heavier than other pushchairs and buggies. This is especially important if you plan to use public transport or travel frequently with your child. You should also check the stability of the travel system and if it's free-standing when folded. You'll need a stroller that is sturdy and able to support the weight of a growing infant.

All-terrain models

The best baby stroller is one that's designed to withstand all kinds of terrain. This is particularly crucial if you prefer to stroll in the countryside or reside in a rural location in which you're likely encounter uneven and bumpy surfaces. There are a variety of models that were specifically designed for this kind of terrain. It is essential to look over the chassis to see whether it has suspension systems that can assist you in riding over rough terrain. The tyres must also be considered if they're air-filled, you may require to carry a pump, or at the very least a puncture repair kit on you.

There are many all-terrain strollers on the market. They include models made by major names in the world of baby equipment. One of the most sought-after is the Out n About Nipper V5 stroller, which has a great reputation and can be used starting at birth with a carrycot or first-stage car seat (not suitable for overnight sleep). The tyres with air-filled tires are ideal for off-roading and its suspension will assist in cushioning your baby's ride. It's also a great option for jogging once your child is old enough.

Another option is the iCandy Core, which can be used in a double or single mode and has a large basket that can accommodate up to 10kg of groceries.

Easy to Manoeuvre

There are a variety of pushchairs, but when choosing one for a baby, you should consider the following factors:

A new born baby should lie flat to promote healthy development of the spine. This can be done best in a pram or carrycot however, as they grow older you can move to a pushchair easy fold, and then a toddler's seat. A 3-in-1 pushchair, also known as a pram travel system bundle - is ideal since it can grow with your child. It's usually an item that has a pram/carrycot attached to it as well as an infant car seat that snaps onto.

You may also want to think about a reversible unit, to allow you to use it with your baby facing you or turn it around and let them explore the world around them. This will keep them calm and content. Some models can even have a parent facing canopy, which will allow you to monitor them and keep an eye on them throughout the journey.

Another factor to consider is the weight of your pushchair. You don't want to carry it on and off public transport or get it in and out of your car regularly Make sure it's lightweight. In addition, you'll need to make sure that the pushchair folds neatly and compactly, making it easier to fit in the trunk of your car.

Make sure that the pushchair can be folded and easily transported when you plan to travel with your children. This is especially crucial if you intend to use it overseas where customs officers may have to inspect your pushchair for safety concerns.

Take note of whether the pushchair is single or linked-handled and whether it has an adjustable height. Linked handles are easier to push with one hand, while single handles let you fold it more compactly. It is possible to consider a height-adjustable steering wheel also, which could be beneficial to any grandparents who may be able to help with it. The most important thing you do not want is to be slogging away for hours trying to put together and take down your pushchair makes, while carrying a baby on board!

Storage space

A large and sturdy basket is vital to keep baby's changing kit and toys. Find a model with a large storage space which you can easily access when using the carrycot, and doesn't require you to take your newborn out of the cot when lifting the lid.

A carrycot is a lightweight portable cot with some sort of handle which can be attached to the frame of a pushchair to make it a travel system. Often used with newborns, they are an essential element of a 'from birth' pushchair as they allow your baby to lay flat, which is beneficial for their spine and lung development.

A sun canopy is a crucial feature of a stroller because it shields your child from the weather. Some models have inbuilt sunshades while others offer removable extendable SPF/UPF 50+ sun canopy. A footmuff is also a good option because it will help keep your baby warm during colder weather - look out for models which include one in the bundle or within their accessories range.
