They're a great choice for infants. bedside crib and travel cot with adjustable height positions will fit perfectly on most bed frames. Also look for breathable fabrics that are easy to clean. Safety A bedside cot is basically a bassinet-style cot that fixes to the side of your bed to allow secure co-sleeping. It can be used to lift your baby to you for comfort, feeding or soothing at the night. It's also a great option if you had a c-section. It's different from a Moses basket or cot due to the fact that it has high sides so your baby can't be pushed out. Some models come with a tilt feature that can aid babies suffering from colic and reflux. They are also slightly bigger than Moses baskets, making them easier to move from room room. The NHS and The Lullaby Trust, a safe sleep charity, recommend that newborns be kept in a bassinet or cot that is in the same room as their parents. They should not be in your bed. This is because bed-sharing increases the risk of suffocation and overheating. Bedside cribs offer the best of both worlds by giving your baby the opportunity to be close to you during the night, but in their own safe and separate sleeping space. When choosing a bedside crib, check that it meets the latest safety standards (it must be BS EN 1130:2019) and has no gaps or parts that could cause your baby to get trapped. Choose a mattress that has an even, firm surface. A soft or sagging mattress could increase the risk of SIDS, so choose for a new one instead of a second-hand. Make sure your bedding is well-fitted and does not have loose blankets or pillowcases. Duvets and pillows can choke your baby, and pillows can get stuck to their faces. It's a good idea to opt for a fitted sheet however, make sure it fits properly. Our MFM mum testers have found that the SnuzPod4 is an excellent choice for a bedside crib, being shortlisted for the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards in the Best Cot, Crib or Moses Basket category. It is attached securely to the bed and it has an adjustable height for an ideal fit. It also comes with a rocking function and can be set to an incline for reflux. bedside crib and travel cot is also an excellent option for those with bed sizes that are small or narrow as it doesn't take up the entire space. Design It is crucial to think about the design of your bedside crib, as this will be the area where your baby will spend the majority of their time. There are many cribs available in a range of colors that match your decor. Some have features such as mesh windows to keep your baby visible or drop-down sides to facilitate access. Some even have incline functions to aid in reflux. Most cribs can also be raised and lowered to fit the height of your bed, making it simple to get into and out of bed at time of night. There are even some that are designed to work as travel cots, which are great when you're traveling or visiting relatives. Home tester and MFM mom Leya found that the SnuzPod 4's stylish Scandi design complemented her bedroom decor, adding that its compact fold was perfect to save space. She also appreciated the fact that one side of the crib can be lowered, allowing her pick up her baby without having to get out of bed. This is particularly helpful if you've been through a Caesarean or are recovering from one. You can remain close to your baby for a longer time. Another mum who enjoyed using the SnuzPod 4 was Jasmine who noted that it was easy to move from room room - something she didn't discover with other cribs for bedside that she tried. She did mention that the handle was stiff and it took quite a bit of effort to lift the crib. Another bedside crib that's simple to fold and move is the Tutti Bambini CoZee Air, which was shortlisted in the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards for best Cot Crib, Moses Basket. Its slim frame and neutral colors will fit in with all bedrooms, though some of our home testers thought the bars were too close together, which means they could catch on clothes or baby toys. The bars' distance should not exceed 6.5cm (2 inches) in order to keep your baby's head from becoming stuck. This crib is ideal for babies who have reflux, as its ComfortAir breathability technology helps regulate their temperature. Comfort Staying close to your baby throughout the night will give you peace of mind, however, you need to be able to reach them quickly for middle-of-the-night feeding. With a bedside crib you can do this easily without getting out of the bed. They also make it simple to help babies fall asleep. If, however, you'd like to lay down with your baby but don't want the hassle of having to get out of bed to feed your baby A moses basket is an ideal choice. Most bedside cribs can be attached to the sides of your bed that allows you to see and reach your baby easily. They usually have a mesh window which allows you to observe your baby without having to disturb them. There is also an option to treat reflux that can help with reflux and colic. The crib is loaded with a variety of features, but we're most impressed by the ComfortAir mattress that is breathable and regulates your baby's body temperature and increases airflow. It's smaller than other bedside cribs which could be useful in areas with limited space. However, our mom testers agree that it's still an excellent choice for those long sleeps. The cot is secured to the bed's side by means of adjustable straps. This minimizes the chance of gaps in which your child can get trapped. It also comes with a firm and flat mattress that meets safety standards and promotes the safest sleeping practices. One thing to bear in mind is that your baby could begin to climb out of the crib when they're able to sit up typically around six months. It's important that you place your child in a cot, or in a different arrangement for sleeping, once they outgrow their crib. A cot that is light and suitable for travel is an additional aspect to consider. Many of our mothers appreciate the fact that this crib can be taken apart for transport, but others find it difficult to assemble. It can be difficult to clean, so you'll have to clean it often using the aid of a cleaner and a cloth. Storage A bedside cot suitable for 6 months and up is a bassinet-style bed that can be attached to the mattress's side for secure co-sleeping. These are great for calming babies to sleep, for night feedings, and for mothers who had a c-section to keep their baby close. When you are choosing a crib for your bed, it's important to make sure that it meets current safety standards. Check that the crib's bars are spaced sufficiently apart to prevent your child's head from becoming trapped. Also, ensure that any drop-down side is secured and doesn't open accidentally. Also, stay clear of any stickers or transfers on the cot's surface as they could be dangerous to choking. Emily's top pick for a bedside cot is the Next2me Magic, which was shortlisted in the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards for Best Cot Crib, Crib, or Moses Basket. It's a good size and has lots of storage space for all the baby necessities. It's also compact and light enough to fit in a travel bag should you have to transport it from room to room. If you're looking for something a bit simpler, she recommends the Shnuggle Air beside crib.
