Buying a New Born Push Chair

A premium pushchair that's ideal for babies due to its luxurious fabric and ergonomic support. It's also easy to put together and easily navigate the aisles of a small store.

Pick a model that comes with the carrycot, or a combination of car seats and a carriercot that is suitable for infants. Some have a reversible seat unit that allows you to have your baby either face either you or the world.

Safety

The pushchair, also known as a stroller or buggy, is one of the most commonly used baby products. Safety is the primary consideration when selecting the right pushchair. The first thing you should look for is a harness with five points. This harness locks the child in the seat using five points - two across shoulders two around the hips, two between legs and two in the middle. This system prevents the child from sliding out of the seat in the event that the vehicle falls over, or when driving up a kerb that is steep.

For newborns, a carrycot or infant car seats / prams & carrycots are vital. They should be able to lay flat. This helps protect their spine and allows them to breathe freely. This is important as it reduces the chance of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Newborn babies should not travel long distances in the pushchair that doesn't have this facility even if they are able to be pushed using a reclining seat unit.

It is also recommended to purchase a pushchair suitable from the time of birth. The pushchair should be capable of being used with a carrycot that is able to lay flat or with an infant car seat/pram. It should also include an infant seat that can be completely reversible, so that the child can face either the parent or the world.

The wheels of the stroller must be sturdy, have good suspension and be easily accessible. Many pushchairs are fitted with pneumatic tyres that can absorb shocks better than tyres that are standard and can be used on terrains that are rough.

Accessories like shopping baskets, pram changing bags, or raincovers are useful, especially if you are conducting errands when your baby is tucked in. Many pushchairs come with the option of a hood that is put over the baby's head to shield them from the sun and wind. Some hoods can be adjusted to suit the weather.

Comfort

When it comes to newborn pushchairs, you want one that is comfortable for the baby and parent. This could mean padded seats that are easy to maneuver and strong enough for rough terrain. Think about features such as storage and protection from the weather. If you plan to use the stroller to run, or off-road adventures then you'll require an infant stroller with bigger wheels. This will give your child the best comfort on the most uneven terrain.

The best pushchair easy fold for a newborn would be a pram or travel system that comes with a carry cot, allowing your baby to rest in their natural lying flat position, which is vital for healthy spine and lung development. Some pushchairs that are labelled as suitable for babies will actually require your child to stand independently before they are able to be used, so always check this before buying.

A bassinet is an alternative offering a small cot-like space for your newborn to relax in, while remaining safe and secure in the pushchair. These seats are typically more expensive than a travel system. But, if your child is comfortable in the seat, it might be worth the price.

Many pushchairs come with the option of facing the seat towards you to bond and reassure or, if you prefer, away from you to explore the world. They may be referred to by the terms parent-facing or world-facing pushchairs buggies. Some pushchairs come with an option to convert them from single to double. This means they can be converted into a double pushchair without needing an additional frame.

In hot weather you'll require an umbrella for your pushchair to protect your baby from the sun and prevent overheating. Find it in pushchair bundles or separately. In colder weather you might want to purchase a footmuff that will keep your baby warm and snug. These are available in a variety of designs, and the majority are machine washable.

Style

When shopping for a new push chair it is crucial to consider the finer points, particularly since it is likely to be among the most used baby items. Some models are built for rough terrain and come with larger wheels and a robust frame. Some models are lighter and easier to move when folded. Some have adjustable seat cushions, an extensible SPF canopy, and an insulated footmuff for colder climates.

It is recommended that you lay newborns flat on their backs, as this aids in the development of their spine and opens their airways. It is recommended to use a pushchair or pram with a carrycot or a travel system. Some pushchairs feature a reclined seat or carrycot, and are suitable for babies from the time of birth. It is crucial to ensure whether this feature is present since some descriptions simply state a reclining seat without defining if it is a lie-flat option.

Most pushchairs provide the option of facing your child's face or a world facing seat to allow you to have your baby face you for bonding and reassurance or away from you so they can explore the world around them. Some pushchairs offer both options simultaneously!

Many pushchairs come with accessories such as shopping baskets and trays to make life easier for parents. Some pushchairs include an inbuilt sunshade that is made of SPF or UPF50+ fabrics. This protects your baby from sun. Other popular accessories include a sunshade which can be attached by clamps to the pushchair frame or a sunmuff that is usually included in the package or sold as an additional.

Budget

It's essential to spend time researching your options and stick to your budget. Keep in mind that you will use your pram for a long time and that it's the most frequently used item. You should pick one that suits your needs and is comfortable both for you and your child.

Think about purchasing a travel set-up which includes a carrycot and seat. This is the safest method to transport a newborn, because it makes sure they sleep flat. This is the most effective way to protect their spinal development and open their airways. Newborns should be carried in a lie-flat position until they reach six months old.

Some pushchairs are able to be used from birth and come with seats that fully recline to an upright position. This is crucial because it protects a newborn's spine as it develops and allows them to rest comfortably during long journeys. It is important to remember that not all pushchairs marked "lie-flat" actually provide a completely flat position. You should verify this prior to purchasing.

It is also worth thinking about the option of a model that has a large shopping basket, which will be essential to store all your baby's essentials and other things. The basket should be easy to access and you shouldn't have to struggle to get your shopping done or out of your baby's carrycot.

Another consideration is the wheels, which differ between models. Some models have wheels that can be locked, swivelled, or fixed to assist you in moving the pushchair. Some have larger wheels, which can be more stable on rough terrain, or have PU tires that are made to resist puncture.

Take note of the size of the handlebar, and if it can be adjusted to your height. Additionally, you should make sure the pushchair folds enough to fit into your car's boot or onto public transport. Some models, such as the Joie Vinca have one-handed folds that was highly reviewed by MFM home testers. It earned it an Gold Award at previous MadeForMums Awards.
