Buying a New Born Push Chair

This high-end pushchair is perfect for babies due to its premium knit fabric and ergonomically designed support. It is also easy to assemble, and can easily navigate the aisles of a small store.

Pick a model that comes with the carrycot, or a combination of a car seat and a carriercot that is suitable for babies. Some models have an reversible design, which means you can choose whether your baby faces you or the rest of the world.

Safety

The pushchair, sometimes referred to as a buggy or stroller is among the most used baby products. Safety should be the primary consideration when selecting a stroller. Choose a five-point safety harness. The harness locks the child in the seat with five points - two across shoulders two around the hips, two between legs and two in the middle. This system helps prevent the child from tipping out of the seat in the event that it is flipped over or while driving down or up an incline.

For newborns, a carrycot or infant car seats / prams & carrycots are essential. They need to be able to lay flat. This protects their spine development and allows them to breathe freely. This is vital as it reduces the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). Infants should not take long trips in the pushchair that does not have this feature even if it comes with the option of reclining seats.

It is also recommended to buy an infant pushchair that is suitable from birth. The pushchair must be able to be used with a carrycot that can lie flat or an infant car seat or pram. It should also include the seat unit that is fully reversible so that the baby can face either the parent or the world.

Lastly, the wheels of the pushchair need to be strong and have good suspension to minimise vibrations and bumps as well having a brake pedal that is easily accessible. Many pushchairs are fitted with pneumatic tyres that absorb shocks more effectively than tyres that are standard and can run on rough terrain.

Additional accessories such as a raincover, shopping baskets, or changing bags for prams are useful for everyday use, especially when you are running errands with your baby in tow. Many pushchairs have an hood that can be put over the baby's face to shield it from sun or the wind. Some hoods can be adjusted to match the weather.

Comfort

When it comes down to newborn pushchairs, you want one that is comfortable for baby as well as the parent. This can mean padded seats, easy to manoeuvre and sturdy enough for rough terrain. Consider features like weather protection and storage. If you intend to use the pushchair for jogging, or off road adventures you will need an all-terrain pushchair with bigger wheels, designed to provide your child the best comfort on the most uneven terrain.

The ideal pushchair for infants is a pram or travel system that has a carrycot. This allows your baby to sleep in a natural lying position, which is essential for developing the spine and lungs. Some pushchairs that are labeled "suitable from birth" require that your child sit up independently. Check this before you make a purchase.

A bassinet is another option offering a small crib-like area for your baby to relax in, while remaining safe and secure in the pushchair. These are typically a bit more expensive than a traditional foldable pushchair or even a traveling system, but can be worth the extra expense in the event that your baby is happy to be in this kind of seat.

Many pushchairs come with the option of facing the seat towards you, to bond and reassure or to turn away from you to explore the world. They may be referred to by the terms parents-facing or world-facing pushchairs. Some pushchairs with high weight Capacity come with a single to double option. This means that they can be converted to a double pushchair without needing a separate frame.

On hot days, you will want a pushchair parasol to help protect your child from the sun and to prevent overheating. Most manufacturers include this in the pushchair bundle, or offer it as a separate item, so look out for this. You might want to add a footmuff in colder weather. It will keep your baby warm. There's a broad variety of them, with most being fully machine washable.

Style

It is important to pay attention to particulars when choosing the latest baby pushchair because this is one of the most popular products. For instance, some models are made to be used on rough terrain and have large wheels and a heavier duty frame. Others are more lightweight and easy to move, particularly when folded. Some models come with adjustable seat padding, a extendable SPF canopies and a footmuff that keeps warm during colder months.

It is recommended to lie newborns flat on their backs, as this assists in spinal development and opens their airways. It is best to use a pram/pushchair with the carrycot or travel system. Some pushchairs feature a reclining seat unit or carrycot that are suitable from the time of birth. It is crucial to ensure that this feature is included as some descriptions simply mention a reclining chair without clarifying this is a lie-flat option.

Most pushchairs let you choose between a parent facing or a world-facing unit. This lets you choose whether your baby faces you for bonding or reassurance or away from you in order to explore the world. Some pushchairs allow both simultaneously!

Many pushchairs are equipped with a range of accessories, including baskets and shopping trays that help parents. Some pushchairs include an inbuilt sunshade that is made of UPF50 or SPF+ fabrics. This protects the baby against the sun. Other popular accessories include parasols that are attached to the frame of the pushchair, or sunmuffs which are often sold separately.

Budget

A new pram is likely to be one of your baby's most expensive items therefore it's essential to research and purchase within your budget. Remember that you will use your pram for many years and that it's the most commonly used item. You should pick one that is compatible with your lifestyle and is comfortable both for both you and your child.

Think about purchasing a travel set-up which includes a carrycot and seat. This is the most safest method of transporting a newborn as it ensures that they are lying flat. This is the most effective way to protect their spinal development and open up their airways. Newborns should be transported lying flat until they reach the age of six months.

Some pushchairs are able to be used from birth, and come with seats that fully recline to a flat position. This is important because it protects a newborn's growing spine and allows them to sleep comfortably on long journeys. It's important to remember that not all pushchairs that state they are 'lie-flat' actually have a full flat position and you should confirm this prior to purchasing.

Consider a model that has a large basket for everything your baby needs and other necessities. The basket should be easily accessible and you should not have to struggle to get your shopping in or out of your baby's carrycot.

Another factor to consider is the wheels, which can vary between models. Certain models have wheels that can be locked, swivelled, or fixed to aid in maneuvering the pushchair. Some have larger wheels, which can be more robust on rough terrain, or are fitted with PU tyres that are designed to be puncture-resistant.

Consider the size of the handlebar and whether it is adjustable to your height. Lastly, you need to ensure that the pushchair folds small enough to fit in your boot, car or on public transport. Certain models, such as the Joie Vinca, have a one-handed fold that was highly reviewed by our MFM home testers and was awarded a Gold Award in previous MadeForMums awards.
