Choosing a Large Bedside Cot Bedside cots, also referred to as bassinets and co-sleepers, are designed to allow parents to rest close to their children at night, without the risk of SIDS. However they are only recommended for use up to 6 months when your baby is required to move into a cot, or a moses basket. MFM home tester Mehack loved that this model comes with a bassinet that can be lifted off to use in the home and an option to rock manually. It was also simple to put together and came in its own bag for easy storage. Size Cots and cot beds vary in terms of size and size, with cots being a bit smaller than beds for cots. They also can be converted into toddler beds, whereas the cot beds are typically used until three years old. old. There are two sizes of wooden cots – big and standard that can be converted into a toddler bed or cot. If you wish for your child (or children) to be comfortable sleeping in the larger cot, it's a good idea to choose the larger one. Jasmine, an MFM mum who tested the product at home, was pleased that it was slightly larger than a Moses' basket but still not too big for the room of her baby. She says that it is easy to get the baby into and out of the cot during evening feedings or to soothe and that the quality is far superior to other cots she has seen that are less sturdy. Another home tester, Emily, likes how versatile the Maxi-Cosi Lora is it's a drop-off bassinet that you can move around the home, and it's rocking too. bedside co sleeper has an incline of reflux as well as a machine washable liner that is breathable. And it was shortlisted in the 2021 Mother&Baby awards for the Best Cot Crib, Crib, or Moses Basket. The Lora is compatible with a South African cot mattress unlike many international or European brands. This means that you don't have to purchase an entirely new mattress each time your baby grows. It will require a specific bedding set (60x120cm). Here you can find the perfect mattress for your cot. Height When choosing a bedside cot, look for one that can be raised to a level that is comfortable for you when feeding the baby. It should also be able to be lowered to the ground so that you can lift your baby closer to you during night feedings or to soothe. This feature is especially useful if you are recovering from a C-section. For example the Next2me and Tutti Bambini cots can be adjusted to a height of 58cm while the Snuzpod 3 goes up to 63cm, and the Knuma Huddle up to 70cm. Another thing to think about is the height you would like to set for the base of your cot to be. While some mums find it easier to lift their babies out of standard Moses baskets at the lowest level, some mothers prefer a higher base to give them more stability. One of our mum testers said that the Joie Roomie Glide was a popular option. It is an easily collapsible side that you can push at the press of a button. Remember that a bassinet/bedside sleeper should not be used until your baby is able to hold their head up without assistance typically around 6 months. This is due to the possibility of being suffocated. It is also important to remember that if you opt for a bassinet/bedside sleeper that can be converted into a crib, you will need to start removing the sides when your child is able to do this to ensure they don't get out of bed or get out of bed. Design There are many different styles of bedside cribs, from basic to extravagant. The most luxurious models could include features such as an integrated night light, a soothing centre that plays music and sounds and has two levels of vibrations to help soothe baby back to sleep, or a swivelling base that allows you to easily get your baby's food in the right place. There are also models that can be converted to the form of a toddler bed or cot bed (or both) which is ideal when your child is ready to transition to a larger bed. The Tutti Bambini CoZee Air For instance was awarded Bronze at the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards in the Best Cot Moses Basket or Crib category. It features a swivelling bottom that allows you to pick up your baby and transfer them to the other side of the crib without having to get out of bed. This makes it ideal for new mothers who are recovering from Caesareans or who require the bed for extended periods of time. Jasmine, a MFM mother who tested the product at home, said it was easy to operate and made it easier to reach her baby, especially after a c-section. Another option is the Chicco Next2me Magic, which has won Gold at the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards in the category of Best Cot, Crib or Moses Basket. It also is equipped with an easy-to-clean liner, reflux incline and rocking function. It's a bit larger than some of the other cribs for bed we've tried, but it folds flat in its bag for travel, so it is relatively compact when not in use. Leya, MFM mum home tester, also praised the bedside crib's functionality. She said it was designed to be used by parents and infants. It is easy to move and super-sturdy. Its swivelling base is brilliant because it allows you to move the bassinet side to side, and one of its sides can be lowered down to ease access – particularly for new mums who are recovering from their C-sections,' she added. Safety The most important safety feature of a large bedside cot is that it is able to be raised or lowered to enable parents to reach their child when they require to feed, comfort them, or change their nappies. This is ideal for mothers who are recovering from an C-section. It is recommended to choose an option that allows you to lower the bed's side with a simple button press. This will allow you to easily lift your child without getting out of bed. This is essential, especially as your baby grows and becomes more mobile. Beware of items that could increase the risk of injury or suffocation such as duvets and pillowcases, which can cause your baby to become overheated. The CPSC's NPR includes 24 incidents that are attributed to issues with the product, such as gaps between a bedside sleeper (adult bed) and the bedside sleeper (12 incidents) as well as enclosed openings made of fabric (11) and consumer assembly errors (6 incidents). In its NPR In its NPR, the CPSC examined the possibility of adding additional requirements for bedside sleepers, like the requirement that these products meet the minimum side height requirement for bassinets or at the very least, meet the maximum height requirement for the lowered side rail. However the CPSC determined that these requirements would not be efficient or feasible to reduce the number of incidents where infants were trapped between the bedside sleeper and an adult bed. A majority of the incidents reported in the NPR included bedside sleepers with multiple uses which can be converted to other modes such as play yards and bassinets. A number of commenters suggested that the CPSC include in the proposed rule an alternative provision for multiuse bedside sleepers to enable them to meet the minimum side-height requirement of bassinets through the use of a removable attachment that can be connected permanently or removed when the product is not being used as an actual bassinet. The CPSC is currently reviewing these comments and others received in response to the NPR on bedside sleeping. The Commission will be examining these comments when it decides on the final rule, which is expected to be released in the month of November 2021.
