Choosing Between a baby bedside co sleeper (enquiry) and a Bassinet

New parents have many options when it comes down to sleeping arrangements for their newborn. Some consider co-sleeping (which the AAP cautions against due the risk of suffocation), while others want the convenience of having their baby close to them for diaper changes and feedings.

A baby bedside crib travel cot co sleeper is a great alternative to a bassinet or crib that attaches to the side of the parent's bed for secure, easy access. MFM home testers have praised the practical, stylish design of this alternative.

Safety

A bedside co-sleeper is also referred to as a sidecar bassinet, is an ideal baby sleep solution that allows newborns to sleep with their parents without placing them at risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. It's a part of rooming-in, the practice employed in hospitals to help newborns establish a bond with their dad or mom as they learn to self-sooth themselves to sleep. When choosing a sleeping solution parents must weigh the pros and cons of both bedside co sleepers and regular bassinets.

The most important aspect of a baby bedside co sleeper is safety. Find models with strong frames that are breathable, with no loose parts that could create the risk of choking. A breathable mattress is essential and it is recommended to look for mattresses that can be machine washed for effortless cleaning. Also, ensure that the mattress is level and firm without blankets or pillows, since this will reduce the risk of a suffocation accident that could happen accidentally.

Another factor to consider is whether the unit is easily accessible from the parent's bed. This will allow for feedings at night and a better monitoring of the baby's condition during their sleep. Contrary to that, many regular bassinets are placed far enough away from the bed of the parent that they may require a step-up to reach the sleeping area.

Proximity to the parents is another factor that many are considering when deciding between a bedside co sleeper vs bassinet. Some parents prefer a co-sleeper because of the close physical connection it creates, while other parents are concerned about the risk of suffocation or roll-off that comes with bed sharing. Some of the highest-rated bedside sleepers, like the babybay foldable bedside crib co sleeper and the Snoo smart sleeper are designed to alleviate these worries with the wood-slat design, which resembles the cribs in which babies were born as well as the swaddle sack, which prevents them from moving around in their sleep.

Consider the Arm's Reach Clear-Vue Co-Sleeper if unsure about the risks of co-sleeping. This bassinet-style co sleeper creates a safe and secure environment for sleeping by securing directly to the side of your bed with a narrow barrier that ensures you can view and reach your baby.

Comfort

No matter what type of sleeper you select it's crucial to ensure that your baby can sleep comfortably. This means that you must ensure that the crib is sturdy and flat with no gaps between the mattress and the baby's bed. Some co-sleepers use soft mattresses and fluffy padding which can put your baby at risk of SIDS. For this reason, we recommend using a mattress protector to stop any gaps or sagging.

Another crucial aspect to think about is breathability. The models we reviewed have mesh sides with breathable mesh that lets your baby breathe while remaining safe. There are other models too, such as the Baby Delight or HALO BassiNest essencetia also have excellent ventilation.

If your bedside sleeper offers tilt options, this can be beneficial to babies with digestive issues or reflux. Some of the top sleepers we've seen, like the HALO Swivel BassiNest Sleeper 3.0 has a slight tilt that could be beneficial to your baby, while reducing the chance of suffocation as well as falling.

Some parents prefer a bassinet that is attached to the bed, while others prefer a sleeper connected to the bed. These models can be attached to the parents' bed which allows them to easily reach their newborn for middle-of-the-night feedings and reassuring. Bedside sleepers can also be used in a co-sleeping technique called rooming-in. This reduces the risk of sudden infant death syndrome, and encourages parents and babies to bond.

In the end, it's up to each family to decide which is best for them. We hope that this guide has been useful in your search for the perfect rocking bedside crib sleeper for your infant. To stay clear of any dangers, whether you choose a bassinet or a bedside co-sleeper make sure you follow the AAP's safe sleeping guidelines. Good luck!

There are a number of different co sleepers available on the market, and it's important to choose one that meets your family's needs. Certain co-sleepers are more expensive and have more features. Others are more budget friendly. However, safety must be the primary consideration no matter the model you choose to purchase. Research certifications, reviews and safety concerns for every model you are considering.

Newborns feel most secure in small spaces, and the womb-like nature of co-sleepers or bassinets can aid them in sleeping better and form a strong bond with their parents.
