Is a large bedside cot Crib Co Sleeper Right For Your Baby?
A bedside crib co sleeper is a fantastic option if you want your baby close by for fuss-free nighttime feeding. They're a safer alternative to traditional Moses baskets, following official safe sleeping guidance from the Lullaby Trust and NHS.
Home test subjects love that the crib can rotate 360 degrees to make it easy to access and comes with an adjustable mattress to match your bed. It is also easy to fold up and comes with a travel bag.
Safety
Bedside cribs are a great option to keep baby close by throughout the night without putting them at risk of suffocation or overheating. They are attached to the side of your bed, so you can easily reach out to soothe or feed your infant during the night, and they're suitable for mothers who are recovering from the c-section. But there's a lot to think about before purchasing one.
When shopping for a bedside crib make sure you're choosing an item that is in line with current safety standards. A number of cribs from the past have been recalled due to the fact that they let children slide through gaps between the mattress and the sides of the crib or they pose a risk of strangulation or entrapment. Make sure the crib you are considering is compliant with the new BS EN 1130:2019 safety requirement, which was introduced in November of 2020.
The new rules prohibit cribs for bedside use from having sides that completely drop down. Instead, many models come with half-height walls that allow your baby to sleep next to your bed but offer a more secure barrier by sinking a bit lower than the mattress. All of the models on our list conform to these new requirements, including the Graco Pack 'n Play on the Go and the Chicco Lullago both of which were shortlisted in the Mother&Baby Awards 2017.
It's also worth checking that the crib you're looking at is secure enough to be attached to your bed and is secured properly. This is especially important if you intend to use the crib with a sidecar sleeping system, such as the Graco Pack 'n Play On The Go or the Graco BassiNest Premiere which were both shortlisted for the Mother&Baby Awards.
It's also important to remember that the crib is intended for sleeping purposes and should not be used with any bedding or other accessories, like pillows, blankets toys, or stuffed animals. Official safe sleep advice from the Lullaby Trust and the AAP is that babies should sleep in their own sleeping space, in their own crib or cot and not on an adult bed or other mattress or soft furnishings.
Comfort
A crib for bedside use allows you to keep your child safe at night, without the danger that they might be shared with other babies. This can increase the risk of SIDS. It also means that you can easily reach over and comfort your baby in the middle of the night without having to get out of bed. It's a good alternative to a Moses Basket or infant bassinet that is safe, practical, and comfortable for your infant baby and babies until 6 months of age.
The top models offer good airflow and slats that are open and wide enough to allow air flow. You can also roll up and down the window or door as you need. It is simple to change the diaper of your baby or nurse them, or examine their sleep at the end of the night. Some models also come with a swaddle sack to help you to have a secure sleep routine.
You'll want a mattress that is lightweight and compact when folded so it's easy to move around your home or to take with you on your travels. The mattress cover must be removable and washable, making it easy to clean. The pocket at one end can be used to store spare diapers and baby clothes.
Some cribs with a bed come with a mattress and others you need to purchase separately. Ensure that the mattress is designed for your specific model and is firm, flat and airy. Avoid second-hand mattresses since they increase the risk of SIDS.
Find a crib that can be adjusted to fit the bed's height. A bedside crib that can be adjusted in height could be very beneficial to you, particularly when you are recovering from a C-section.
Some models include useful extras, like a tummy-tilt for reflux or a detachable moses basket which can later be used as a playpen for toddlers. Other extras to consider are whether the crib rock and folds down so that it can lie flat for storage or comes with a travel bag. Look at the cost and find out what bedding is included with the crib. It is common to buy separate sheets for your child's bedside cot.
Style
New moms appreciate the convenience of bedside cribs, which allow them to monitor baby during night feedings and diaper changes without getting out of bed. They also aid in helping babies recover from a C-section or other medical condition like colic or reflux.
Choosing the right bedside crib for your child is based on your requirements and your lifestyle. Apart from the obvious safety features, consider whether you'd like to be able to lift your baby out of the crib to feed them or calm them and if it includes additional features like the ability to rock. Consider the height and dimensions of your bed to ensure that any crib you choose will be able to fit comfortably.
Bedside cribs are less expensive than Moses Baskets, however they still have amazing features, like breathable mesh and see through sides, incline options for reflux and an adjustable height. Our favourite is the Tutti Bambini CoZee, which combines style with practicality to make the perfect sleeper. It's available in three colours and features stylish oak legs, so it will fit right into your bedroom. It's also easy to put together and fold and comes with a handy travel cot bedside crib bag for trips to visit the grandparents.
Some cribs come with side panels that can be removed during the day, allowing you to hold your baby and sleep safely and then raised at night. The Arm's Reach Clear-Vue Co-Sleeper, for instance, has this feature, but one of our MFM home test participants found it difficult to use at first.
You should ensure that the bedding you choose for a crib beside a bedside is fitted properly. There shouldn't be gaps or other openings that could lead to the suffocation. This is why a lot of cribs come with mattresses that are fitted, but sheets that are suitable for use at most retailers. It's a good idea to avoid second-hand mattresses as they are prone to wear and deteriorate over time, increasing the risk of SIDS.
Bedside cribs are also lighter and more portable than Moses baskets. This makes them more convenient to move from room to room, or to take on trips on. The most effective bedside cribs are small enough to fit into bags, so you can easily take them with you on short trips.
Convenience
bedside crib travel cribs are a great option for parents and newborns because they allow you to watch your baby at night without the fear of them rolling off your mattress or becoming suffocated. It is important to remember that the Lullaby Trust, NHS and other official sleep guidelines recommend you only co-sleep your baby with them for the first six months with a separate mattress in the same space to minimize the risk of SIDS.
Based on the model you pick the bedside crib could include features that make it more practical. For example, one of the top-rated models from our MFM home tests swivels and adjusts height, making it easy for you to reach into the crib and take your baby. This model has a sidewall that dips down. One MFM home tester said that this gave her 'easy access" to soothe their child.
Some models include additional features for example, a rocking bedside crib function (useful for fussy babies) or incline settings to help with reflux. These are useful to use if your baby is suffering from a condition that causes reflux, but be aware that your baby should sleep on a flat and firm mattress to avoid suffocation or overheating.
Think about how easy it is be to clean the model. Make sure the fabric is machine washable and if it comes with a mattress protector with waterproof properties that will shield you from leaky nappies, baby sick or dribbles. Some cribs come with a fitted sheet that makes it easier to wash and change.
Consider the ease of assembly and compactness when folded. Check if it's easy to connect to your bed, and if it has a bag to use to take it with you on your travels. Check if the product comes with additional features, such as a tummy tilt or the possibility of converting it into the form of a Moses basket for older children. This can be helpful when travelling.
