Choosing a Large bedside crib or cot Cot
Bedside cots (also called co-sleepers or bassinets) are designed to allow parents to snuggle with their infant at night without risk of SIDS. However they are not recommended for use up to 6 months when your baby will be required to move into a cot, or a moses basket.
MFM home tester Mehack loved that this model has an adjustable bassinet that you can use in the home and the ability to rock manually. It was also simple to put together and came with its own travel bag for convenient storage.
Size
Cots and cot beds vary in terms of size, with cots being smaller than cot beds. Cots can also be transformed into toddler beds. However they are typically used for children up to the age of three. There are two sizes of wooden cots, large and standard, which can be transformed into a toddler bed or a cot. If you wish for your child (or children) to be capable of sleeping in the larger cot, it's a good idea to pick the larger one.
Jasmine, a MFM mother who tested the product at home, liked that it was slightly larger than a Moses' basket but still not too big for her baby’s room. It's easy to lift her baby in and out for night feeding or soothing, and that the quality is excellent, compared with many she's seen that are flimsy.
Emily who is a home tester, is awed by the flexibility of the Maxi-Cosi lora which is a lift-off, portable bassinet. It also rocks. It also comes with an option for inclining the reflux and a machine-washable breathable liner. And it was shortlisted in the 2021 Mother&Baby awards for best bedside cot Cot, Crib or Moses Basket. Unlike some International or European cot brands The Lora can be fitted with South African cot mattresses so you don't have to buy an entirely new mattress each time your baby grows. It will require a specific bedding set (60x120cm). You can find the right mattress for your cot here.
Height
When you are choosing a cot for your bed be sure to choose one that can be raised up to a level that is comfortable for you when feeding the baby. It should also be able to be lowered away from the way, so that you can pull your child towards you to feed them at night or to soothe him. This feature is particularly helpful in the event of recovering from a C-section. The Next2me cot and the Tutti Bambini can be adjusted to a maximum height of 58cm while the Snuzpod 3 can go up to 63cm and the Knuma Hutch can be adjusted 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 moms find it easier to get their babies out of standard Moses baskets at the lowest height, others prefer a higher base to give them more stability. One of our mom testers mentioned that the Joie Roomie Glide was a popular choice. It has an easily collapsible side that you can press at the push of the button.
Remember that a foldable bedside crib or bassinet should only be used until your baby can hold their head up without assistance generally around 6 months. This is due to the risk of suffocation. It is also important to be aware that when your child is old enough to turn a bassinet/bedside baby bed sleeping system into a cot, they must take the sides off once they are ready to do this. This will stop them from climbing out or falling out of bed.
Design
There are many different styles of cribs that are bedside, ranging from basic to extravagant. The more expensive options could include features such as a built-in night light or a soothing center which plays music and sounds and has two levels of vibration to help soothe baby back to sleep, or a swivelling base that allows you to easily reach your baby for feedings. Some models can be transformed into the toddler bed or cot bed (or both) when your child is ready to go to their own bed.
The Tutti Bambini CoZee Air For instance, won Bronze at the 2021 Mother and Baby Awards Best Cot, Moses Basket or Crib category. It is a swivelling base that allows you to take your baby to the crib and move them to the opposite side of the crib without getting out of the bed. This is perfect for new mums recovering from Caesareans or those who have to remain in bed for long periods of time. MFM mum home tester Jasmine was awed by this feature, stating that it was simple to use and made reaching her baby much more manageable especially after a c-section.
Another alternative is the Chicco Next2me Magic, which won Gold at the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards for the category of Best Cot, Crib or Moses Basket and includes an easy-to-clean liner, reflux incline and rocking function. It's a bit bigger than some of the other cribs that we've tried, but it folds flat into its bag for travel, so it is relatively compact when not in use.
Leya, MFM mum home tester, also appreciated the bedside crib's function. She claimed that it was designed for parents and infants. It is easy to move and super-sturdy. She said that the bassinet's swivelling base was a great idea because it allowed you to move it from side to side. One of its sides could be lowered to facilitate access, especially for new mums recovering from C-sections.
Safety
A large bedside cot - Https://bailcloset73.bravejournal.net -'s main security characteristic is that it is able to be adjusted or moved so that parents can reach their child to feed or comfort them, or change his or his or her nappy. This means that it's ideal for new mothers who may still be recovering from a C-section. Choose a model that allows you to lower one side at the push of a button. This way, you can easily lift your baby up without getting out of bed. This is particularly crucial as your baby grows older and more mobile. Beware of items that could increase the chance of suffocation or injury, like duvets and pillows which could cause your baby to become overheated.
The NPR of the CPSC's NPR included 24 incidents that were attributed to problems with the product, such as gaps between the bedside crib and cot sleeper and the adult bed (12 incidents) and enclosed openings with fabric sides (11 incidents) and consumer misassembly or missing parts (6 incidents) and other miscellaneous product-related issues (9 incidents).
In its NPR the CPSC looked into the possibility of adding more requirements to bedside sleepers. For instance they would need to meet the minimum side height requirements for bassinets, or at least the maximum height requirements for the rails that are lowered. The CPSC determined, however, that these requirements were not practical or effective in reducing number of incidents where infants are entrapped by the bedside rail and an adult bed.
A majority of the incidents mentioned in the NPR included multi-use bedside beds that can be transformed into other types of equipment, like play yards or bassinets. A number of commenters suggested that the CPSC include in the proposed rule an alternative provision for multi-use bedside sleepers that would enable them to meet the minimum side-height requirements for bassinets by using an attachment that is removable and can be permanently connected or disconnected when the product is not being used as an actual bassinet.
The CPSC is considering these and other comments that were received in response to its NPR regarding bedside sleepers. The Commission will be examining these comments when it votes on the final rule which is expected to be released in November of 2021.
