Choosing a Large Bedside Cot Bedside cots also referred to as bassinets and cosleepers are designed to allow parents to sleep close to their babies at night without the risk of SIDS However they are not suitable 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 was impressed that this model comes with an adjustable bassinet that you can use in the home and the ability to rock manually It was also easy to assemble and came in its own travel bag for easy storage Size Cots and cot beds vary in size with cots being smaller than cot beds They also can be converted into toddler beds whereas cot beds are generally only used until three years old old There are two sizes of wooden cots large 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 a bigger cot its an excellent idea to choose the larger one Jasmine an MFM mum who tested the product at home said she liked that it was slightly larger than the typical Moses basket but not too big for the babys room She says that it is easy to get the baby in and out of the cot for night feeds or for soothing and that the quality is superior to others she has seen that are less sturdy Emily is another home tester is awed by the flexibility of the MaxiCosi lora which is a liftoff mobile bassinet It

able to be lowered to the ground so that you can lift your baby up towards you for feedings at night or to soothe This feature is particularly useful if youre recovering from a Csection For example the Next2me and Tutti Bambini cots can be adjusted to an elevation of 58cm the Snuzpod 3 goes up to 63cm and the Knuma Huddle up to 70cm Another thing to think about is how low you want the base of your cot to be Some mums find that it is easier to lift their babies from their standard Moses baskets when the base is situated at the lowest level while some prefer a higher level to give them greater stability One of our mom testers stated that the Joie Roomie Glide was a popular choice It has a collapsible side you can press at the touch the button Remember that a bedside or bassinet is only suitable until your baby is able to hold their head without assistance generally approximately 6 months This is due to the possibility of inhaling suffocation It is also important to remember

the bedside cribs functionality She claimed that it was designed to be used by parents and children It is a fantastic design that is incredibly maneuverable and is extremely durable She said that the bassinets pivoting 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 for moms who are recovering from Csections Safety The main safety aspect of a large bedside cot is that it can be raised or lowered to enable parents to reach their baby when they need to feed comfort them or change their nappy This makes it ideal for mothers who are recovering from an Csection Choose a model that allows you to lower one side at the push of a button so you can easily lift your baby without having to get out of the bed This is important especially as your child grows and becomes more mobile Avoid adding anything that could increase the chance of injury or suffocation such as pillowcases and duvets which can cause your baby to become overheated The NPR of the CPSCs NPR included 24 incidents that were attributed to product issues such as gaps between the bedside sleeper and the adult bed 12 incidents fabricsided enclosed openings 11 incidents as well as consumer misassembly or missing components 6 incidents and miscellaneous other productrelated issues 9 incidents In its NPR the CPSC looked into the possibility of adding additional requirements to bedside sleepers For instance they would need to meet the minimum side height requirements for bassinets or at a minimum the maximum height requirements for the rails that are lowered However bedside cot used determined that these requirements are not feasible or effective to reduce the amount of instances in which infants were trapped between the bedside sleeper and the adult bed A majority of the incidents reported in the NPR included multiuse bedside sleepers that can be converted to other types of use such as play yards and bassinets A number of commenters suggested that the CPSC add an alternative option to the proposed rule for bedside sleepers with multiple uses that would allow them to meet the minimum side height requirements for bassinets using a removable attachment The attachment can be permanently fixed or removed when the product is not being used as a bassinet for babies The CPSC is examining these and other comments received in response to its NPR regarding bedside sleepers The Commission will consider these comments when deciding on the final rule that is expected to be published in November 2021
