Bedside Cosleeper

A bedside cosleeper can be described as a bassinet that attaches to the side of your adult bed. If you stick to the CSPC guidelines for sleeping areas for infants It's safe.

These guidelines are similar in many ways to crib bedding standards. You can learn more about these guidelines here. The most important aspects to consider when selecting the best bedside cot for newborn bedside sleeper are Safety, Comfort, and Convenience.

Safety

Many new parents and expecting mothers have chosen to cosleep which is also known as bed-sharing, as per the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendation that infants should be in the same room as their parents. The Academy states that room-sharing with a baby is more secure than sleeping in the same bed as a parent because it reduces the risk of Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SIDS). The AAP does not advocate bed-sharing however it does suggest that co-sleeping on separate sleeping surfaces is a great way to decrease the risk of SIDS. This is why the development of the bedside cosleeper was so important for many families.

A bedside cosleeper is a crib-like sleeper that can be attached to an adult bed frame. The bedside co sleeper cosleeper helps parents keep an eye on their baby and gives them the freedom to sleep in their own bed. The top cosleepers adhere to strict safety standards and are built with sturdy, high-quality materials. Be sure to look for the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA) stamp of approval, which demonstrates rigorous testing of the product and quality controls, to ensure your child's secure cosleeping experience.

The safety of a crib is dependent on several aspects. This includes how it's set up and secured onto the mattress of the parent. It is important that the bedside cosleeper is connected to the mattress of the parent in a way that does not create gaps and spaces, where an infant could become trapped. This could result in a suffocation risk. It is vital that the attachment system for a bedside sleeper be tested to ensure that it is able to withstand any forces that are imposed during use, such as the parent moving on and off the sleeper. The attachment system, or the corners on the bedside cosleeper must be tested against an upward force.

The voluntary standard for bedside sleepers includes by reference to the federal consumer product safety standard for bassinets and cradles (16 CFR part 1218) and includes requirements for the performance of enclosed openings with a fabric-side. The standard's mandatory requirements tackle the issue of neck and head imprisonment by requiring that after the application and release a 50-lb. The standard also states that after the release and application of 50-lb. It is not permitted to create a gap that is greater than 1.0 in. Read-only copies of the standard can be accessed at ASTM's online Reading Room.

Convenience

Many parents do not allow cosleeping because they fear suffocation or SIDS, or because it is a "Ferberization" that forces children to be in a room by themselves. However, anthropologists have observed for a long time that many mammals, primates and people from other cultures sleep often. This is because babies are soothed when they hear the voice of their mother, and may also learn to soothe themselves.

The best bedside cot for newborn bedside sleepers feature an innovative design that is attached to the side of any bed and can be swiveled for easy access for middle-of-the-night feedings or diaper changes. Look for one with adjustable feet that retract to accommodate different mattress heights and a large storage compartment to store all of your baby's needs.

Choose a bedside crib that will fit standard crib bedding, so it will be safe to use as your child grows. Consider a model that is convertible and can be used as a play yard, [Redirect-302] or a deeper bassinet. It will last for a long time.

Portability

Based on the size of your bedroom, a bedside sleeping system with wheels and/or a lightweight base could be easier to move around your home than one with an imposing wood frame or substantial base. The babybay bedside sleeper, HALO bassiNest essencetia, and Snoo Smart Sleeper are all movable. They come with adjustable feet that can be retracted to accommodate platform mattresses and legs that fold up to provide maximum access to the mattress; 100% mesh sidewalls to allow ventilation without fabric covering baby's nose or mouth.

The Arm's Reach Clear-Vue is another top choice that adjusts in 1" increments to fit in most adult beds and can also function as an portable bassinet. It also swivels, allowing easy access to your baby so you can comfort your baby, nurse or monitor her throughout the night.
