bedside crib vs cot (kingranks.com)

A bedside crib, also known as a cosleeper, allows your baby sleep close to you during the night. It's important that you adhere to the official safe sleeping guidelines from the NHS and Lullaby Trust.

Our mum testers love the SnuzPod's breastfeeding-friendly drop side, 30-second open and fold mechanism and reflux incline function. It's also easy to move around thanks its slim frame.

Safety

Bedside cribs are a great option for families who co-sleep. NHS Safe Sleep advises parents to select a separate area for their infant, and avoid sharing a mattress, in order to reduce the chance of suffocation or overheating.

When selecting a bedside crib it is essential to check that the product meets European safety standards and conforms to Lullaby Trust codes for safe sleep, to ensure your child is sleeping in a secure and safe environment. Bedside cribs with adjustable height settings can be matched to the parent's bed frame, reducing the risk of gaps in which babies may be trapped. The cribs are equipped with an even, firm mattress that is designed to encourage healthy sleep habits.

Most bedside cribs have a panel that can be moved so that you can be able to see your baby in the night. This lets you easily soothe, feed, and supervise your child without leaving the bed. This is especially beneficial for mothers who are recovering from csection births or for those with limited mobility. Some models, like the SnuzPod4, even offer an incline feature for reflux babies suffering from reflux or digestive issues.

A lower panel can also lower the risk of your baby falling over the edge of the bed. Many of these panels have mesh sides to prevent duvets and pillows from falling into the crib. This is crucial to reduce the risk of SIDS. Babies who roll off their backs are more likely to suffocate.

It is advised to keep any dummy or soft toys away from the crib as they could be a hazard to suffocate. To ensure that your baby is safe and secure, make sure that the crib mattress is breathable and you check it regularly for any gaps or loose sheets. When your baby is able to sit up or stand (typically at around 6 months) they will require a cot, or another sleeping arrangement that is suitable. If you are concerned about this transition, it's worthwhile to talk to your GP or health professional.

Comfort

The most suitable cribs for wooden bedside cot use provide a secure and comfortable environment to sleep your baby. They are designed to sit close to your bed, so you can look after your baby without having to leave your bed. This gives you the chance to bond with your baby in the beginning months. This sense of security can help you establish a positive bedtime routine and improve the quality of sleep for your baby.

You should keep your child in a crib next to the bed until they reach 6 months or can stand up by themselves. At this point, it is time to change to a traditional cot. The bedside crib is likely to be suitable for your child until the age of 6 months, but it's important to check the specific specifications of the product.

When you are choosing a bedside baby sleeper cot, ensure that it meets EN 1130 safety standards. It must be able to work with your current bed (most clip onto standard bed frames, but you must double-check the exact dimensions). Also, make sure that the crib has a firm and flat mattress that is breathable - this is vital to the health of your baby.

Our mum testers who are experts have been talking about the Chicco Next2me Side Sleeping Crib that has a height-adjustable base and can be used as a separate crib or affixed to your bed. It is lightweight and easy to put together. It also provides great value for money. Silvercross Voyager is another of our favourites. Our testers appreciate its flexibility, breathable mattresses and the reflux incline feature.

Space

A bedside crib is a sleep space that can be secured to the sides of your bed which allows you to keep your baby close throughout the night without the danger of co-sleeping (which is not recommended by The Lullaby Trust and NHS). Recent years have seen an increase in their popularity with mothers who want to bond with their baby while remaining safe.

Some come with a lowering screen which you can use to ensure safe viewing and touching of your baby. Some allow you to keep the panel in place in the night so that you can feed and monitor your child without anxiety. Some models also come with a reflux incline feature, which was a favorite among many of our testers for its ability to reduce discomfort and assist digestion for babies suffering from reflux or wind.

A lot of cribs for bedside have adjustable height settings too that allow you to set them at the same level as your mattress, ensuring there's no gap that could let your baby climb or slip out. This is a big benefit for those recovering from C-sections since it can be a challenge to get into and out of bed as your body heals.

The lower sides offer privacy and are ideal for new parents worried about sharing their room with a baby. It is crucial to remember that even if you choose to sleep with your baby in a crib or cot near your bed, it's recommended to follow guidelines for safe sleeping and avoid sharing your bed.

Before buying, you'll need to check whether your crib for bedside is compatible with your bed frame. Some cribs clip onto bedsteads, while others are better suited to divan beds. Don't forget to get a suitable mattress for your new crib which is typically sold separately to the crib itself and should comply with the latest BS EN 1130:2019 safety requirements.

Bedside cribs can be transformed into toddler beds. This is a great option for parents who don't require an additional cot. SnuzPod4 has a sleek frame that can be tucked away in the corner of any bedroom and provides ample space for your child to sleep comfortably. It is also easy to assemble, and comes with a convenient bag for travel.

Convenience

One of the great things about a crib for bed is that it's easy to lift your baby bedside cot into and out of bed for nighttime feeds, cuddles and soothing to sleep. A majority of cribs have a side panel that can be set to a lower level so that you can communicate with your baby without disturbing them. Some cribs have the side panel open all the time. This is ideal for parents who have had C-sections who want to keep their child close.

Some cribs come with tilt options, which can aid in reducing reflux and colic. It is important to note that the tilting of the crib should only be done by parents who are aware of the medical needs of their child and their history.

Another aspect to consider is how easy the crib is to clean, and whether it can be washed by machine or you need to wash it by hand it. Some cribs come with waterproof covers to protect against leaky nappies, baby sick and dribbles. Some cribs come with bags for storage, making them perfect for traveling in case you need to take your baby along.

It is also important to think about the weight of the crib be, and if it's easy to move it from one room to the next. Our 2021 Mother & Baby awards mum tester Jasmine said that the Red Kite Cozysleep next to the crib as "just the right size and light enough to be able to move around your house. It folds flat, and comes with a bag for trips to visit grandparents.

We recommend you go through our reviews and ratings to ensure you choose the right model for you and your baby. And remember that although a crib might look lovely and elegant, it's important to keep in mind that your baby's going to grow out of its small size. You'll need to get your baby to a cot before they grow out of the crib.
