Choosing a Large Bedside Cot

Bedside cots, also referred to as co-sleepers and large bedside cot bassinets, are designed to allow parents to sleep close to their children at night without the risk of SIDS. However they are not recommended for use up to 6 months, when your baby is required to move into a cot or a moses basket.

MFM home tester Mehack loved the fact that this model comes with a bassinet that can be lifted off to use around the house and the ability to rock manually. It was easy to set up and even came with a travel bedside crib bag.

Size

Cots are smaller than cots. They are less than. They also can be converted into toddler beds, while the cot beds are typically used for up to three years. old. If you're looking for a wooden cot, there are typically two sizes to choose from - standard and large - both of which can be converted into a cot bed/toddler bed. If you wish for your child (or children) to be capable of sleeping in a bigger cot, it's an excellent idea to choose the larger one.

MFM mother home tester Jasmine loved that the bedside cot was slightly larger than a Moses basket, but not too large for her baby's room. She says it's easy to carry her child into and out of the cot for nighttime feeding or soothing, and the quality is top-notch in comparison to other cots she's encountered that feel cheap and flimsy.

Emily who is a home tester, loves the versatility of the Maxi-Cosi lora which is a portable, lift-off bassinet. It also rocks. It also comes with an option for inclining the reflux and a machine-washable liner that breathes. It was also shortlisted for the 2021 Mother&Baby awards for the Best Cot Crib, Crib, or Moses Basket. The Lora is compatible with a South African cot mattress unlike other international or European brands. This means you don't have to purchase a brand new mattress when your baby grows. However, it will require an exclusive bedding set (60x120cm). Here's the perfect mattress for your cot.

Height

When selecting a bedside crib, choose one that can be adjusted to a suitable height for you. It should also be able to be lowered to a level that is not in the way so you can raise your baby to feed them at night or soothe him. This feature is especially useful when you are recovering from a C Section. For example, the Next2me and Tutti Bambini cots can be adjusted to the height of 58cm. the Snuzpod 3 goes up to 63cm, and the Knuma Huddle up to 70cm.

Another thing to consider is the height you would like to set for the base of your cot to be. Some moms find it is easier to lift their children from their standard Moses baskets when the base is at the lowest level and others prefer a higher level to give them more stability. One of our mom testers said that the Joie Roomie Glide was a popular option. It is an easy-to-fold side that you can push at the touch one button.

Be aware that a bedside or bassinet is only suitable until your baby can hold their head up without assistance generally around 6 months. This is due to the possibility of being suffocated. It is also important to be aware that if your child is old enough to be able to convert a bassinet/bedside sleeping system into a cot, you will have to remove the sides when they are able to do this. This will prevent them from getting out or falling out of the bed.

Design

There are a variety of styles of cribs for twin bedside cot use, ranging from simple to luxurious. The more luxurious options may include features such as a built-in nightlight and a calming centre which plays music and sounds and has two levels of vibrating to help soothe your baby to sleep, or a swivelling base that allows you to reach your baby for feedings. Some models can be converted into an infant bed or cot bed (or both) when your child is ready to go to their own bed.

The Tutti Bambini CoZee Air For instance was awarded Bronze at the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards in the best bedside cots Cot Moses Basket or Crib category. It features a swivelling bottom that allows you to take your baby to the crib and transfer them to the other side of the crib without getting out of the bed. This is great for new mums recovering from Caesareans or who have to stay in bed for extended periods. MFM mom home tester Jasmine was awed by this feature, saying it was easy to use and made reaching her baby easier particularly after her c-section.

Another option is the Chicco Next2me Magic, which has won Gold at the 2021 Mother&Baby Award in the category of the Best Cot, Crib or Moses Basket. It also includes an easy-to-clean liner, reflux incline and rocking function. It's bigger than other cribs for bed that we tested, but it folds up into its travel cot bedside crib bag to make it compact when not in use.

Leya, large bedside cot MFM mum home tester, also appreciated the bedside crib's function. She claimed that it was designed to be used by parents and infants. It is lightweight and easy to move. Its swivelling base is brilliant because it allows you to move the bassinet from side to side and one of its sides can be lowered down to facilitate access - particularly for new mums who are recovering from their C-sections,' she added.

Safety

A large bedside cot (Fewpal wrote)'s main security characteristic is that it can be easily adjusted or moved so that parents can reach their child to feed or comfort him or their diaper. This is why it's perfect for mothers who still be recovering from a C-section. You should choose a design which lets you lower the side of the bed by pressing a button. This will allow you to lift your child without getting out of bed. This is especially important as your baby grows older and becomes more mobile. You'll also want to avoid adding anything to the crib that could increase the chance of suffocation or injury, like duvets and pillows, which can cause babies to overheat.

The CPSC's NPR included 24 incidents that were attributed to product issues like gaps between the bedside sleeper and the adult bed (12 incidents); fabric-sided enclosed openings (11 incidents); consumer misassembly or missing parts (6 incidents) and miscellaneous other product-related issues (9 incidents).

In its NPR the CPSC considered the possibility of introducing additional requirements to bedside sleepers. For instance the products 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 found, however that these requirements were not efficient or effective in reducing amount of instances where infants are trapped between a bedside rail and an adult bed.

A majority of the incidents reported in the NPR included bedside sleepers with multiple uses that could be converted into other modes such as bassinets and play yards. Many commenters suggested that CPSC include in the proposed rule an alternative provision for multi-use bedside beds to allow them to meet the minimum side-height requirement of bassinets using an attachment that is removable and can be permanently connected or removed when the product is not being used as a bassinet.

The CPSC is currently examining these and other comments received in response to its NPR regarding bedside cot reviews sleepers. The Commission will take into consideration these comments when deciding on the final rule which is expected to be published in the month of November 2021.
