Choosing a Large Bedside Cot
bedside cot mattress cots (also known as co-sleepers or bassinets) are designed to allow parents to rest with their baby at night without risk of SIDS. They are recommended for up to 6 months old, at which point your baby is old enough to move to an actual crib.
MFM home tester Mehack loved the fact that this model features a bassinet that can be lifted off to use throughout the house, as well as a manual rocking function. It was also simple to assemble and came in its own travel cot bedside crib bag for convenient storage.
Size
Cots and cot beds differ in size in size, with cots smaller than cot beds. Cots can also be converted into toddler beds. However they are typically intended for children who are the age of three. If you're opting for a wooden bedside cot cot, you'll find two sizes available both large and standard both of which can be converted into a toddler bed or cot bed. If you want your child (or children) to be comfortable sleeping in the larger cot, it's a good option to select the larger one.
MFM mum home test Jasmine was pleased that this bedside cot was slightly larger than the Moses basket but not too large for the space of her baby's. She says it's easy to lift her baby into and out of the cot for nighttime feeding or soothing and the quality is top-notch, compared with many she's encountered that feel cheap and flimsy.
Another home-based tester, Emily, likes how the Maxi-Cosi is a versatile product It's a bassinet that lifts off that you can move around the home, and it's a blast too. It also has an incline for 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 some international or European brands. This means that you do not need to purchase an entirely new mattress each time your baby grows. However, it does require a special bespoke bedding set (60x120cm). You can find the perfect mattress for your cot here.
Height
When choosing a crib for your bed make sure it can be adjusted to a comfortable height for you. It should also be able to be lowered down to allow you to lift your baby closer to you for night feeds or for soothing. This feature is particularly useful when you're recovering from a C-section. The Next2me Cot and Tutti Bambini can be adjusted to the 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. While some mums find it easier to lift their babies out of traditional Moses baskets when they are at the lowest height, others prefer an elevated base to give them more stability. The Joie Roomie Glide is a popular choice, with one of our mum testers saying that it is easy to use with a collapsible side that is easy to press down at the touch of the button.
Keep in mind that a bassinet/bedside sleeping device should not be used until your baby can hold their head up unaided, usually at around 6 months. This is due to the possibility of suffocation. 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 falling out or climbing out of the bed.
Design
There are many different styles of cribs for bedside use, ranging from simple to luxurious. The more luxurious options may include features such as an integrated night light and a calming centre which plays music and sounds and has two levels of vibrating to help soothe baby back to sleep, or the swivelling base which makes it easier to reach your baby for feedings. You may also find some models which can be made into a cot bed or toddler bed (or both), perfect when your child is ready to move to a bigger bed.
The Tutti Bambini CoZee Air, for example has won Bronze at the 2021 Mother and Baby Awards in the Best Cot Moses Basket or Crib category. It features a swivelling bottom that allows you to pick up your baby and transfer them to the other side of the crib without having to get out of bed. This is perfect for mothers who are recovering from Caesarean sections or who have to stay in bed for extended periods. MFM mom home tester Jasmine was awed by this feature, saying that it was simple to use and made her baby easier - especially after her c-section.
Chicco Next2me Magic is another option. It won Gold in the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards to be the best Cot, Moses Basket, or Crib. It has a machine-washable lining, reflux incline, and rocking feature. It's bigger than the other cribs we've tested, but it folds into its travel bag to make it compact when not in use.
Leya, MFM mum home tester also acknowledged the crib's usefulness. She claimed that it was designed to be used by parents and children. It is a fantastic design that is very maneuverable and is extremely durable. She also said that the bassinet's pivoting base was a great idea because it let you move it from side to side. One of its sides could be lowered to facilitate access for mothers who are recovering from C-sections.
Safety
A large bedside cot's main security feature is that it can easily be raised or lowered so parents can reach their child to feed or comfort them, or change his or their nappies. This is why it's perfect for new mothers who may still be recovering from a C-section. You should look for a design which lets you lower the side of the bed with a simple button press. This will allow you to easily lift your child up without having to get out of the bed. This is essential, especially as your child grows and becomes more mobile. You'll also want to be careful not to add anything to the crib that could increase the chance of suffocation or injury, including pillows and duvets. These could cause babies to become overheated.
The CPSC's NPR includes 24 incidents that are attributed to product-related issues that include gaps between a bedside sleeper (adult bed) and the bedside sleeper (12 incidents), fabric-sided enclosed openings (11) and consumer assembly errors (6 incidents).
In its NPR in its NPR, the CPSC examined the possibility of adding additional requirements for bedside sleepers, such as the requirement that these beds satisfy the minimum side height requirement for bassinets, or at least meet the maximum height requirement for the side rail. The CPSC found, however that these requirements weren't practical or effective in reducing the number of incidents where infants are entrapped by the bedside rail as well as an adult bed.
The majority of the incidents covered in the NPR included multi-use bedside beds which can be converted to 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 beds to enable them to meet the minimum side-height requirement of bassinets by using a removable attachment that can be permanently connected or disconnected when the item is not being used as an actual bassinet.
The CPSC is examining these and other comments received in response to its NPR regarding bedside sleeper cot sleepers. The Commission will consider these comments when deciding on the final rule, which is expected to be published in November 2021.
