Choosing a Large Bedside Cot

Bedside cots, also known as bassinets and co-sleepers, are designed to allow parents to sleep close to their infants at night without the danger of SIDS. They are recommended for up to 6 months, when your baby is old enough to be moved to a cot.

Mehack Mehack, an MFM home tester, was awed by the fact that this model features an integrated bassinet that can be used around the home. It also comes with the ability to rock manually. It was also easy to put together and came in its own bag for easy storage.

Size

Cots are smaller than cots. They can also be converted into toddler beds, while they are typically used up to three years old. There are two sizes of wooden cots, large and standard that can be transformed into a toddler bed or a cot. If you want your child (or children) to be capable of sleeping in a bigger cot, it's an excellent idea to pick the larger one.

Jasmine, an MFM mother who tested the product at home, was pleased that it was slightly larger than the typical Moses' basket but still not too big for the baby's room. She says it's easy to get her baby in and out for night feeding or soothing and that the quality is great in comparison to other cots she's seen that are flimsy.

Emily who is a home tester, loves the flexibility of the Maxi-Cosi lora which is a lift-off, mobile bassinet. It also is a rock. It also comes with a reflux incline and a machine washable liner that is breathable. It was also shortlisted in 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 many international or European brands. This means you do not need to purchase a new mattress every time your baby grows. It will require a specific bedding set (60x120cm). Find the ideal mattress for your cot here.

Height

When you are choosing a cot for your bed choose one that can be raised to a level that is comfortable for you to feed your the baby. It must also be lowered to a level that is not in the way so that you can pull your baby towards you to feed them at night or soothe him. This feature is especially helpful in the event of recovering from an operation such as a C-section. The Next2me cot and the Tutti Bambini can be adjusted to an maximum height of 58cm, while the Snuzpod 3 can go up to 63cm and the Knuma Hutch to 70cm.

Another thing to think about is how low you want the base of your cot to be. Some moms find it is easier to lift their babies from standard Moses baskets when the base is situated at the lowest level and others prefer a higher level to give them more stability. The Joie Roomie Glide is a popular choice and one of our mum testers saying that it has an easy-to-use collapsible side that you can push down with the click of a button.

Remember that a bedside or bassinet should not be used until your baby can hold their head up without assistance, usually at about 6 months. This is because of the danger of inhaling suffocation. It's also important to note that if you choose a bedside sleeper or bassinet that you can convert into a cot, you will need to begin removing the sides once your child is ready for this to ensure that they don't climb out or fall out of bed.

Design

There are a variety of styles of bedside crib that range from basic to lavish. Some of the most extravagant options include features like an integrated light, a soothing center that plays music and sounds and comes with two levels that help to soothe your baby back to sleep, or the swivelling footrest, which makes it easier for you to reach your child when you need to feed them. There are also models that can be converted to a cot bed or toddler bed (or both) ideal for when your child is ready to move to a bigger bed.

The Tutti Bambini CoZee Air, for example, won Bronze at the 2021 Mother and Baby Awards Best Cot, Moses Basket or Crib category. It features a swivelling bottom that lets you take your baby to the crib and transfer them to the opposite side of the crib without getting out of the bed. This makes it ideal for new mothers who are recovering from Caesarean or need to stay in bed for longer periods of time. MFM mom home tester Jasmine was awed by this feature, stating that it was simple to use and made her baby much more manageable especially after a c-section.

Chicco Next2me Magic is another alternative. It won Gold in the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards to be the Best Cot, Moses Basket or Crib and has a machine-washable interior, reflux incline, and rocking feature. It's bigger than other bedside cribs that we've tested, however it folds up into its travel bag, making it a small size when not in use.

Leya, MFM mum home tester, also praised the bedside crib's functionality. She said it was designed to be used by parents and babies. 'It has an excellent design that is incredibly simple to operate and is extremely durable. She said that the bassinet's 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, especially for new mums 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 baby to feed or comfort him or her nappy. This makes it perfect for mothers who are recovering from a c-section. Look for a design that lets you lower one side with the press of a button. This way, you can easily lift your baby up without getting out of bed. This is essential, especially when your baby grows and becomes more mobile. It is also important to not add anything to the cot that increases the chance of suffocation or injury, like pillows and duvets. These could cause babies to become overheated.

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

In its NPR the CPSC considered the possibility of introducing additional requirements to bedside sleepers. For example, these products would have to meet the minimum height requirements for bassinets or at the very least, the maximum height requirements for the rails that are lowered. The CPSC decided, however, that these requirements were not feasible or effective in reducing number of instances in which infants are entrapped by the foldable bedside crib rail as well as an adult bed.

A majority of the incidents mentioned in the NPR included multi-use bedside beds which can be converted to different types of furniture, like play yards or bassinets. A number of commenters suggested that the CPSC include in the proposed rule a different provision for multi-use bedside sleepers that would enable them to meet the minimum side-height requirements for bassinets using an attachment that can be permanently connected or disconnected when the product is not being used as a bassinet.

The CPSC is examining these and other comments that were received in response to its NPR on bedside sleepers. The Commission will be examining these comments when deciding on the final rule which is expected to be released in November of 2021.
