Newborn Push Chair - Newborns Need to Lay Flat

A newborn pram, travel system or pushchair is the best option for babies who have to lay flat. These are outfitted with cocoons, a soft fabric carrycot or a seat that can be used to allow the baby to lie flat from the moment of birth.

These pushchairs are also light and fold using just one hand, making them ideal for busy mothers. Babies can switch to a pushchair from around 6 months, once they are strong enough.

Sturdy

Newborns must lay flat, so you'll need a pram or pushchair that has the ability to fully recline. Travel systems can be used to transfer your infant from the car into the pushchair while they're asleep. Some pushchairs are able to be used from the time of birth. Check the specifications to determine if they come with a built-in infant car seat or carrycot.

Some pushchairs fold to make them smaller and light. This is helpful if you have to move the pushchair into and out of a public transport vehicle or if there is only a small space at home. Be sure to verify the weight (with and without a carrycot or seat attached) before purchasing as some may be very heavy.

When choosing a new pushchair, choose a frame that is sturdy and robust. It is also important to consider the terrain on which you will be using it. Some models feature optimised treads on tyres as well as soft suspension, so they'll be able to handle any terrain. They fold up, and are free-standing for easy storage.

The canopy will shield your baby against the harsh sun's rays and will help to stop overheating. This is important for newborns. Some pushchairs come with a sunshade built-in, but if yours doesn't, you can find many different sunshades that are standalone and SPF/UPF canopy in the accessories.

Some infant pushchairs come with the option of a footmuff. It's an additional layer of warmth that protects your baby from cold. The majority of brands offer them as accessories.
