Bedside Cot 6 Months Plus
Bedside sleepers let you keep your baby in the same space with you, without the risks of bed-sharing. They're also a great option for newborns.
Find models with an adjustable height which will fit perfectly on the majority of bed frames. Also, look for breathable fabrics that are easy to clean.
Safety
A bedside cot can be described as an upholstered bassinet that is attached to the side of your bed to ensure safe co-sleeping. You can use it to raise your baby towards you at night for feeding, soothing or comforting and it's also a great option if you have the need for a C-section. It's different from a Moses basket or cot due to the fact that it has high sides so your baby can't be pushed out. Some models have a tilt function which can help babies with reflux and colic. They are also slightly bigger than Moses baskets which makes them easier to move from room to room.
The NHS and The Lullaby Trust, a safe sleep charity, recommend that infants be placed in a bassinet or cot in same room with their parents. They should not be in your bed. This is because sharing a bed increases the chance of suffocation and overheating. Bedside cribs permit your baby to sleep with you however, in a secure and private space.
When selecting a crib that is bedside ensure that it meets the most recent safety standards (it should be BS EN 1130:2019) and does not have any gaps or parts that could cause your baby to be trapped. Also, look for a mattress that is solid and flat. A sagging or too soft mattress can increase your baby's risk of SIDS, so choose for a new one rather than second-hand.
Finally, you should look for bedding that is fitted and free of loose blankets or pillows. Pillows are a suffocation risk and duvets can get stuck on the baby's face. Use a fitted sheet but make sure that it is properly fitted.
