bedside co sleeper cot Cot Bed

A bedside crib and cot crib, also known as a bassinet, or side sleeper, is attached to a parent's bed and allows safe cosleeping. It allows you to easily reach your baby's bed for feeding and comforting at night, without disturbing your own sleep.

It is essential that the crib is securely attached and regularly checked for any gaps that could create an suffocation threat. Some cribs are also convertible with conversion kits that convert them into standalone cribs as your baby grows.

Safety

A bedside crib bed is similar to a baby bassinet, but it attaches to your mattress instead of being placed on the floor. They're very popular with parents who want their child to be close enough for feeding, comforting and even for night-time diaper changes. They're also an essential part of safe cosleeping (also known as rooming-in) and help reduce the risk of SIDS.

If you opt for a sliding bed or a four-in-one bedside sleeper, you'll require a mattress that fits in the cot bed comfortably. Be sure that it doesn't slump or bulge, and that it complies with safety standards, including the Lullaby Trust's guidelines. If you're buying a secondhand crib mattress, ensure that it's clean and free of cracks or tears and isn't brimming with threads that your child could become entangled in.

The close proximity of a crib to the bed allows mothers to respond to their newborns need during the night, including feeding them with bottles or breastfeeding, and helping them maintain their milk supply. Also, they can feed their babies without having to get up or out of their bed. This promotes healthy sleep habits for both parents and infants.

Most bedside cot beds have mesh that's securely fixed to the sides of the cot to minimize the possibility of a child getting caught or trapped in the gaps. Make sure to regularly inspect the mesh to find tears or loose threads that could catch or entangle the baby's clothing. Also, make sure there aren't any other hazards, such as handles or bars that protrude that could encourage your child to climb out of the bed. Likewise, look for any parts made of plastic that could be hot to the touch, and avoid sharp edges or splinters.

Convenience

You can keep your baby close to you so that you can respond to their needs at any point during the night without leaving your bed. This closeness makes it simpler to feed or change your baby once they wake up. It can be helpful in establishing a breastfeeding bond.

This kind of infant sleep solution is also referred to as a sidecar sleeper or bedside bassinet. It's a form of safe co-sleeping that lowers the risks associated with sudden death syndrome (SIDS). It allows newborns to rest close to their parents which is a wonderful method for mothers to build the bond of breastfeeding and also help them get more rest during the first few months following birth.

Most models have an adjustable or drop-down side that lets you take the baby out of the crib without having to get out of your bed, making it easy to take care of the needs of your baby during the night. Some models even have a manual rocking function that can be beneficial for resettling babies who are suffering from reflux. They are usually smaller than a moses basket or a standard cot, so they are smaller and take up less space.

Some beds come with an area for storage underneath. This is a great spot to store blankets and nappy. It's also a good storage area for toys and other baby-related items. Some are convertible, which means they can be transformed from a side-sleeper to a full-sized bed or toddler bed once your child gets older.

Home tester and MFM mother Jasmine describes the MoMi SMART BED as "a fantastic option to have for your little one," saying it's not too large or bulky and won't take up too much space in the bedroom. She also loved the fact that it has two sleeping heights so that you can adjust it based on your baby's age.

Styles

Bedside cots, also known as bassinets in style, attach to your bed. They allow you to lower the side of your crib so that it's easily accessible during the night for feeding or soothing. These cots are also ideal for mothers recovering from a c-section, as they don't require you to stand up to reach your child. Find cot beds that are compatible with the frame you prefer and securely attach to the mattress of the parent. Some models also have an adjustable 4th wall that can be dropped down when not in use, to keep your baby safe and out of harm's way.

These are generally more expensive than a cot or a moses basket however, you can find them to suit all budgets by doing some online shopping. You'll also require a baby-safe crib mattress, as well as a soft and comfortable bedding set. They can be bought on the internet, along with additional items like a baby teether or blanket.
