Choosing Between a Baby Bedside Co Sleeper and a Bassinet

New parents have many options when it comes down to sleeping arrangements for their newborn. Some parents consider co-sleeping, which the AAP warns against due to the risk of suffocation. Others want to be capable of reaching their baby to change diapers or feeds during the night.

A baby bedside co sleeper is a great alternative to a bassinet or crib that attaches to the side of the parent's bed for safe, convenient access. MFM home testers praised the practical, stylish design of this choice.

Safety

A bedside co sleeper or a sidecar bassinet, is a safe baby sleep option that allows babies to sleep right next to their parents without putting them at risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. It's part of the rooming-in practice, which is used in hospitals to aid newborns form a bond with their parents while they are still learning to self-soothe. When choosing a sleep solution, parents need to consider the pros and cons of bedside co-sleepers and standard bassinets.

The most important aspect of a baby bedside co sleeper is safety. Choose models with sturdy frames, breathable materials and no loose parts that could pose an choking risk. Think about models that can be washed to make cleaning easy. Also, ensure that the sleeping surface is flat and firm, without any blankets or pillows, since this can reduce the chance of an accidental suffocation hazard.

The unit's access from the bed of the parents is another safety consideration. This will allow for feedings at night and easier monitoring of the baby's health during their sleep. Contrary to this, some standard bassinets are located far enough away from the parent's bed that they might require a step-up to get into the sleeping space.

Many parents also consider the proximity of the bassinet to their bed when choosing between a co-sleeper and bassinet. Some parents prefer co-sleeping because of the close physical connection it provides, while others are concerned about the risk of suffocation and roll-off associated with bed sharing. Some of the top-rated bedside crib travel sleepers, like the babybay bedside co-sleeper and the Snoo smart sleeper are designed to remove these concerns with the wood-slat design, which resembles the cribs in which infants were born, as well as an swaddle bag that stops them from moving around in their sleep.

Think about the Arm's reach Clear-Vue Cosleeper if you're unsure about the risks of co-sleeping. This bassinet-style co sleeper creates an environment that is safer for co-sleeping by connecting directly to the bed's side with a narrow barrier that lets you be able to see and reach your baby.

Comfort

No matter what type of sleeper you select it's crucial to ensure that your baby is able to sleep comfortably. It is essential to make sure that the crib is flat and firm with no gaps between your baby's mattress and the sleeping surface. Some co-sleepers are using soft mattresses and fluffy padding which can put your baby at risk of SIDS. We recommend using a mattress protector to avoid any tension.

Another aspect to consider is breathability. The top models we reviewed for this review, including the Babybay Bedside Sleeper and Snoo Smart Sleeper, come with breathable mesh sides that offer excellent ventilation, while keeping your newborn secure. A number of other models, such as the Baby Delight and HALO BassiNest Essentia, also have excellent airflow.

Another consideration is whether or not your sleeper includes a tilt feature which is beneficial for babies with reflux or digestive issues. Some of the best sleepers we've seen, like the HALO Swivel BassiNest Sleeper 3.0 have a slight tilt that could be beneficial to your baby, while reducing the chance of suffocation as well as falling.

While some parents may opt for a regular bassinet, a lot of parents prefer the bedside sleeper. These types of beds are attached directly to the parent's mattress which makes it simple to reach their baby for feedings or to snuggle in the middle of night. Bedside sleepers are also a possibility to use in the method of rooming-in, also known as co-sleeping. This helps reduce the chance of sudden infant death syndrome, and also encourages parents and infants to bond.

In the end, it's up to each family to decide what is right for them. However, we hope this guide has been useful as you search for the ideal baby large bedside cot sleeper for your infant. To avoid any potential risks, whether you opt for a bassinet or a bedside co-sleeper, be sure you follow the AAP's safe sleeping guidelines. Good luck!
