Bedside Cosleeper

A bedside cosleeper can be described as a bassinet that attaches to the side of your adult bed. As long as you adhere to the CSPC guidelines for infant sleeping spaces it's secure.

These guidelines are similar to crib bedding standards. Read more about the guidelines here. When selecting a bedside crib and travel cot sleep device safety, comfort, and ease of use are the primary factors to consider.

Safety

Many new parents and expecting mothers have chosen to cosleep or bed-sharing, as per the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendation that infants should be in the same room as their parents. The Academy says that sharing rooms is more secure than sleeping with a baby in the same bed because it lowers the chance of Sudden Unexpected Death in Infancy (also known as SIDS). While the AAP disapproves of bed sharing however, it does recommend that cosleeping be done on a separate sleep surface to minimize the risk of SIDS. The creation of the bedside crib was important for many families.

A bedside cosleeper is attached to a bed frame designed for adults. It's a crib like sleeper. The bedside cosleeper lets parents keep an eye on the baby and allows the baby the ability to sleep in their own bed. The best cosleepers have strict safety standards and are made with sturdy, high-quality materials. Check for the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA) stamp of approval, which confirms rigorous product testing and quality control, to ensure your child's safe cosleeping experience.

The safety of a crib is contingent on a variety of factors. It is dependent on the way it's put in place and secured to the parent's mattress. It is important that the bedside cot 6 months plus sleeper be secured to the mattress of the parent in a way that does not create gaps and spaces where the infant may be trapped. This could pose the risk of suffocation. It is essential that the attachment system of a bedside sleeper be tested to ensure that it can withstand the forces that might be imposed in use, such as the parent rolling on and off the sleeper, or a 25-lb. The attachment system, or the corners of the bedside sleeper should be subjected to the horizontal force.

The standard for bedside sleeping cribs incorporates, as a reference to the federal consumer safety standards for bassinets (16 CFR part 1218) which includes performance requirements for fabric-sided closed openings. The mandatory requirements in the standard also address head and neck entrapment hazards by requiring that after the application and release of a 50-lb. horizontal force in the vicinity of the attachment system and the corners of the bedside sleeper a gap that is greater than 1.0 in. must not be created. ASTM's electronic Reading Room offers read-only versions of the standard.

Convenience

Many parents are reluctant to cosleep because they are afraid of suffocation or SIDS, or because it is a "Ferberization", which forces children to sleep on their own. However, anthropologists have observed for a long time that many primates, mammals and people from other cultures sleep often. This could be due to the fact that infants are comforted by the familiar voice of their mother, and it also helps them learn to self-soothe.

The top bedside cot used sleepers have an innovative design that is attached to the side of a bed and pivots to allow easy access for feedings during the night or diaper changes. Find a model with adjustable feet, which retract to accommodate various mattress sizes. It should also come with ample storage space for all the baby's necessities.

Select a bedside sleeper that fits standard crib bedding, so it will be safe to use as your child grows. Think about a model that's convertible and can be used as a play area or a more substantial bassinet. It can last for many years.

Portability

A large bedside cot cosleeper with wheels or a light base is much easier to move than one with a bulky wooden frame or base. The Babybay Bedside Sleeper, HALO BassiNest Essentia and Snoo Smart Sleeper are all equipped with great portability features: adjustable feet retract to accommodate platform beds and legs fold inwards to ensure maximum proximity to the mattress and a sidewalls made of 100% mesh that allow for air circulation without fabric covering the baby's nose or mouth.

The Arm's Reach ClearVue is another excellent option that can be adjusted in 1" increments to fit most adult beds. It can also serve as a portable bassinet. It also swivels to allow for easy access to your baby so that you can comfort her, nurse her or check on the baby during the night.
