Bedside Cosleeper

A bedside cosleeper can be described as a bassinet that connects to the side of your adult bed. If you stick to the CSPC guidelines for infant sleeping spaces, it's safe.

These guidelines are similar to crib bedding standards. Read more about the guidelines here. The most important features to consider when choosing a bedside sleeper are: Safety, Comfort, and Convenience.

Safety

In accordance with the American Academy of Pediatrics' recommendation that infants are in the same room as their parents cosleeping (a method that is sometimes referred to as bed-sharing) has gained popularity with many new and expecting parents. The Academy says that sharing a room with a baby is less risky than sleeping in the same bed with a parent because it reduces the chance of Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SIDS). While the AAP discourages bed-sharing, it does recommend that co-sleeping be done on a separate sleeping surface to reduce the risk of SIDS. This is why the introduction of the bedside cosleeper was important to many families.

A bedside cosleeper is attached to a bed frame that is suitable for adults. It's an equivalent of a crib-style sleeper. The bedside cosleeper allows parents to monitor the baby bedside co sleeper and allows them the freedom to sleep in their own bed. The best cosleepers are built with high-quality materials and adhere to strict safety standards. To ensure your child's safety be sure to look for the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association stamp of approval. This confirms rigorous testing and quality control.

The safety of a bedside sleeper is contingent on a variety of factors that include how it is installed and connected to the parent's bed. It is crucial that the bedside sleeper be secured to the mattress of the parent in a way that eliminates gaps and spaces where an infant could become trapped. This could pose an entrapment risk. It is crucial that the attachment system for a bedside sleeper be tested to ensure that it is able to withstand any forces that are imposed to it during use, like the parent moving on and off the sleeper. The attachment system, or the corners on the bedside cosleeper must be subjected to an upward force.

The standard that is voluntary for cheap bedside cot beds incorporates by reference to the federal consumer product safety standard for bassinets and cradles (16 CFR part 1218) that includes requirements for performance for enclosed openings with a fabric-side. The mandatory requirements in the standard also address neck and head entrapment hazards by insisting that following the application and release of 50 lbs. horizontal force in the vicinity of the attachment systems and corners of the bedside sleeper, gaps larger than 1.0 in. It is not allowed to create a gap larger than 1.0 in. ASTM's electronic Reading Room offers read-only versions of the standard.

Convenience

Many parents avoid cosleeping because they are afraid of suffocation or SIDS, or because it is an "Ferberization" which requires children to sleep alone. Anthropologists have noted for years that many primates, mammals, and people from other cultures sleep frequently. This may be because infants are soothed by the familiar voice of their mother, and it may also help them learn to self-soothe.

The top foldable bedside crib sleepers have clever design that can be attached to the side of a bed and can be swiveled for easy access for middle-of-the-night feedings or diaper changes. Choose a model that has feet that can be adjusted to accommodate different mattress sizes. It should also have ample storage space for everything your baby needs.

Select a bedside sleeper that fits the standard crib bedding, so that it is safe to use as your child grows. Look for a model that is convertible and can be used as a play yard, or a deeper bassinet. It will last for a long time.

Portability

A bedside sleeper with wheels or a base that is lightweight is easier to move than one that has a heavy wooden frame or base. The babybay bedside sleeper HALO bassiNest essencetia, and Snoo Smart Sleeper are all movable. They come with feet that can be adjusted that retract to fit platform mattresses; legs that fold inward to allow maximum proximity to the mattress; and 100% mesh sidewalls to allow ventilation without fabric covering baby's mouth or nose.

The Arm's Reach ClearVue is a great option. It adjusts in 1" increments and can be used as a bassinet or a portable bed. It also rotates, allowing the baby to be easily accessible to comfort and nurse her or check on her during the night.
