Bedside Cot Bed

A bedside crib that turns into cot crib (also known as a side sleeper or bassinet) is attached to the parent's bed to ensure secure co-sleeping. It lets you easily reach your baby's bed for night feeds and comforting, without disturbing your own sleep.

It is essential to make sure that the crib is attached securely and regularly inspected for any gaps that could be an suffocation risk. Some cribs can be converted, with conversion kits to turn them into standalone baby cribs as your child grows.

Safety

Bedside beds are similar to bassinets for babies however they are attached to your existing mattress instead of resting on the ground. Parents who want their newborn close to them for feeding, comforting, and nighttime diaper changes love these crib beds. They are also an important component of safe cosleeping, or rooming in.

Whether you choose a sliding bed or a four-in-one bedside sleeper, it's important to have a compatible cot mattress that fits in the cot bed comfortably. Ensure that it doesn't sag or have any bulges and that it complies with safety standards, including the Lullaby Trust's guidelines. If you're purchasing a second-hand crib mattress, ensure that it's free of tears or cracks and doesn't have loose threads that your child could become entangled in.

The close proximity of a bedside crib allows mothers to respond to their infants needs throughout the night, such as breastfeeding or bottle feeding and helping them maintain their milk supply. They can also feed their babies without having to get up or leave their bed to get up. This promotes healthy sleep habits in both parents and babies.

Most bedside cot crib cot beds have mesh that's securely fixed to the sides of the cot to minimize the chance of a baby getting caught or trapped in the gaps. Make sure to regularly inspect the mesh to look for tears or loose threads that could catch or entangle the baby's clothing. Also, make sure there aren't any other dangers such as the protruding handles or bars that could encourage your infant to get out of bed. Beware of any plastic that is hot to the touch, and stay away from any sharp edges.

Convenience

You can keep your baby bedside sleeper close so that you can attend to their needs at any point during the night without leaving your bed. This proximity can make it easier for you to feed them or change them, and also comfort them when they awake, particularly in the early stages of parenthood, promoting better sleep for you both. It can also help in establishing a breastfeeding relationship.

This type of infant sleep solution is also called a sidecar or bedside basset. It's a secure form of co-sleeping that reduces the chance of suffering from sudden death syndrome (SIDS). It allows babies to sleep close to parents, which helps mothers establish a breastfeeding bond and get more sleep during the first few months following the birth.

The majority of cribs have an adjustable or drop-down side that lets you lift the baby out of the crib without leaving your bed, making it easier to tend to their needs at night. Some models include the option of manual rocking bedside crib, which is particularly useful for babies suffering from reflux. These cribs are often smaller than a moses basket or standard cot, and therefore are smaller and take up less space.

Some beds come with an area for storage underneath. This is a great space to store nappy and blankets. It's also a good storage space for toys and other baby accessories. There are some that can be converted, meaning they can change from a side-sleeper, to a full-sized crib, or toddler bed as your child gets older.

Home tester and MFM mother Jasmine describes the MoMi SMART BED as "a great option for your baby," saying it's not too big or bulky that means it 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 depending on your baby's age.

Styles

bedside crib and cot cots, which are bassinets that are stylish, can be attached to your bed. They allow you to lower the side of your crib so that it's within your reach at night for feeding or comforting. They're also a blessing for mothers who've had a c-section as they don't require you to get out of bed to reach your baby, and they can help speed up recovery time. Find cot beds that can be used with the bed frame of your choice and securely attach to the parent's mattress. Some models also have an adjustable 4th wall that can be dropped down when not in use to ensure your baby is safe and out of harm's way.

Budget

If you're planning to purchase a bedside crib, it's important to think about the budget you have. They're more expensive than a moses's basket or cot, but they can be purchased at a price that fits the majority of budgets. You'll need a crib mattress that is safe for babies as well as a comfortable and breathable set of bedding. They can be bought on the internet, along with additional items like a blanket or teether.

Think about a sliding or 4-in-1 crib as an alternative to the bedside cot. They're like a cot but you can slide them into the space beside your bed without gaps in between and can be converted into a regular bed when your baby outgrows them. They're also great for when you don't have enough space in your home, and they come with features such as a drop-down side or tilt for easy access to your baby. The only downside is that they only last up to six months. You'll have to move your child to a moses-shell or cot after this time.
