Bedside Cosleeper
A bedside cosleeper is a bassinet that is attached to the side of your adult bed. As long as you adhere to the CSPC guidelines for sleeping spaces for infants it's secure.
These guidelines are similar to the crib bedding standards. You can learn more about these guidelines here. The most important factors to take into consideration when selecting the best bedside sleeper are Safety as well as comfort and convenience.
Safety
In accordance with the American Academy of Pediatrics' recommendation that infants sleep in the same bed with their parents cosleeping (a method that is sometimes referred to as bed-sharing) has gained popularity among many expecting and new parents. The Academy states that room-sharing with a baby is less risky than sleeping in the same bed with parents because it lowers the chance of Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SIDS). The AAP does not advocate bed-sharing however, it does recommend that co-sleeping on a separate sleeping surface is a good option to lower the risk of SIDS. This is the reason why the creation of the bedside cosleeper became so crucial for many families.
A bedside cosleeper is a similar to a crib sleeper that can be attached to an adult bed frame. The bedside cosleeper lets parents keep an eye on the baby and gives them the freedom to sleep in their own bed. The top cosleepers adhere to strict safety standards and are built using durable, high-quality materials. To ensure the safety of your child ensure that you 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 the way it is set up and secured to the parent's bed. It is important that the bedside cosleeper is connected to the mattress of the parent in a manner that prevents gaps and spaces where an infant could be trapped. This could result in the risk of suffocation. It is essential that the attachment system used for the bedside sleeper be examined to make sure that it can withstand forces that may be applied during use, for example the parent rolling on and off the sleeper. The attachment system, or the corners on the bedside cosleeper must be exposed to an upward force.
The standard that is voluntary for bedside sleepers includes by reference to the federal consumer safety standard for bassinets and cradles (16 CFR part 1218) and includes requirements for performance for enclosed openings made of fabric. The mandatory requirements in the standard also address head and neck dangers of entrapment by requiring that, following the application and release of 50-lb. horizontal force in the vicinity of the attachment system and the corners of the bedside sleeper, an opening that is greater than 1.0 in. It is not permitted to create a gap greater than 1.0 in. Read-only copies of the standard can be obtained from ASTM's electronic Reading Room.
Convenience
Many parents have resisted cosleeping for fear of suffocation, SIDS or the "Ferberization" process that requires children to be in a room by themselves, anthropologists have long noted that mammals and primates as well as those who live in non-Western societies, have regularly coslept. This is because babies are soothed when they hear the voice of their mother, and they also learn to self-soothe.
The best bedside sleepers feature clever designs that are attached on the side of any mattress and pivots so that you can easily reach it for feedings or diaper changes during the middle of the night. Choose one with adjustable feet that retract to accommodate various mattress sizes, and a big storage compartment to store all of the necessities for your baby.
Choose large bedside cot that is compatible with standard crib bedding, so it will be safe to use as your child grows. You may also want to look into an adjustable model that can transform into a play area or a more deep bassinet to last for years of use. It folds easily for transport.
Portability
Depending on the size of your bedroom a bedside sleeping system with wheels and/or a lightweight base could be more convenient to move around your home than one with a heavy wood frame or massive base. The babybay bedside sleeping system, HALO bassiNest essencetia and Snoo Smart Sleeper are all portable. They have adjustable feet that retract to fit platform mattresses; legs that fold up to allow maximum proximity to the mattress; and 100 mesh sidewalls that allow ventilation without fabric covering baby's nose or mouth.
The Arm's Reach ClearVue is a top option. It adjusts in 1" increments and can be used as a bassinet or portable bed. It also swivels to allow easy access to your baby so you can comfort and nurse her or check on her throughout the night.
