Today there are numerous types of baby cribs to choose from including co-sleepers, bassinets and cradles. Styles vary from trendy to traditional and economical. No matter what your taste, the most important feature of your infant's new crib is safety. If the new crib looks adorable but isn't safe for your baby then you've just wasted a lot of money. Many baby cribs will convert to toddler beds and day beds as your child grows older. This can be an important consideration if you don't plan on having very many children. However, if you plan on having more than one child you'll probably need to invest in another type of bed once your baby grows out of his crib.
You might think that baby cribs with drop sides are handy and convenient. However, most consumer groups including Consumer Reports recommend staying away from drop side baby cribs until more testing has been done on these types of cribs. Safety standards have only been established for cribs with stationary sides. Another option that seems to be popular these days is the co-sleeper. A co-sleeper is a crib that sets next to the mother's bed. One side of the crib sets lower so the baby can sleep next to the parent's bed but in his own sleeping area. While this does allow the mother to sleep near her baby without the danger of rolling on top of him it doesn't prevent bedding from sliding into the co-sleeper in the middle of the night. This could possibly be a dangerous situation.
Drop Gate Crib
Some parents might also consider purchasing a cradle, co-sleeper, or bassinet for their newborn but according to safety experts your baby is safest in a crib. To date cribs must meet stringent safety requirements while the other options do not. This is an important factor to consider when choosing where your baby should sleep. Make sure you have established a safe and restful area for your newborn to sleep before you bring him home from the hospital. While a baby crib is often the first purchase parents make when they find out the mother is expecting a lot of care and consideration should be put into what type is chosen. Your baby will spend quite a bit of time in his crib so you want to make sure it's both comfortable and safe.
