Putting baby in carry cot on the pram

I didn’t even think about that🤯 personally I don’t think I’d have second guessed it and place her anywhere, knowing when she’s in the pram I’ll be pretty much focussed on her🤷‍♀️ I’m intrigued now…

I would say you don’t need to overthink as much as a Moses basket or cot as the carrycot is simply for going out. I would put my daughter feet bottom as hers was titled and I didn’t want her to slip down lol.

@Jay yeah It just randomly popped into my head and I got really curious and I couldn't find any advice regarding it, only about safe sleeping in moses basket/cot x

@Chleo the carry cot for my pram is quite big but I think I would feel more relaxed putting my little boy at the bottom. I know I'll be able to see him at all times but first time mum worries have kicked in 😂😅

I would've put mine feet at the bottom, but now I'm not sure because I'm trying to imagine what it'd be like the other way 😂

I don’t put mine feet down at the bottom, as she’s so small if I do I can’t see her under the cover 😂 I keep her just above so I can see her. When she’s a lot bigger I’ll probably put her feet down x

Depends if you’ll be using blankets or not? The feet to foot of cot rule is so they can’t slip underneath blankets. So if you’re not using the in the pram then no you don’t need to, but if you are then yes.

Depends. Most carry cots have a cover. If you put them feet down they'll be under the cover and you can't see them and there won't be proper air circulation. Also even with if you don't use the cover and use a blanket you'll see if she is moving under the blanket and you can reposition the baby easily. But to be safe you can while using a blanket

I asked my cousin about this as the carrycot is really long and has a cover so if she went feet to foot I literally wouldn’t be able to see her 😅 she said because obviously I’ll be awake and watching her it doesn’t have to be feet to foot in that instance xx

If you put him/her at top just keep an eye on baby if you want to be extra safe put at bottom, it’s not silly your just being a good mum so ask away xxxx I’ll be putting my baby at the top so I can have the cover on so I don’t get nosey people staring at him

@Esme how cute is your baby!!!!!!!! Congratulations to xxxxx
