Choosing a pushchair newborn (his comment is here)
A pushchair newborn is among the most important baby items you'll need. There's a lot of choice available, but it's important to choose the best one for your family.
Experts advise that babies lie flat for the first few months, so search for a model that has a fully reclined seat that can be used as early as birth.
Safety
The safety of your baby is the most important factor when choosing a pushchair. A good pushchair must have a seat that reclines to a lie-flat position and have a five point harness that is padded and has strong connections. Carrycots are the ideal choice for newborns. They should not be placed in the seat that is used for primary use. If your baby's pushchair doesn't come with a carrycot, you might want to think about a travel system that's a combination of a car seat/pram.
The frame of your stroller needs to be sturdy and stable and it should have a broad base so that it isn't able to fall over easily. Be careful not to overload your pushchair's back with shopping bags or toys as this can affect its stability. If your pushchair is a three-wheeler it must have a good suspension, and the wheels should be composed of PU or rubber to provide greater shock absorption. Look for brakes that are easy to operate and check that they're working properly before you put your child in.
A good quality pushchair must have a raincover which is secured with a zipper and has a padded lining, this will help to keep your baby dry and comfortable. Some pushchairs have an hood or sun canopy that can be extended to give more coverage when required. Make sure that the handlebars of your pushchair can be adjusted to allow parents to find the most comfortable position for pushing and driving.
Most pushchairs have a footmuff that keeps your baby warm. It can be removed if the temperature becomes too hot. It is a good idea to take this with you when going out and about in cold weather or when the sun starts to shine strong.
Check that the pushchair buggy, or pram you purchase meets British safety standards. If it's part of a travel system, ensure whether it is also compliant with European safety standards ECER44/04 and R129. Before you begin using the pushchair, ensure that you have read the instructions. You should also show anyone who might use it how to fold open, close and secure it. When the pushchair travel system isn't being used, remove all locking mechanisms.
Comfort
Newborn babies have a small neck and little strength which is why they must lie flat to feel comfortable and to breathe. A pushchair without a lie-flat unit is not suitable for use by infants or newborns. They can fall asleep in an upright position, which can prevent their airways from opening fully and could lead to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
To ensure that your child is always in a comfortable position Choose a reclining pushchair with a lie-flat seat unit that can be used from birth. This kind of pushchair may also be called buggy, stroller, or pram.
In addition to a lying-flat seat model, you should also look for other features that are suitable for babies, such as the ability to raise and lower the chassis from the footrest as well as an ample seat with 3 adjustable height settings - you can even use it while you're feeding your baby or toddler. Consider purchasing a footmuff made of soft, comfortable material which shields your child from the sun and keeps them warm. The majority of brands sell these separately or include them in their bundles of accessories and pushchairs.
Parents often buy multiple pushchairs to upgrade as their child grows. If you're planning to do this, make sure to choose a lightweight pushchair with a sturdy suspension, a large rear tire that can handle rough terrain or city use and a one-handed folding design.
Travel systems that combine a car seat, a carrycot or pushchair chassis with an chassis and seat are another great option for infants and toddlers. These are perfect for long-distance travel pram because babies can travel safely and comfortably in a car seat or carrycot and later transferred to a pushchair when they are ready.

Check the specifications to be sure. Some prams pushchairs have the option of lying flat, but without carrying cots. They could be suitable for babies from to six months old.

Unlike older children, newborns have a weaker strength in their neck muscles so they require to lie down flat in order to sleep. Experts recommend that babies not be transported long distances with pushchairs without this option as they may develop breathing issues when they are in a scrunched-up position. This is a risk that can contribute to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
A pram or pushchair is suitable for babies from birth and most models have the option of incorporating the carrycot, which is perfect for babies, particularly if they are very small. Certain brands also offer various combinations of pushchair and pram or 'travel systems' which include both the carrycot as well as a seat unit, as well as adapters for your car seat so you can combine them from the outset.
