Mamas&Papas Franklin Cot Bed Cot beds are often the perfect companion for parents. They are a great way to keep your baby cozy, and (hopefully), sleeping soundly.

It's also affordable, and includes an extra mattress. Gemma, mother of Boden 13 months old has tested the product.

To stop your baby's legs from becoming trapped the cot should have bars that are no more than 6 centimeters apart. Also, ensure that the slats are firmly fixed to avoid any loose or rusty fastenings. A high-quality mattress for your cot is essential for your baby's comfort. Choose mattresses with latex-coated coir or pocket springs, which offer the best support and do not sag. It's important to invest in a waterproof cover, too, as any soiling will get into the mattress and cause your baby to sweat or be uncomfortable. Some cots come with extra features, such as adjustable inclines that ease reflux, as well as storage for diapers (such as the Mamas&Papas Lua Bedside Cot). These are a great option, but make sure to only purchase items that are safe and are suitable for your baby. 3.
