Baby cots are an essential purchase that should be done before the arrival of your baby since it is basically where he or she will be sleeping at home. in fact, most Malaysian parents-to-be purchase a baby cot months before the baby arrive. a designated cot for sleep is incredibly important for your little one as they will need to be kept warm, safe and near their mummy and daddy during their sleep.
Having your baby share the same bed as you is highly discouraged, especially if your baby is below the age of 4 months as it can be dangerous for a newborn to share a bed with an adult. As much as high amounts of skin-to-skin contact are optimal for a newborn’s sense of security and relationship with parents, it is best to share a room with your baby instead of sharing a bed. the next best thing is of course to keep your baby close by placing him or her in a small cot beside your bed.
