Do I need a cot with a pendulum?

At the heart of the crib with a pendulum is a system on sliding hinges or bearings, which allows you to rock your baby easily and simply. The length of the pendulums is strictly calculated in order to provide the necessary frequency of oscillation, and the movement of the pendulums is activated from the light touch of the hand of the parents.

Beds with a pendulum are ideal for sleeping newborns and children up to six months. But you need to be very careful, using such a crib as an arena for a toddler. Make sure the pendulums are fixed before you leave the child in such a crib alone, because when you try to stand up, the baby can fall.

To order motion sickness does not take such a valuable parenting time, manufacturers propose to install an automatic pendulum for the crib, which is triggered by the cry of the baby and can rock the child in several modes.
