Newborns should always be transported in a carrycot and not in the main seat. If your pushchair does not have a carrycot then you should think about an alternative travel system that is a car seat and pram newborn all in one.

It is also worth considering purchasing a footmuff that is made from soft and comfortable materials and shields your child from the sun while keeping them warm and comfortable.
