Mothercare 4-wheel Journey: Can you use the Mothercare Journey bassinet tilted at an angle?

Mrs. T. • 04 Mar 2023

Can you use the Mothercare Journey bassinet tilted at an angle? My baby has reflux, so needs to be at a slight angle where possible, to prevent multi-puking. I know the bassinet can be angled forward with the handle behind the hood, but should it be used like this? Or is that just for seat mode?

Heya, Mrs. T.,

You kind of can, yes. If you clip the part where the baby's head is, on the lower part (in the way you would be converting it to a seat unit but you only do tht one part and leave the rest bassinet-like) of it I mean, you will have it slightly tilted. If you, however, mean whether you could tilt the whole bassinet, no, the baby will be sliding down all the time. So definitely only tilt that one part with the strap.

When your reflux baby will be at least 3-4 months old and still have those problems, you can also transform the bassinet to the seat and use that in the most reclined position to help with the reflux, too.

Your -very berry- Eli.

Now, this is your place to ask. I'm listening.
