My baby is due in August and I am really unsure as to what it will be like living on the third floor of a block of flats with a baby (and no lift).
At first I thought it would be fine, people have babies in far, far more difficult circumstances but I rent, so I could look elsewhere. I particularly thought about it because of the weather this year - I felt quite isolated on my own ( partner works long hours) and cannot imagine how you maneuver a baby around in the freezing cold with steps and icy paths etc.
I wonder if anyone could advise - obv this is 1st baby. Also, there is no where to keep a pram downstairs. There is no way of parking directly outside before 6.30, and getting into the building itself involves quite steep steps.
But...flat hunting is a pain / letting agents a nightmare and so on...
