My 18 month year old baby sometimes falls asleep when sitting in the mclaren buggy, very occasionally, and for twenty minutes max. However, she does tend to flop her head forward when this happens as she's in a buggy, not a pram.
I have lost count of the number of people who come to me and express everything from slight concern to horror that baby is asleep in an uncomfy looking position.
Obviously, i'm not thrilled about DD doing this, but i need to stick with the mclaren really because I also have a toddler, so i need the buggy board, and to stick a scooter in the buggy too. I'm also a regular on the bus, and you can only imagine how little i want to take the phil & teds on the bus
Firstly, is it bad for babies to have the occasional nap in a less than ideal position? Secondly, is there even anything i can do about it? Thirdly, what can i say to all these people who are making comments? It's getting on my nerves a bit now
Thank you!
