I'm sure this topic has been discussed a MILLION times so sorry if I'm asking people to repeat themselves.
I'm due with baby #2 in September. My dd will be 2y 10m old. I haven't considered getting a double buggy but haven't considered what I will do instead.
Will DD be able to walk better at that age than she does now. She's a pretty good walker stamina and distance-wise (like if we're in open countryside). But, when I take her shopping I still insist on her sitting in the buggy until the last 10 minutes as she's at that age where she'll forget to stay by my side, touch things on shelves or just suddeny stop and throw herself on her knees for no reason!
Will I be able to do baby carrier for the new baby and buggy for DD for several months? DD had a rather nice pram that I would like to use for the new baby since it lies flat, is warm and snuggly and faces me . I'll be able to use it on weekends when DH is around but it would be good to use it for short distances whilst I am on my own with baby and DD.
Is a buggy board best or should I get DD used to walking on reins? Has anyone had success with those backpacks which have a parent strap attached?
So many questions......
