I've now spent two nights on the trot dreaming about the pros and cons of various different prams/pushchairs, so I could really do with finding out what you recommend and to just get some mumsnet therapy. Seriously, sometimes I don't even recognise myself anymore..!
I'm thinking of getting the Maclaren Techno XL and putting my newborn in it. It says that it's suitable from birth. The seat goes to 170 degrees so pretty flat but not completely. Is this OK for a wee one? Also, having read every review for it on the interweb, I think that the suspension may not be amazing meaning that it leads to a slightly bumpier ride than some... but as I live in the city and wouldn't be going offroad or cobble trotting particularly, I think this should be OK. But is a stroller really suitable for a newborn? I get mixed messages from catalogues etc. which seem to lump them in with buggies for older kiddies.
Having spoken to a couple of people, they've said that they've given up on their travel systems/ prams/ big pushchairs pretty early and gone for a lighter more versatile model, so in the long run I think this would be the best buggy, but is it OK for the early days?
