Is it weird that I want to buy my son a buggy?

For him to push his toys in? He loves pushing his own buggy so I'm thinking of buying him one for Christmas! My husband seems to think it is strange as it is only for girls! I don't have a problem with it though?

My son had a baby doll and a buggy. He loved it and it went everywhere with us. I remember being in Boots once and lady came up to me and said how sad she was that her husband wouldn't let her buy a buggy for their son. I was so sad for her!

You don't need permission from your husband to buy toys for your child. Buy it!

@Montypontypine that is very sad :( I haven't got a doll with the buggy but he has plenty of teddy bears to put in it which he usually does when he wants to push his own buggy. I am excited to see his face on Christmas Day! He is only 2 GrinHalo

Buy him the buggy. Yanbu. Growing up, I remember our neighbour, a lad a couple of years older than me, had this massive Action Man collection. I was like "woahhhhhh" it was like Aladdin's treasure trove.

I never did get my own Action Man, but still got ballerina Sindy, mind. She was pretty boring.

Yay! Buggy for a boy! My son is 14 tomorrow!!! He's still got that buggy at the back of his wardrobe ... says he's waiting to give it to a little boy who would love it too

I find this flowchart helps the easily confused (like your husband for instance)
