to buy a new buggy for 3 year old

[fortunately2022]

His buggy broke a week ago ( Lasted for 3 kids ) He runs away fast so ive been using a backpack rein but today he decided to unclip himself and ran away and almost went onto a road☹

I've never used a buggy past 2 with his brother and sister but he is something else with his running

Also im newly pregnant so will buy something that i can use for baby

If you still think he needs one I'd be getting a cheap second hand one as he's not likely to need it for long

If you’re pregnant, you will presumably need something soon, so just get one that is from birth onwards, and compatible with a buggy board in case

I’m struggling to see how this could be unreasonable, as you (presumably) are going to be buying a new buggy for the baby anyway? If he can’t be trusted around the road on the reins then you need to keep going with the buggy. Bonus that it’ll do another kid.

I did it and this was for my youngest child - I bought an umbrella folding one that reclined slightly. I could not have coped without it very well as I couldn’t carry him if he was tired. We used it to carry stuff on days out etc and I passed it on a year or so later when he was much better at walking. I never regretted getting another one.

I got a Hauck one, my little one is 3, it's great as it accommodates a heavier weight. When we went to a theme park she could have a proper nap and plenty of room for bags etc.

It is now used for nanny and grandad days when they go to the beach/park.
Think it cost £160 from Argos.

I've been using a out n about which was fab so will just buy one again as ive still got a carrycot etc

True but seems pointless when i need to buy one anyway

If you're gonna need it for your other baby as well, Id buy something sturdy and new so It wont be wasting money because you'll keep it anyway. Our Joie pushchair lasted for years, got it for about £75 and DS doesn't use it anymore, still kept it in case we have another.
