To get rid of pushchair?

Dc is 3 and it never gets used. Just wondering when others stopped using pushchairs, etc?

About 3.5, when DC2 came along and needed it!

Which is later than most, but we walk nearly a mile to nursery so it was handy in the rain!

edited because I can’t read!

If it never gets used, get rid! My son is 2 and if we weren’t having a second, I’d say we’d be getting rid of our pushchair in the next six months or so. But I love decluttering so nothing stays longer than necessary!

We have a baby but she’ll be in her pram for a good while and when she does upgrade to a pushchair I think I’ll get a slightly nicer one - this was only a cheap one, which is probably why we have barely used it.

Get rid unless you have a holiday or city break planned soon!

We stopped at about 2.5 with DD1. Hoping to do the same with DD2 because I hate prams.

Do you drive? If not I'd keep it longer, it's massively useful if they are ill to get to the Drs etc.

If you do drive I'd still keep it untill September, little legs still get worn out on big days out. Or you can use it to cart all the stuff around whilst herding DC

About 3 sound right. We switched to one of those three wheel trikes with a handle to push along when we knew he wouldn't walk that far.
It was a pain in the arse. One good thing about the pushchair is all the crap you hang on it, stuff in it etc. Makes you slim down your essentials once you ditch it.
