Currently 18 weeks pregnant and thinking about prams. At the moment what I think I’d like is the Babyjogger, but with the carrycot attachment so the baby can be parent facing for the first 6 months. However the main thing that puts me off is that once the baby is too big for the carrycot it will need to be forward facing, and I’m worried that 6 months is a bit young for that to be the only option. Has anyone used one from that young (or from birth!) and how did you find it? I’m also a bit worried about using it on the bus (apparently it’s massive 😬) but I think I could cope with that.
I’ve also found an excellent value bundle online which includes the Kinderkraft juli. I like the look of this as it has both parent facing and forward facing options, plus the wheels look quite big/robust for dog walking. The reviews on Amazon seem to generally be very good, but given how reasonably priced it is I’m a bit suspicious!
Current thinking is probably to get the bundle, but potentially upgrade to the Babyjogger when the baby is old enough to forward face all the time.
Anyone have any advice to share, or suggestions of other prams? It needs to be something that can cope with rural walks, but it also easy enough to get on and off a bus as I won’t be driving. Budget of about £7-800 but I don’t have an issue with second hand, so I’d be happy to pay that for a pricier second hand one. From a shallow point of view I love the Babyzen Yo-yo but it’s not really very practical for our lifestyle…
