Hello lovely MNers,
I'm expecting my first baby in a few months so am ready to start thinking about prams/pushchairs.
- I'd like something where I can convert it from a pram to a pushchair when DS is old enough.
- Ideally it would have a parent-facing option.
- I walk a lot (or at least I did until I got HG with the pregnancy). At least 15,000 steps a day, very often 30,000. My record is over 65,000 steps in a day. I would like to do as much walking as I can with the baby to get fit and back into shape again. I'm not sure how much walking is realistic with the baby, but I'd like to do as much as I can in the nice local parks. I don't do running, just lots of walking.
- I am really expecting to only do pavement/concrete path walking, so don't need lots of off-road capabilities.
- We don't have a car so an easy ability to fold/load it in the boot doesn't matter too much to me, and I can leave it unfolded at home.
- I am hoping to travel to London to visit relatives occasionally, which will mean a train journey and then underground, but this won't be a frequent thing. I am not otherwise planning to do a huge amount of public transport and/or shopping.
- There's a possibility we might have another child, but not soon and I'll have to convince DH first
so one of those seat attachments at the back ought to be fine.
Any thoughts on what would be a good match for me? I am thinking about the Bugaboo Bee because it is supposed to be light weight but durable. I am willing to spend a decent amount if it's the right product and will last years. I'd hate to struggle with something cheap and then have to replace it after a short period. I'm hoping to go to Mothercare at some point on a day when the nausea is less bad to try and push a few around, so any reccomendations for what to look it for would be gratefully appreciated.
