We need to buy a pram for our first DC and are very confused and pretty much just going round in circles so I'm really hoping that somebody on here can help.
We've narrowed it down to either the Bugaboo Donkey or Mamas and Papas Ocarro, but either is a compromise in some way and I'm not sure which comprises to make!
My initial thought was the donkey as we're planning on having more DC fairly close together (about 2 years apart probably) so we can convert it to a double rather than paying for a whole new pram, and having researched other doubles this seems to suit us best for that circumstance anyway. However, I'm now a little concerned that the baby might grow out of the carrycot before 6 months as we're expecting it to be quite tall (DH is 98th percentile for height) so the Ocarro has the upper hand there as the seat unit lies completely flat so is suitable from birth and tbh, I prefer the idea of a lie flat seat for naps even beyond the six months anyway. Except, if we have a second then we're going to have to compromise on that anyway in order to have a pram that can carry both of them.
The Ocarro is also easier to fold and put in the car as the seat unit doesn't have to be taken off first, although I think slightly harder to push off-road (which we will likely do quite often) and doesn't seem to have quite as many handy features as the Donkey (e.g. a stand to use the carrycot as a moses basket for occasional trips or to use the seat unit as a high chair when out and about or visiting people).
Sorry for the long post but please could I have your opinions? What would be important to you when choosing?
