then forward facing into a pushchair.

oh no, ok thanks misdee. I love ht elook of one on ebay and it's really cheap as well - just think i'd rather have a rear facing pushchair as well as pramette - althou J seems to like bieng nosey! lol.

anything you'd recommend? - prammete type but not too bulky for the car (will have to def sell the my child stroller then to keep DH on side)

how old is J?

i did have dd3 rearfacing in an A3 pramette at 18months, i put a cushion behind her and used a set of reins from mothercare. but she is small for her age.

15 months. I had a bebecar at stylo which was rear facing but was far too bouncy and the reins were no good (far to loose for him) I did like the rear facing thing thou.

lol - i'm in training! lol - keep looking, DH is keeping me reined in thou - scrooge! lol. prob no more than £100 and that would also be on the stroller going as well.

all's DH keeps saying is 'you've already got a buggy what do you want another one for?? - have got the my child stroller, and an urban detour. (also a mclaren for mums). what DH doesn't know thou is I want one of the M&P 3 in 1's for any no 2's I have! lol. (and will obv then have to get another stroller as well. lol.)
