Using a pushchair for walking refusals

[Housesoftheholy]

Can I ask others opinions on this please as I feel unsure what to do for the best.

Ds is 4 nearly 5 and a very big lad. We are having regular episodes of walking refusal. For lots of different reasons, tiredness, unfamiliar places, meltdowns etc.

He gets very tired and I daren't walk anywhere now due to the possibility of a refusal to walk.

I'm a single parent and have joint problems due to a condition I suffer and I keep ending up carrying him which is playing havoc with my joint and back.

Am I going to make things worse if I get a pushchair? I feel it would help but don't want to make ds lazy?
