Pushchair recs for #2?

AFC84 · Aug 11th, 2011, 15:30 PM

I hardly used a pushchair with Finley until recently, I usually just wrap him on my back except I'm feeling too sick and tired at the moment. I don't want a double buggy as I'll mostly be wrapping the new baby, but I thought it would be a good idea to get a new one which can recline flat. I plan to have F in the pushchair most of the time with the new one on my front, but I'd like to have one where I can alternate which child is in the pushchair if necessary.

So, after that ramble...I need something which can be used parent facing and is suitable from birth. Any ideas?

The silver cross pop and the mclaren both go flat and are good, fairly cheap buggies.

Cheers, those are both only parent facing though aren't they? I'd like something that can go parent facing too, just to be awkward!

A lot of people seem to like the m+p sola and also the babystyle oyster but i dont think the seat unit on that is suitable from birth, not positive though.

I think I'd get a Sola if i were to choose my pushchair over again, I have the m+p ultima and its too bulky really.

I love the look of bugaboo donkey, I'm trying to convince oh to get me one

Thanks ladies, the Loola looks good, I have the Oyster already and you're right it doesn't recline flat, I have a carrycot for it...the harness also wouldn't go small enough for a teeny one anyway.

The Sola looks really nice, will have to go in and have a proper look.

I wouldn't use a double pushchair enough to warrant the price of a Donkey! Bugaboos do sound ideal but I just think they're really weird looking.

Does anyone have a Stokke Xplory? I'd love one but not sure if they're much good for a newborn either.

I love my m&p sola. I have had many pushchairs with my daughter and had the m&p switch to start with Harrison. But out of all of them the sola has been the best.
