So, what exactly is a "pram"

[SIEGAL]

I am assuming its a stroller?? But even so, what does one consist of....I saw a fancy 1k$ bugaboo stroller in a store and it was multi functional. A small bed facing the mother for an infant, and then like a seat facing out for when baby is older, and that seat doubles as a car seat??? Are all strollers like this? or just the expensive ones??? What am I looking for?????? Is multi functional best or should I buy an infant stroller, then baby stroller, then car seat? I am so confused...I have no idea what to buy...

My next post, whats the difference betweeen bassinet, moses basket, and crib? and do I need all 3....euch! I am so uninformed on this baby stuff.

Prams...I know little to nothing. I had a good laugh the other day because I was reading someone's post about their 750 pound pram which floored me (the stroller I have picked out is about $135) and DH thought it was weights and not money, so he was saying, why not just buy a trailer to hitch behind the car if its going to weigh that much?

I think a moses basket is like a bassinet without a base/stand on it, those are both for when baby is small and "rooming in" with mom, and a crib is well a crib, four sides, with a mattress and bars that will work until baby is 2-3 years old.

I was told that a pram is suitable from birth as it reclines, whereas a stroller only sits up. And there's difference with the wheels too... Can't remember what it is though... Lol
