Help!
I'm currently pg with no.4, but not due till July. My other kids are older and I haven't bought a pushchair for over 8yrs, so I have no idea about all the brands that are around now (God, I feel so old!).
Anyway, this is what I think I'd need:
We do a lot of walking in the woods etc, also we have an allotment, so something that can cope with rough paths. We also use public transport a lot so something that can fit on buses, trains etc. Sometimes we might go by car so nothing too massive that won't fit in the boot (though I suspect we won't be going anywhere by car lots that would then involve use of buggy, but you never know - so maybe not that important!). I'm also thinking of buying a sling, but no idea how I'll get on with that.
Basically, we go on lots of days out, so need something suitable for public transport, that's not going to be heavy & awkward to push about all day, has enough room to carry all our bits & bobs in it, can cope with all sorts of terrain, and of course is comfortable for baby!
I'd like a biggish basket if possible. Also needs to be suitable from birth. If possible, I'd like a rear facing option, though I suspect this may put it out of my budget!
I'm not afraid to buy second hand (and I think I may have to as finding something that meets all this is likely to be one of the super-expensive ones!), but I need to know what I'm looking for, as I said, it's been a long time since I bought a pushchair!
Any help or advice much appreciated!
