Advice on double buggy! 2 year old and newborn

[NE90]

Looking for some help if possible.

I'm currently pregnant with my second who is due in July. If born on time then my son will be 2 years old.

Would you say that we need a double buggy or something? I'm pretty clueless about this stuff.

I used the icandy peach and maxi cosi pebble with my first born. I was given a buggy board from a family member that fits onto the icandy frame but not sure if I will need a double buggy. I definitely think my son won't walk long distances so we will probably need something. I'm just not sure if you can get something that fits a car seat and buggy bit then eventually just 2 buggy bits lol.

Sorry if this sounds confusing!! xx

My son was 19months old when number 3 came along. I do have a double buggy as I’m a childminder but I haven’t used it a great deal with them both. I either used a carrier for baby and single pram or a buggy board with a seat x

My eldest was 2 years 4 months when our youngest was born, and we got a double pram (mountain buggy duet - I can recommend it!).

The 2 main reasons we got it were because my daughter was a runner, so I needed to know she was strapped down. I had a planned c-sec so knew I wouldn’t be up to sprinting after her if she suddenly decided to do one. Also, she still needed to sleep in the day, but wouldn’t sleep in the cot, so it was either car or pram.

We’ve never regretted buying it at all, it was worth its weight in gold.

Good luck! X

There's a Facebook group called "Bugaboo Addicts" lots of mums on there that often bring up double prams and if they need them etc. Check it out and ask what their thoughts and experiences are

I’m due my third child in June and will already have an 18m old. We have opted for the baby jogger citi mini gt double pushchair purely because my 18m old is walking but not that far and still naps on the school run. We already had the single version that I got with my eldest and love so will keep hold of that and just add a buggy board when the time is right. We just got the double version second hand as I don’t think they warrant the full price for the length of time we will use it xx
