New baby = new pram?
Probably one of the very first things that you’ll think of buying any new baby is a pram in that you figure that you’ll want to take them walks and generally show them around. However, it’s about the most useless piece of gear that you’ll get them.
For a start, babies are pretty small when they start out and rather than cart a massive lump of a pram around with you (and they’re all massive things), I found it a good deal more practical and pleasurable to carry juniors 1 and 2 around. Now, you’ll often be told that you just have to have a pram for their first three months or so (basically until their back is strong enough to allow them to sit up by themselves) and it’s certainly true that you can’t use one of the strollers until they can sit up by themselves but then, as I say, they’re pretty light for the first few months.
In fact, we hardly used the pram at all for the second little guy. The stroller though saw use for years after the first little guy got into it as, of course, babies get pretty heavy before they can walk sensible distances by themselves.
