Travel stroller

So I have the icandy orange for a double pram. But I feel like we need a travel pram to take on holiday. Does anyone have a suggestion for a double travel pram?

A joie side by side or tandem evalite is your best bet. I have an icandy orange double and Lord is it heavy, I don’t blame you needing another to take with you🥲

I looked at the joie but need to check if it’s suitable from birth as my little one still uses bassinet. I love my icandy but it takes up too much boot space and that for when going on holiday then don’t want it damaged at the airport.

We looooove our baby city jogger double! Folds down smaller than my iCandy and it’s fit through 9 out of 10 single sized doors I’ve tried so far

In that case, try a joie side by side. That’s suitable from birth x

Hey just wondering how you find the Icandy orange as a double? I have the orange 4 at the moment but only use as a single, but expecting the next little one and wondering how it is with two? ☺️

it’s extremely heavy, I’m currently using public transport and won’t attempt to take it on the bus with the weight. My toddlers are quite heavy in it, so I have to be careful with the front wheels buckling. I haven’t used it in months because it’s a nightmare😂I’m going to go for a side by side pram as I’m expecting a third baby in January x

I love my icandy orange. I used it as a double for my 2 year old and baby. Now we don’t use it as 2 year old decided to never want to be in the pram and walk all the time. But I am due baby number 3 in March so I will be using it again as a double. I prefer the tandem as some shops aren’t forgiving for space with prams never mind a double one. I never found my pram heavy if I’m honest, found it really nice to push and never had an issue with it using it as a double. Only thing is I might change the hoods as they got filthy quickly 😂

Thank you so much! Baby is due in April so my little one will be 23 months so thinking I’ll need a double. Yes that was my worry with getting through doors etc with a side by side pram! I have the orange 4 and I actually found my hoods faded so quickly! I had the pistachio colour and they went grey within a couple months so I might do the same x

I wonder if it would be okay for a newborn and toddler heaviness wise. I’ve never found it heavy as a single but nervous with it as a double! What pram are you going for? I’m finding looking overwhelming 😂x

When does it get better?

I was crying on the phone with the perinatal mental health team today and the lovely lady, bless her, kept assuring me that it gets better. I kept telling her I hope so because people have been saying that since having my LO and it just feels like it keeps getting worse. She assured me it gets better....

Rant/WWYD

My sister (youngest, 24) has two kids, 4 & 1, and i (oldest, 30) just have my one who’s 6mo old right now, so i ask her for advice or call her to vent about things sometimes. Well im tired of her turning around and telling my other family members that I’m “losing my sh*t.” Literally have not lost my sh*t nor have i ever freaked out to her about my baby, i just call her to talk and tell her what stage my baby is in or talk through how im feeling, but she chooses to tell people that im like a complete nutcase or something which worries me that my family is going to start being judgmental about me as a mother or looking at me funny like I’m some fragile ticking time bomb.

What would you do in this situation? I’m already pretty much decided that I’ll stop telling her anything about my struggles, but I’m almost at the point where i feel like it should be confronted because she, of all people, should understand what I’m going through.

i just want someone to talk to😔😔😔😔

when things get hard i have nothing not any support from my partner im convinced he doesn’t even love me anymore but thats another story
I have a 3 yo and a 2yo that are in bed sleeping only just now. I have a 1 yo that’s been sleeping from 8 o’clock to 10 o’clock. I just gave her her milk and she would’ve gone back to sleep if it wasn’t that
I lost her dummy earlier in the day when I went out
so now she won’t go back to sleep and she won’t accept any of the other dummy’s i have!😔😔and it’s 10 o’clock and I’m gonna be up until 3 o’clock with her and when she does want to go to sleep i won’t have any dummy to give her she will accept and she won’t sleep without it i just wanna cry 😔i have nobody to talk to and i feel so alone i get no support from anybody i’m so tired and i don’t feel well to top it off😔

Has anyone died their kids hair a fun color and have any recommendations for kid friendly hair dye that actually works and stays in the hair for a bit? 👀👀👀

Sleeping bag

8 week old in sleeping bag for first time as big enough! Do you feed your child in the night whilst in the sleeping bag or taken them out, feed then transfer back to sleeping bag before putting down?

Not drinking

I’m going crazy. Baby born at 2.26kg. Slow to put on weight. This last week hasn’t put on any. Been trying to feed him at night and he’s not interested at all. Fast asleep. During day he will have 5 minute gulps and that’s it. He don’t cry for milk. I’ve got to keep offering to him. I try to offer it every hour but I don’t know what I’m doing. HV said nutrition comes after 5 minutes so I should pump first and then give him. I find it so hard. I tried to pump one boob nothing came. The other abit came. Tried giving him express he’s not interested in that too. Sometimes he will go for a longer a feed but not long at all. He’s 4 months and is currently 5.46kg. I have no family or friend support here and wish I had a cook, cleaner and nanny to help with everything so I can concentrate on the little one. I don’t know what’s wrong with him but I’m loosing it. It doesn’t help that my also stressed generally about my relationship and life circumstances. Any advice that will work. Any comfort you can give. I’m fed up. Is this regression - not feeding. He’s fast fast asleep. I’ve been trying to push the nipple in but that mouth is closed shut. I took some clothes off. Changed his nappy but he’s still asleep. Please help
