Joie pram

Has anyone used this pram with a newborn? I found it on fb marketplace basically brand new for £30 so couldn’t leave it but I’m quite worried about putting a newborn in there. I know it says it’s suitable and it lies flat but I really don’t love how it’s not a proper carrycot I’ve got it in my head that it feels wrong and less safe for some reason 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 I know you can clip in a joie car seat but 1 it’s not the car seat I want for in the car 2 I don’t drive so I’ll be using the pram when walking which won’t be for short bursts of time so feels a waste of money!

Baby will be fine as it's built to lay flat etc , However in the early stages untill you feel comfortable perhaps use a baby sling / carrier that's what I did 😉 untill i actually got a double pram lol ! I opted for the oyster max , it's great sometimes i wish I had a side by side but wouldn't be practical as like yourself no car etc soo it would be hard getting on buses lol

i have also bought this pram as i have a one year old and a newborn coming soon. it cost me just under £200 and basically that was the most i could afford as the 100s and 1000s just wasn’t an option. Also it folds down well so i needed that for my car. i have looked at a lot of youtube videos and it seems to be ok. i know what you mean though. it doesn’t look half as cosy as my first born had

Maybe with a nice cosy footmuff it would feel better? Some of them have a sort of lip around the top so it feels a little more like a carrycot

@Elle (i can't see waves) I didn’t think of a carrier that might actually be more ideal it’s something I never used with my first, I’ll definitely look into buying one ty!! I’d of loved a side by side but hate how much space they take up also! How did you find getting on the bus with a double? I still get anxiety getting on with a single luckily I don’t have to often 😂

@Victoria the prices of some of them are ridiculous! Even if I hadn’t found that one second hand it’s probably the only one we could afford full price! I do love how light it is, it’s actually lighter and more compact than our single silver cross one atm 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’ll have to watch afew! I’m sure it’s just in our heads! 💜

@Katie oo I didn’t think of that I’ll have to see if I can find one, Thankyou!! 🩷
