Our pram can face either way. When DH uses it, he normally has DD facing him because then his feet are further away from the wheels, otherwise he's always hitting the wheels as he walks.
Our pram only faces outwards too, not that we use it much these days.
But I always envied the mums walking around having bubs facing them, so if we ever have another bub I think I will get a new pram that can face towards me
Depends which one I'm using. We have a large jogger that only faces outwards....and on big walks around our area DS likes to look out at everything. The little stroller can face both ways and I tend to keep him facing me in the shops etc.
DS faced me till about 9 months when he started straining so much to see around i figured he should be upgraded to facing outward. We now also have a stroller which only faces out.
Up until 2-3 months ago Jazz faced us a lot of the time unless she wanted to face outwards. Now we have a stroller as our reversible handle is jsut too bulky and hard to steer, so we bought a more compact type, and it only faces out, but she prefers that now anyway most of the tie, otherwise I have her in the sling.
I was just discussing this with DF the other day.
That is my 1 requirement for a pram when we eventually buy one (yes..im not even pg and i'm already shopping for things ...hehe..saw an awesome cot in an antique store today but that is a different story!) anyway...
My one requirement is that it can switch between facing me and facing out. In those first few months you are your babies world!! so facing you is just smart rather than facing that huge scary world with all those crazy people!!!
then when they are bigger and actually want to take in some of the world i can flip it around. =)
plus that means i dont need to buy a 2nd pram =P
DD faces us in her pram. The seat can be turned outward but I prefer to ahve her facing me and there have been some studies about that it good for them if you can face towards you. But its personal preference and of course if your pram can!
