We have a well loved one....it's only been worn twice....the rest of the time it has been played with to death lol.
My DD was a bolter. And she's quick.
I remember at 30 something weeks pregnant, I had my mum with me and the three of us were shopping in our main street (so very busy with traffic). All of a sudden I heard my mum gasp, and I saw a little pink streak run out the door. Now I've had plenty of practice chasing crooks, but man, I caught her just before she was about to bolt over the pedestrian crossing about 50metres away. My mum couldn't believe I could run so fast
When we were given a leash as a gift I was horrified, but I dug it out after that. She only took two goes to understand that I wasn't mucking around. She hated it (and I didn't love it either), but it got the message across. All prams have to have a wrist strap these days and that's what DD holds onto now. She was 2 and 10months when DS was born.
