Mountain buggy any one have one?

[Lozza]

I've got a mountain buggy and I find it's fantastic. They aren't as wide as the other 3 wheelers. I went through all the doorways in my house and was fine. They are fine to fit through shopping checkouts. They are also very easy to open and close. I found this was the only one I could work with. They are expensive but worth every cent I use for walking everyday and find it very easy. The only thing I can complain about is there isn't alot of storage room on the basket underneath for shopping but I can deal with that. I think great for any walking or running etc

Ashlukrs - Yeah I knew it was alot cheaper in NZ but I was told that Mountain buggy have banned items being shipped to Aus and other countries by its stockists
Oh well I have brought it now
Thanks for the help good luck with the birth its so amazing I actually enjoyed it

LuluHB - I got babies galore to match banana Baby in Sydneys price
Yeah the basinett option I think is very expensive when they will only be in it for a few weeks my daughter is 5 months and has wanted to be up in the pram since around 5 weeks.
If you don't mind me asking how are you finding the close age gap we are currently discussing having another baby?
Thanks for the help
Lozza - yeah they are expensive but I have found lately with teething I use my pram more than my car as its the only time she will sleep in the day so that makes it worth it as I get exercise too
Thankyou for the help

Good for you! Enjoy your fab new pram. I really wouldn't worry about the cost of the pram - like I said, I sold mine and got a really good price for it.

As for bubs close together, in all honesty I couldn't recommend it. I found pregnancy extremely difficult when I was trying to look after DD#1 (I was sick my entire pregnancy) and then effectively having two babies to look after once DD#2 was born. A friend of mine who has twins says from what she saw of me in the early days, it was harder for me than it was for her - at least with hers they developed together.

Its getting easier now and I'm hoping once DD#2 is say 12 months life will get a whole lot easier. I love both my girls, but there is no way I would ever do it again, and I would never recommend it to anyone else. I know second and subsequent children never get their mum to themselves, but I really regret not having more time to just enjoy DD#1 without having to juggle pregnancy and another baby.
