Is P&T the only pram that you can sleep 2 kids in at once?

[Jas]

Well I am preg with #2! Noah will be about 21months when this one is born so I am looking for a pram that could accomodate both of them for a while. I know some have the attachment for the toddler to stand up or just the little seat but if I'm out shopping etc I want Noah to be able to sleep if he needs too.

I also know there are the side by side prams but I can imagine they are all hard to get through stores etc due to the width and then there are the tandem prams that would also be hard because of the length.

So is there any other options like the Phil and Teds that are a singular pram size that are capable of holding 2 sleeping children??? I'd be particularly interested in 4wheelers

I wo0uld love any info or prams or a no if it is the only one like it

Hi Jas

I have no information for you but will be watching this thread closely and I'm pregnant with #2 now and DS will only be 14 months old so this is a question I've been asking myself.

I saw someone with a great one with the whole kit and kaboodle at shopping on the weekend and now I'm really kicking myself for not asking her what it was and where she got it.

i'm in the same position as you guys and i'm looking at the mountain buggy urban- as i do lots of walking with my dog. it is a side by side but it looks very thin. the seats are independant of each other.
i'll be interested to see what other people like.

Don't know of any 4 wheelers, but have a look at the Love N Care Europa pram with toddler seat. It's like the P and T's.
Not sure how much you want the seat to recline, but I think this one reclines enough so that a toddler could sleep in it. It reclines more then a car seat anyway, and they seem to be able to sleep in them!
(I know a great sale with them at the moment, so let me know if you want the link)

Happy shopping!

i have the phil and teds.. But let me say this

If your #1 is going to be 21months!... mmm cant see him wanting to sleep in a pram regardless if out shopping.
My DD is 14 months and the only time she falls asleep in a pram is out of pure exhaustion! and will do this in an upright sitting position anyhow.

was just reading thread to see what options were but I have to say PP my son is 4 days short of 23mths and he stills sleeps if we are out all day ...

[PinkPalace]

BUt does he need to be laying flat? this is what i am saying.
And i guess i would never be out with a toddler and newborn shopping for a full day anyhow

[Rach75]

I dont think he would fall asleep in a toddler seat IYKWIM!!! he willl sleep in semi recline

The P&T toddler seat does recline a little bit.

We have the sports model (it was the only one out at the time we got it), but would love to get one of the other ones that fold up with the toddler seat attached and have easier breaks. Also, i still hate the sports recline things with claps and zips on the main seat, if you have a choice between that and a normal recline, choose the other one!

totally agree pink palace.....i personally would go for the pram that can adjust for just one child...i.e the three wheeler with todd. seat.

My DS has fallen asleep in a toddler seat, poor little man LOL.

He was 19 months when DD arrived. I found tho that most shopping trips could be planned around his sleep anyway so sleeping in the pram wasn't usually a problem.

there is an nz pram that the baby can go ontop where hood is google ABC adventure buggy, if i was going to have another i would get this one as the toddler,baby seat is on top and can lay down etc ahs a hood and the baby can be on top and bigger kid in the normal section.

Hope this helps, I have a friend in NZ says it is great.

sweetpea - those prams look great! They've got triplet & quad prams too. There's a youtube vid about the toddler seat one here: YouTube - ABC Adventure Buggy Reclining Toddler Seat - Key Features

the adventure buggies are great. You can get them in combinations up to taking two toddlers side by side and two newborns on top! I know that this combo for 2 babes and two toddlers is around $1,4000.
A couple of twin mums with two sets have them and love them!!!
Definately try and stay away from a side by side if you can as they are a bugger getting around
You can get a stroller pram that accomidates two kids limo style- but it is not bigger or wider than a normal stroller pram. Not sure how much they recline, but have seen kiddies asleep in them. It is available in Australia, but its relatively new so you might have to ask around- the people who have them, love them as well.

HTH and good luck

WOW !!! I've just been to the Adventure Buggy site and this is exactly what I've been looking for!! Thanks Sweetpea! There is a Melbourne based company called Go Bubba Go who delivers free within Australia with any order over $200. They are also made by Phil and Teds which I found interesting.

Apparantly they have a sale on too at the moment ....

Thanks ladies for all your replies...I'll check out the prams you've suggested. I'm not worried about the recline cause Noah will sleep sitting up but it's more you know some prams have a bit where the toddler can stand on or the little seats that attach that go around the bum but not behind the back so wouldn't be able to sleep in either of those.
