Pushchair question

What pram is everyone thinking of? I went into Mamma's & pappas yesterday. I'm short 4ft 11" so I was recommended the nuna triv. Has anyone got any experience with this one?

I got the mamas and papas ocarro which is fab. I’m 5ft 3. Just a word of warning don’t get the Nina car seat it’s not supportive enough of properly safety tested

I’m 4ft11 and I’ve gone for the Mamas and Papas Strada due to needing a light pushchair. Baby isn’t here yet but I’ve test driven and lifted it home, hopefully it won’t be too difficult for me x

Side note, nuna infant seat is really badly made, very chin to chest, many mums end up getting 2nd one

I’ve gone for the Kinderkraft newly. It’s so cheap but also stylish looking, I’m also 4ft 11 and I’ve heard it’s a nice small pram x

I’m 5’ and got this one you’re looking at, absolutely love it although baby isn’t here yet

I came to second what Lenka has said. We had the Nuna travel system (not the Triv, a different one) for our first. I love the pram/pushchair but the infant carrier was awful, put her so chin to chest. I’ve since found out that Nuna car seats are notorious for bad positioning of babies. I would strongly advise against using a Nuna car seat x

Does it have to be Mamas and Papas? Smyths toys have loads of prams that is quarter of the price. I feel like the car seats that come with these travel systems aren't safe in terms of the chin to chest. There's loads on display in Smyth's if you wanted to test them with your height.

We got the mamas and papas occaro, I’m 5”4 and it’s great for me. The bundle also came with the cybex cloud T car seat which we’ve found great x

We got the Ocarro at the Baby Show in a huge bundle from Mamas and Papas and it was only £600 for everything (7 piece bundle and car seat)

Have a look at attending one of the trade shows. They have show prices and have last years colour stock so huge discounts. Plus you can try them all out on an assault course.

We got the Nuna Mixx Next Buggy with Carrycot and it handles so well. LG hates it but only because she wants to be held instead haha. It is quite a high pram (the reason we got it is because the seat and Carrycot sit a good few inches higher than others I looked at so she's closer to us and easier to get in/out as tall parents)
You should be able to buy without the car seat - we got ours in Black Friday as the Pushchair and Carrycot.
If you buy from Mamas and Papas for a later collection, just make sure they put it through the system correctly. We ended up having to find the Carrycot separate as the store put it through that we collected on the day we ordered and by the time I noticed the colour scheme was discontinued (it was a limited run) and they didn't really do much to try to apologise - just a refund or a different colour that wouldn't match the Pushchair.

The nuna Pippa car seat is not great for babies so I wouldn't buy it as a set. It tends to put babies in a very chin to chest position which is dangerous for their airways

I got the ocarro - I bought it online from winstanleys prams much cheaper than in mammas and pappas

Omg so many 4ft 11 ladies! I'm also 4ft11

I have a mio one, purchased locally, height adjustable handles and lowest setting is perfect for me

I got a venicci travel system and it's amazing. The handles are adjustable too so it works well for me (5ft1 and my husband 5ft11)

We got the nuna Tavo travel system. We love the design so far and I have a few mom friends that love it.
I’m in Canada though and we have different requirements for car seats so I’m not sure if it will be a good recommendation for you.

Injury at school

My poor boy got injured at school today. Face first on concrete. School handled it well. One of the staff went to the ER with him until we got there. Has a huge knot on his forehead and face swollen and scratched and bloody. Poor boy

Leaky nappy advice

We use mamia nappies and have had no issue until now. We are using size 3 but she is leaking through them every night as she sleeps through the night. We’ve tried 4+ for night but they are still too big. Does anyone have any advice or any other brand that might hold more in a size 3?

Ms Rachel ??

How many of you are putting ms Rachel on??? I’ve just introduced it to my 8 month old and it’s like sorcery. I feel so guilty putting it on because LO don’t take his eyes off the screen, but it’s the only way I’m getting 20/30 minutes during Velcro baby stage. I’ll put it on twice a day for up to 30 mins at a time, the rest of the time we’re out the house, playing with toys or he’s with me doing jobs around the house. Should I even feel guilty?😩

Circumcision question

So my son got circumcised before leaving the hospital he’s 3 days old and they told me the day after leaving to take it off which is today and just add a lot of Vaseline to the area to help it and when we took him to his pediatrician he told us to just keep adding Vaseline on top of the gauze and it’ll fall off on its own but now I’m worried that it’ll get stuck to his skin if it sits to long. What do you feel I should do

Thoughts on this pram?

I’m 18 weeks pregnant and thinking of prams to get my baby. I saw this on Amazon and it seems affordable, plus the reviews are very positive about the quality of the product. Are there any mamas in the group that got this specific model? If so, how did you find it?

Toddler tippy toeing
