Little man is currently 20 months old and expecting a sister next month.
Anyone in/had similar situation that can advise if I should do a double buggy or buggy board?
Dread the idea of a double buggy as they seem like a nightmare to get in the car and out and about shops etc but if anyone has recommendations as it seems like the most sane option!
Worry with a buggy board little man too young he won’t understand he needs to stay on.
Also will likely be having another c section so don’t want to rely on baby carrying as may not be an option for a while!

Hello! I have two boys and the eldest was 20 months when baby was born. We got a Out and About double buggy and we definitely used it a lot. It was bulky in boot of car but pretty easy to fold and really good to manoeuvre round shops etc. then once the eldest was bigger we transitioned to a buggy board which is brilliant. Now he’s 3 and a bit and we still use it after nursery when he’s really tired. I can’t imagine using it when he’s 20 months though. They are just big babies really!

I would say double even my 2.5yo go in a double still he’s a confident Walker but tries out easy and wants to sit

Defo double buggy, I had my fears with getting one but honestly its the best thing, my LO's are 19 and 4 months, I use the joie aire double pram and its great. Its wide (obviously) but quite flat when folded so its great for the car and for holidays. Check facebook marketplace, I got one for £40

We’ve got a 2 month old and a 20 month old. We didn’t bother getting a double buggy, just relied on using the baby wrap for our 2 month old and our bigger boy uses his push along tricycle. I also had a c section but the wrap really takes the weight off.

I'm due in 2 months and have a 19 month old. We've gone for the out and about double buggy after lots of recommendations, managed to get a decent second hand one 🥰

Can I ask, to those of you with an out & about, do the seats go fairly upright? My toddler is nosy and doesn’t like to be too reclined!

I also have a 20 month old and he will be getting a little brother in 2 days. We have the icandy pram and have bought the attachments to add another seat in front. This way, hopefully it won’t be too wide to fit through doors etc.

hi yeah they do go upright

yeah they manoeuvre so well. I found it easy to push about and great over bumpy terrain.

Definitely a double buggy, I would say he's too young for a buggy board xx
