Stroller recommendations

Hey all! Im in Ontario and no one likes to shovel in our area when it snows haha. This is my second baby and the first time I had Graco and it was such a pain in the butt to close. Looking for recommendations!

Thank you

Get a jogger, I love the baby Trend ones

I would go to a baby store like babies r us, west coast kids, or snuggle bugz to test out all the strollers. I loved my Uppababy Vista in the snow with the bassinet for my winter babies. I have a friend who used a Graco jogging stroller and hated it in the snow and it didn't turn well indoors

Uppababy v2 vista. I have. I’ll be buying a second rumble seat once my
Lo grows out of the bassinet. My daughter still goes in the other rumble seat so I might get one those kick boards for it too. We have traveled all over with it. It’s in my top 3-5 things I bought that were well worth the money.

I also have a stand for the bassinet to use it as a bedside bassinet. Very versatile and comfortable as well.

Uppababy vista v 2

Our veer switchback has been fantastic with the snow and on trails, I used it every day in the winter when mine was little and he slept so well during walks in the snow.
We also took it to sandbanks and it did well in the soft deep sand.

It is very heavy and large so I don't love loading it into the car. But I believe it is similar in size and weight to the vista. It can be a double stroller too.

agree with you! I originally was set on a Maxi Cosi but after trying models at West Coast Kids we went with Uppababy Vista V3. We LOVE it. Baby was born during the February snowstorm in Toronto and we got to really test it out then.

When does it get better?

I was crying on the phone with the perinatal mental health team today and the lovely lady, bless her, kept assuring me that it gets better. I kept telling her I hope so because people have been saying that since having my LO and it just feels like it keeps getting worse. She assured me it gets better....

Rant/WWYD

My sister (youngest, 24) has two kids, 4 & 1, and i (oldest, 30) just have my one who’s 6mo old right now, so i ask her for advice or call her to vent about things sometimes. Well im tired of her turning around and telling my other family members that I’m “losing my sh*t.” Literally have not lost my sh*t nor have i ever freaked out to her about my baby, i just call her to talk and tell her what stage my baby is in or talk through how im feeling, but she chooses to tell people that im like a complete nutcase or something which worries me that my family is going to start being judgmental about me as a mother or looking at me funny like I’m some fragile ticking time bomb.

What would you do in this situation? I’m already pretty much decided that I’ll stop telling her anything about my struggles, but I’m almost at the point where i feel like it should be confronted because she, of all people, should understand what I’m going through.

Not drinking

I’m going crazy. Baby born at 2.26kg. Slow to put on weight. This last week hasn’t put on any. Been trying to feed him at night and he’s not interested at all. Fast asleep. During day he will have 5 minute gulps and that’s it. He don’t cry for milk. I’ve got to keep offering to him. I try to offer it every hour but I don’t know what I’m doing. HV said nutrition comes after 5 minutes so I should pump first and then give him. I find it so hard. I tried to pump one boob nothing came. The other abit came. Tried giving him express he’s not interested in that too. Sometimes he will go for a longer a feed but not long at all. He’s 4 months and is currently 5.46kg. I have no family or friend support here and wish I had a cook, cleaner and nanny to help with everything so I can concentrate on the little one. I don’t know what’s wrong with him but I’m loosing it. It doesn’t help that my also stressed generally about my relationship and life circumstances. Any advice that will work. Any comfort you can give. I’m fed up. Is this regression - not feeding. He’s fast fast asleep. I’ve been trying to push the nipple in but that mouth is closed shut. I took some clothes off. Changed his nappy but he’s still asleep. Please help
