Have you tried them all out and read reviews? I did both and then when I had narrowed it down further I went for the least expensive

Yeah we have :S
I love the Bugaboo and I'd buy it tomorrow if it wasn't for the cost!

What do you have?

Becca, I teach too, and I've had to go to flats/low heels... partly achey feet and partly that my centre of gravity has changed and I had a bit of a fall a couple of weeks back... ooops!

Out of interest, when are you going on mat leave? I'm due Feb 26th and planning to work until half term, finishing Feb 14th, but my covering teacher is already working for us and will start to take over in Jan I think.

Oops! Be careful!!

Ohhh you've made me feel v lazy! I can't work until Feb half term, that'd take me to 38 weeks so I'm finishing early Jan as don't want my class to have a new teacher part way through a term. Ideally I'd like to finish end of Jan though x

I got a Silvercross second hand as I loved it new but could not justify the cost of a new one.

Oo which one? Think the Sola is looking most likely budget wise for us

Bump at 18 weeks!

Rummer

It is an older version Linear Freeway, came to us in as new condition with all the additional bits and a rain cover, change bag etc I would have loved a new one as the Silvercross were my favourite but this one has hardly been used and is dark grey and pistachio.

Lovely bump pic!

I'll be 38+2, but I'm just hoping I can make it!!! I'm the same about not wanting to leave partway through a term, but I'll go stir crazy sat at home from Christmas til baby!!!

I'll probably change my mind nearer the time though!!!

Rummer

My due date is the start of February but I will have to be induced early so I think I will finish at Christmas and have my maternity leave start on the first day back in January. That means I can have a good few weeks off before the birth and only use a small amount of my maternity leave.

Been saving hard to try and take as much time off as possible, slightly regretting not saving earlier!

Part of my reason is my class are very difficult, lots of behaviour issues so I don't think I'd feel safe working that late

I'm sure you'll be fine x
