How on earth do you choose a pram?!

Cash Cow - so what did you put the baby in when it was still too young to go in a buggy, if you don't mind my asking?

A sling or wrap, probably.

I'm 5'9 and probably would have coped with a lower travel system but my husband is 6'5. It was only when we actually tried both the Silvercross Wayfarer and Uppababy Vista at the same time that we realised the difference in height. So if you get a chance to try out a few in a shop side by side, like I did in John Lewis, then do so.


Plus I know that Bugaboos are popular right now but the carrycot seems extremely low down to me so I would have absolutely hated it. One thing that is worth looking at is prams that don't require a separate carrycot as the baby can lay flat in them, as the carrycot is extremely bulky to take out and about in the car.

My husband's 6 foot 7 and he'll generally whine about anything and everything - but he's only ever had problems with cheapo stroller type prams - the others have been fine.

Budget. Weight. Maneuverability - the holy trinity of buggy selection.
