    Hehe no, if hubby is in the county then he comes with me to push the trolley; otherwise I take the opportunity to run down the cupboards and do basket shopping, or online deliveries. Problem with taking hubby is we will come out with double the amount of food on the list! I even use 2 baskets if needed, I find it less cumbersome... I'm already wondering though; if you have a pram and you're by yourself, where do you put the shopping you pick up as you go round the shop?!

    if you have a pram and you're by yourself, where do you put the shopping you pick up as you go round the shop?!

    I've only taken the pram to the supermarket a handful of times, only if thought of the odd item we needed. They've gone in the pram's basket

    If doing a full shop then I take the car and put him in a trolley.

    We use pram for walks into town and for longer flat-ish walks on days out.


    Issue we have now is working out what OH is going to do with a newborn and a 22 month old
