Cool, feeling good about our choice.
Thanks pencils I will check out the mattress protector.

i agree. if you havent already, get a mattress protector for the carrycot. have found dri cot ones the best even if they are a bit pricey. my baby sweated a bit when i used a cheaper one.

you can use the dricot in the cot once baby grows out of the carrycot

Hi Pencils and peppermint

Funny as I went to look and try out buggies and after help and advice form very knowledgeable shop assistant we decided there and then on the mountain buggy urban.

Think we will get the carrycot too. Nice to hear you found it helpful.

I love the red]]> Sat, 17 Aug 2013 16:50:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43511&PID=5845926&title=buggy-recommendations#5845926 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43511&PID=5845725&title=buggy-recommendations#5845725 Author: pencils

i also did a lot of walking before and after I had babies. Highly recommend the mountain buggy urban. it rocks. we got the carry cot too which was very useful for the first couple of months.

We love our Mountain Buggy Urban.

Meets all our needs for height (me and taller baby daddy), lays flat for new born with adjustable straps at the back - this is super easy, we lift him up and down throughout a walk as he wants, safe and sound. It also has the rear suspension so is great at the beach and off road.

I have also locked the front wheel from time to time when I have needed to run home and it is great.]]> Thu, 15 Aug 2013 12:36:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43511&PID=5845719&title=buggy-recommendations#5845719 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43511&PID=5845584&title=buggy-recommendations#5845584 Author: Mrs Moth

I do a lot of walking too and we have a Phil & Ted's Vibe. Had to replace the back tyres after 18mths because I'd used it so much they'd worn through! It lies flat for a newborn or you can get a peanut carrycot for it so they are facing you. Best thing to do would be to go to a few baby shops and try out different buggies and see what you find most comfortable. ]]> Wed, 14 Aug 2013 14:45:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43511&PID=5845584&title=buggy-recommendations#5845584 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43511&PID=5845559&title=buggy-recommendations#5845559 Author: Babycakes1

Hi everyone,

I am trying to do some research on the type of buggy that would suit me when our first baby arrives. I do a lot of walking for fitness and I really want to continue this when baby arrives, so I'm looking for something baby will be safe and comfortable in (suspension). I've been eyeing up the baby jogger city elite. I'm quite tall so want something that will accommodate my stride so that I won't be bashing into the back of it.
I've heard three wheels are better than four for ease of navigation. Also is a hand break control better than just a foot control?
Do most buggies allow a new baby to lay flat or do you need to buy additional carrycots? I see online they often say suitable from birth but they don't demonstrate how to recline to lay baby flat.

So many buggies, so confusing!

Anyone recommend some buggies I should check out?
Thanks ]]> Wed, 14 Aug 2013 12:26:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43511&PID=5845559&title=buggy-recommendations#5845559
