Having a new baby in the house is wonderful. And if you're a parent bringing home your first baby you are soon to discover some of the wonderful ways your life has changed forever. And some of the inconveniences too. All of a sudden going out has just got a whole lot harder. You're going to need to consider buying a baby stroller.
There are definitely some practical problems getting around with a new baby. And you'll find that it suddenly becomes a 10 minute job to get into the car. How do you get out and about conveniently?
Probably your mum and dad had a pram for you. Probably a steel pram that weighed a ton and wasn't easy to get around. Or to get into the car. Your parents probably struggled to get pram and baby into the car and away in under 20 minutes.
But modern technology allows companies to make much more user friendly strollers that overcome these problems. They are usually made of plastic, so are lighter, are usually much easier to fold up and put away, and are easier to push with larger wheels.
And there's many more benefits to a modern baby stroller too. They should have reclining seats, so baby can either sit up or lie down, and so is much more comfortable at any time. And they have adjustable footrests too, so as baby grows the footrest can be moved.
And if mum is taking baby shopping she will also need plenty of storage space for that. And also good stroller brakes.
And whilst talking of brakes, here's a few safety issues. The brakes should be a foot operated brake that operates brakes on all wheels. The brakes should be good enough so that you can stop a fully loaded stroller on a good hill and the brakes will hold. But remember for safety never stop on a hill unless absolutely necessary. And even with the brakes on you should also stop across the hill rather than facing down.
And whilst I'm talking about safety there's more. You should get a fully adjustable and solid safety harness that is anchored in 5 places. It should be done up tightly, there have been accidents in the past where baby has been able to stand up in a pram or stroller.
And here's a couple more safety tips for the safe use of baby strollers. If you need to take baby and stroller up stairs then look for a lift. It's very difficult to take a baby in a stroller up stairs safely. If you must then take baby out of the stroller, but better not to go up.
And lastly, don't tie your dog lead to the stroller if you're taking the dog. You could well find that suddenly the dog takes off, the stroller follows, and baby is gone.
And surprisingly a good new stroller is very affordable. You can find stroller brand new at an extremely affordable price if you know where. A stroller is very cheap convenience for you and comfort for baby.
