I'm Currently Feeling:  | Double Pushchair or not?
Me and OH cant agree on what to do. Are 2nd daughter is due 25th October and Ella will be 22months. She started walking at 10months and walks brilliantly so is no problem there so do i let her walk and get a single pushchair and a buggy board for Ella when she gets tired or a Double pushchair? What did other people do? Dont want to get a single one and then Ella play up and never walk and im stuck in town with a screaming newborn and a toddler throwing a tantrum! lol http://www.toysrus.co.uk/Product.asp...elgraco/739928
That is the double one OH wants. I dont drive i use the bus so side by side double one would be to big for bus! x |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I'd recommend a double buggy. It'll be easier, and she'll still be able to get use out of it for another year or so.. she might be a bit young to stand for too long on a buggy board (even though those things are great!) The tandem ones are a lot easier to navigate than the side by side ones, so the one you chose would be great. |

| We are in the same spot, our daughter likes to walk but can not walk long periods...I'd rather have a double then push a pram and hold a toddler! | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Yes,I would get a double buggy. I'm sure Ella will get tired if your out for a long period,so having a seat on there for her would sort your tired Ella out.  Aswell as baby on the way. |

This one might work for you. You can convert it so the older child can sit or stand. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I agree with the other girls, I would go ahead and get a double buggy.
Its better to be safe than sorry when she does get tired and throws a tantrum! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Thanks for your replies girls! I think i am definately going to get a double one now! I am going to get the one in the link! I think that will be more suitable for the bus and also because im really tiny a side by side one may be difficult for me to push around! It also wouldnt be fair to make Ella walk, atleast now she has the choice! x |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Oh,it's a good decision!
It's always best to be safe.Now if Ella gets tired or cranky you won't have the double job of taking care of a newborn and dragging a toddler.. 
Plus,thats a really good one,your OH made a good choice.... |
