We still went on super long walks and I was terrified he would run into the street...so my solution was to give him his own doll stroller, that he would push along while I would push his empty one. </p> <p>So I'd wait and see, even though I LOVE the Bugaboo Donkey. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-the-stroller#post-984298 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 09:15:04 +0000 luckypenny 984298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: we are in the burbs but I definitely use the stroller everyday for long walks to the park/downtown. Hmmm </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-the-stroller#post-983670 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 02:31:54 +0000 lamariniere 983670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends, where do you live and how much do you already use the stroller? </p> <p>We live in a big city and do not have a car, so we use the stroller all the time and DS is 2.5. Baby 2 will be born right before DS turns 3 and I am planning on doing the roller board for him on our single stroller. I think if DS was just turning 2 for the birth instead of 3, I would have gone with a double stroller (the Donkey, for sure :-)). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-the-stroller#post-983612 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 00:14:30 +0000 luckypenny 983612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HLK208: I only really "announced" on the POAS boards ! Eek! I can't believe it's reeeeeaaaaalllll! DD and I walk all the time but its mostly in our downtown area and I'm scared she would run in traffic while I'm pushing a stroller so I'm def leaning towards the double. </p> <p>@Sweet T: I know! We already have two strollers so I'd definitely want to get rid of one. Ughhh</p> <p>@anbanan15: DD likes to be worn also but at 25 lbs right now she hurts my back! I can't imagine her 5 or so lbs heavier next year :( you must be strong! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-the-stroller#post-983606 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 00:09:24 +0000 sarac 983606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 22 months I still use mine a lot - we do a lot of activities where we walk for miles or more, and she certainly can't walk that long. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-the-stroller#post-983338 Thu, 01 Aug 2013 21:10:02 +0000 anbanan15 983338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats! So cute they will share the same birth month!</p> <p>We rarely use our stroller, but it's always been that way. He just preferred to be worn, even now at 27 mo. We are going to hold off on a double until we see if it's necessary. We got such little use out of the first stroller that I don't want to get a double and end up in the same position. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-the-stroller#post-983185 Thu, 01 Aug 2013 20:27:50 +0000 Sweet T 983185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS will be 2 next month (omg!) and we still use a stroller. DS2 is due at the end of October. I think we're going to try and go without a double stroller. I really don't want to buy another stroller if I don't have to. I'm hoping the single strollers we have plus our carriers will be enough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-the-stroller#post-983100 Thu, 01 Aug 2013 20:11:19 +0000 yin 983100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congratulations! We still use our stroller today, and LO is 27 months old. I'm debating whether or not to get a double stroller, and I will decided after baby arrives. We don't use our stroller too often since LO will walk most of the time. When we're out for long periods of time I like for him to have a place to rest, and he can usually get a good nap in there too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-the-stroller#post-982579 Thu, 01 Aug 2013 18:36:40 +0000 HLK208 982579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Eeek, so excited for you!! I think I missed your big news?!? Congrats!!</p> <p>We used the stroller regularly until DS was 3. Mostly in places I didn't want him walking (busy city streets, stores where he would run away, etc.) after that, I only used the jogging stroller with both of them since he can't keep up on his bike. He still rides in the jogging stroller at 4.</p> <p>So we did get a double. If I didn't run frequently, I could have worn #2 while my oldest sat in the stroller if he got tired or needed a nap. But he was a full year older than your DD will be when baby #2 comes. If I were you, I'd get a double! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-the-stroller#post-982306 Thu, 01 Aug 2013 17:28:01 +0000 autumnlove 982306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!</p> <p>I still use a stroller for my 19 month toddler. Sometimes she wants to walk and sometimes she wants to sit next to her sister! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-the-stroller#post-982300 Thu, 01 Aug 2013 17:24:24 +0000 luckypenny 982300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD will be turning 2 the same month LO #2 is born. Do I need a double stroller? Should I just get a kickstand for our Orbit stroller?</p> <p>I'm thinking of getting the Bugaboo Donkey if I did get a double so that I could use it as a single if I didn't use 2nd seat long. </p>
