I would say use your Ergo first and see how it goes. Some families get away without one, especially if you just drive most places. Also, at around 2-3 yo, young toddlers often just want to walk everywhere anyway, so you could still switch off the single stroller between the two.

If you plan to use a stroller for day-long trips quite often, if you live in a walking city and run errands a lot with two kids, or if you want to go jogging with two kids in tow... I would say to definitely get a double. Otherwise, you might be able to do without!

I was able to swing it without a double for about 4 months with two LOs about 3 years apart, but then got one since we lived in a walking city (had no car, walked or took the subway everywhere), winter hit, and I needed them both in a rain/snow protected stroller when we ran errands, went to preschool, the grocery, etc... We then moved to a suburb-ish area though and did well without a double for a few months again, but then I decided I wanted to go jogging with the two and so I got another one But if not for that, I think I could do without!

We got one secondhand -- you might check in to that. LOs are 28 months apart. We used it maybe once a day for a walk around the neighborhood before the weather got cold, but haven't used it lately. Nice to have, definitely not a necessity unless you do a ton of walking, I think.
