I could see the line on the tests but I am one of those that when ttc I would take a test 10dpo and look at the result in every angle and the best lighting to try and see a second lineHaha I couldn't see the lines either but didn't want to comment because I don't like saying I can't see anything when people have their hopes high
I'm 15w and hoping to look soonish. There is a baby place near be that is open by appointment to look at things like prams and carseats etc where you need a demo, but you can't just walk around a john lewis or something.When did you all go look at and buy prams?
I feel like I'm being a bit premature at 14wks but I'm also too excited
I have an icandy peach, I bought it as a travel system with the maxi cosi cabriofix car seat and adapters, I bought the isofix base separatelyAnyone who hasn’t bought their pram yet - what are you thinking of getting? I don’t need one, but I like to perv in other peoples choices
We have a baby jogger city mini GT. When this 4th one arrives the big two will move in to the back row of seats and so our old pram (a My3 from mothercare 8yrs ago!) wouldn’t fit in to the space. The GT folds nice and small and fits perfectly. It’s for my 2yo, and all our stuff, as baby will be in the sling. It’s also so easy to fold, I wish we had one years ago!
@Mel17That’s fabulous to see the digi. Fingers crossed!
From a super quick google so far the Babyzen Yoyo seems to tick a lot of boxes for us. Haven't ever tried it, or seen any pram in person but we need something really light, that folds quickly and small. Easy to get up and down stairs on the tube, small enough to go around a narrow corridor in our flat, needs to fit in our tiny boot etc.Anyone who hasn’t bought their pram yet - what are you thinking of getting?

I have heard the icandy peach is good I like the look of it! I also like the Egg stroller and also cybex Priam xI have an icandy peach, I bought it as a travel system with the maxi cosi cabriofix car seat and adapters, I bought the isofix base separately
It’s a great pram/stroller Iv had it for years and using it for the new baby because it’s still in great condition and I want my money’s worthI have heard the icandy peach is good I like the look of it! I also like the Egg stroller and also cybex Priam x
I got mine from Lesters Nurseryworld as it is local.Ok, I’m being so thick now so be nice. Is there a place called pram centre or places that just sell prams? Anyone recommend the best places to go?
I’ve heard it’s great for city living. A sling would be handy too for on and off the tube, means you don’t have to fuss about stairs/escalators/waiting for a lift.From a super quick google so far the Babyzen Yoyo seems to tick a lot of boxes for us.

Any of you guys have any experience with this one or recommend another small, light pram?

Yeah I will definitely be getting a sling too. I want a decent but not crazy expensive pram since I have no idea whether I will opt for a sling more or the pram more and won't know until I start using both anyway. I'm tiny and weak so the sling could get annoying if I go far, but might be super handy for just popping out to the local shop. The pram will be good to push about but annoying to navigate the tube with.I’ve heard it’s great for city living.

You are so right, nobody knows what will work until the baby is here, and I found what we used (transport wise) changed as baby grew anyway, so it’s not even a constant (like all things with babies!)Yeah I will definitely be getting a sling too.

Its just total guesswork until the baby is here and you have tried everything out to see what works best!
Would you suggest sling over a carrier? Or is it sling for tiny baby carrier for an older baby?
I never had a wrap carrier for my daughter but think I might order one of these for this babyYou are so right, nobody knows what will work until the baby is here, and I found what we used (transport wise) changed as baby grew anyway, so it’s not even a constant (like all things with babies!)
For a newborn baby I prefer a stretchy wrap (will link the one I have below). I find they are just nice and soft and hold a newborn lovely and close and tight, without being too bulky. As they get a bit older (6-9mo, depending on size, my son was huge, my second daughter was teeny!!) I like a carrier like a Tula instead. But again I think it’s persona preference.

The ickle bubba, have you looked at the reviews?I don't really know where to start with prams/travel systems, but have been looking into them recently. I have two on my list that seem decent and not too overpriced?! If anyone has any experience with them, let me know!

My mum has offered to pay for a pram, probably feeling guilty after her shitshow reaction at Christmas and how "disappointed" she was, so can probably get a good one out of her, but I don't think I could ever justify at £1000+ pram!
