No judgements but how old do you think is too old to be in a pushchair?
I think everyone is different. I would personally stop using a push chair once my son is able to walk long distances or at least walk properly. On the other hand if I’m rushing about and he’s still young, I’d probably put him in the push chair. My max age to have him in one would be about 3 though. As I said, everyone’s different and tbh if your rushed of your feet like I said, sometimes it’s easier to grab the buggy✊🏼
2 I’d say, 3 max i think if going somewhere far. Erin’s old school there was a girl in her class who’d run out and be made to get in the buggy she always kicked off and didn’t want to lol that was odd
We stopped using it by around 2 1/2, mainly as she wanted to get out and walk every 5 minutes! Bethany's had lots of shoulder rides since then, although we encourage her bike and now her scooter in case her legs get tired.
Her grandparents insisted on using their pushchair for a year after that, until hubby intervened and told them no more. Doesn't surprise me that much, they had her in a rear-facing pushchair until she was nearly 2 and kept saying "ooh she keeps craning her head out to look around" even though when she was 12 months old, we'd told them 3 times to turn her around.
I think older than 3 is a no from me! A 4 year old in a pushchair just seems odd? Erica’s not even 2 and we only use it if we’re going for a long walk xx
Morgan was about 2.5 BUT he had a buggy board for a while after. By 3 he was walking everywhere. Max however. Because I'm not using a buggy board he relies on the pushchair much more. I'm trying to let him walk a bit more but I'm always in a rush and don't have time to let him stroll to Nursery & school! Long story straight I have no idea when he'll be out of it 😂😂😂 Although I think 5 is way too old. I guess we never know the circumstance of why they might be in one...
Just to say the kids might not be 4-5 years lol my son is in nursery and his 2 years old but looks like a 4 year old lol, I drive so his no longer in a buggy 🙈 but if I weren’t driving he would be till at least 3years of age or at least a buggy board on new norm buggy
It’s a school nursery rather than a private nursery so there’s no 2 year olds
@mrsbodell, oh I get it 😂🙈 no that’s just wrong 5 years old are way to big unless they have special requirements
Abbie was 3 in December. If we go out for the day, like to the zoo or something, we take it as she’ll hve a little rest in it in middle of the day. For day to day tho, she hasn’t used it for 7/8 months really. xx
Ethans just turned 2 and I've just started letting him walk short distances on the reins, mainly to tire him out, but also he takes soo long, he's small for being 2 soo happy for him to use the buggy for a bit longer xx
Reins are a life saver!! I definitely needed them with Lola!
@mrsbodell I most definitely need them with Ethan he's like a Duracell bunny and if I let him walk without them I think he'd realise and run wild. Xx
I think 2/3, following this post as in two minds if I get a double buggy or not with a 26/27 month age gap we walk a lot daily so he always uses buggy for some of that and runs/walks the rest
I bought a double for my girls who are 20 months apart. I got about 4 months out of it before Lola decided she wanted to walk. I’ve got a double waiting for the next baby, I’ll have an 18 month age gap
For the short space of time you’d get use out of it, maybe look at a buggy board instead, as above you’d probably only get a couple of months use.
I recon top end of two beginning of three. Unless it's a long day trip or something then take it with them as a back up. Also we've been advised most kids use them for Disney up til about 6/7 coz of the miles and miles of walking 😂
Yeah we hired one when we went to Chester zoo and even Ellis got in it he was so tired! It was red hot and we had walked for miles 😂
My daughter is 4 she not had one for a long time it was about 2 when she was in one
@abbyrose, @kerryy23, @courtniek98x, Lola hasn’t been in anpushchair for months but I think that’s more because of Maeve. Just curious as I’ve noticed parents picking up their nursery and reception children from school (so 4 and 5 year olds) and they are coming out and getting into pushchairs. I just found it a bit bizarre!
@kerryy23, I don’t drive either but push the single and Lola walks. She’s always been a confident walker but I did use a buggy board for a bit. I have had some nightmares where we are on the bus and she falls asleep. Trying to get a pushchair off a bus and carrying a sleeping toddler is haaaaaard 😂
age 4 an 5 in a pushchair me personally i thinks is stupid an pathetic. I seen a girl the other day in a pram must of been atleast 6 i thought wtf xx
@mrsbodell I can imagine 😩.. I think if I'd of had another one by now he'd probably be out of it, but majority of the time he would rather go on his bike if we go anywhere it's a proper little bike with stabilisers but has a removable parent handle so he's not cycling off into the road 😂
2/3 Harper’s 2 and a half and she hasn’t had a pushchair or trike for over 6 month she prefers to walk so it kinda depends on the child too x
I'm not sure, I think the older end of 3 maybe?
Kylans 2.8 and he still uses the pushchair if we go anywhere further than the corner shop/nursery
How old?
How old were you when you lost your virginity?
Just for fun!!!
How old are all the October mommy's?
when your children turn 18
How old will you be?
Just got my one month old to pee AND poop in the potty ☺️ #godiaperfree
How old is everyone ?
Depends on the child my eldest took his first steps just before he was 2, and used a pram until around 3 and half, but the other two stopped using them at 2, my friends son used a pram until 6 as the waiting list for his wheelchair making and fitting was so long.. looking at him in a pram you would assume he's a too old and should be walking etc therefore I try not to judge, also when I worked at a school nursery we had a child collected in a pram, but he lived 2 miles away in a village with no buses and mum didn't drive x
