Buying a Double Buggy From Birth<br /><br />When it comes to choosing the ideal double buggy, there are a lot of things to take into consideration. We spoke with Fourth Trimester postnatal retreat expert Katie Billingsley for her advice on everything from seating options to age ranges to folding mechanisms and storage space.<br /><br />This buggy is essential for active families. It grows with you and your family from toddlers to twins. It's lightweight and has great maneuverability and can handle uneven terrain with ease.<br /><br />What kind of buggy do you want?<br /><br />Double buggys are great for transporting up to two children at a time even if they're not of the same age. They can also be used as prams and come with recline mechanisms within each seat, allowing your children can sit or lay down in various positions. A lot of them have plenty of storage space to store everything from snacks and drinks to nappies and wipes. They're usually lightweight that folds easily and are compact enough to fit in the car boot. If you're someone who drives a lot, it's important to make sure the buggy's maneuverability with the folded wheels and also to get in and out of your car boot.<br /><br />The most popular type of double buggy is the side-byside that you've likely seen on other moms pushchairs or even ridden in as a kid. They are ideal for older siblings who want to keep up with you or for twins and typically have numerous seating options (including 'cinema' seats) for your children to pick from. They're generally easy to drive and, if you opt for a model with soft suspension, you can make light work of the kerbs.<br /><br />Tandem buggies are also a popular choice as they're typically easier to turn than a side-by-side. This is due to the fact that the second seat is placed behind the first instead of sitting on top of it. The seats are generally wider and bulkier than a side by side, so you should check whether they are able to pass through doors or on public transport. They can be used to transport twins or a toddler and a baby or three children with the addition of a buggy board.<br /><br />Lastly there are the'single-to-double' convertibles which can be used as a single pushchair from birth then convert to a double by attaching a second seat, carrycot or car seat to their clever frame. They are more expensive than tandem buggies or side-by-side buggies, but they offer plenty of flexibility and come with a premium selling price. They are easy to steer and have large storage bins. They can also handle uneven surfaces. Some models even come with a built-in ride-on board and "cinema seating" for your child's older.<br /><br />Do you have twins?<br /><br />Double buggys are the best way to transport your children, regardless of whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two types of double buggy: side-byside buggies that let your children sit side by side and tandem buggies in which one child is higher than the other. Both can accommodate two fixed seats, but side-byside buggies tend to be smaller in width for getting through doors. Tandems tend to be wider in general. They can also be able to accommodate seats for toddlers and a carrycot.<br /><br /><br /><br />Do you have children?<br /><br />At first having a younger sibling can feel like a lot of responsibility especially if you are also caring for the infant. A double buggy may allow them to feel a sense of belonging if you place them in an infant carrier and push the older child. It will also give your child an immense sense of pride when they are able to be "big brother or sister" and help them adjust to their role.<br /><br />Side-by-side buggies can be a great option for twins since both children will have the same view. However they are heavy and heavy. We love the streamlined B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc with its innovative frame that can be expanded in width to accommodate two seats fixed and provides various configuration options, such as the second seat being used as an infant carrier or bassinet.<br /><br />We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to families who like to explore. This clever buggy can start with an individual pushchair, but is then convertible into a double by adding the place of a second seat, a carrycot or a car seat (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is ideal for rough terrain, and it comes with many thoughtful features that are sure to ensure that everyone is happy.<br /><br />Do you require a travel system?<br /><br />Double buggies are a great way to transport your children in comfort. However <a href="https://www.pushchairsandprams.uk/categories/double-pushchairs">double pushchair with car seat</a> required for every family. You may be able get by with just one stroller and some attachments like baby carriers and toddler straps that allow your child and you to ride on their backs or in the front.<br /><br />There are three types of double buggies: tandem, side-by-side and convertible. The two seats are positioned side-by-side, so your children will be able to be able to see each other. However, these are generally larger than a single pushchair and can be difficult to maneuver between kerbs. Tandem buggies offer a more compact alternative, with one seat in the front and another in the rear, however they can still be large and heavy to push.<br /><br />Convertible double buggies are great because they let you convert your stroller into double buggy by attaching an infant bassinet or car seat to the frame. You can leave your child in the car seat until he or is able to climb into the buggy seat. The UPPAbaby V2 is a good example - it can be used for twins as well as a toddler and an infant, or even three children with the optional PiggyBack Board.<br /><br />When your children are older and have more endurance, a double buggy can be used to accompany them on bike rides or day trips where they might prefer walking. But, it's important to remember that they may not desire to be in a buggy and can easily be tired and disgruntled when they are on longer excursions.<br /><br />Before you decide to purchase a double buggy at the time of birth make sure you take a look at the above factors and the specific circumstances of your family. Having a sturdy and reliable double stroller can simplify your life particularly if you have to navigate busy streets or bustling shopping centres.<br /><br />
