Please answer! What can i use for holiday? 4 month old baby??

Question

Im off to cyprus end of sept and not sure what to buy, i do not want her pram getting ruined so could i buy a stroller for holiday or are they too big for 4 month old baby?

Answer 1

have you thought about using a wrap or a sling?  They take up much less room than a stroller and you can hold your baby in many different positions (forward facing, back, hip, and cuddle hold)

Answer 2

Lots of strollers are for 6 months plus but you can buy them for younger children. Try Mothercare, you'll get one for about £60 suitable from birth.

Answer 3

strollers are suitable from 3 months plus. If you're taking it on holiday, I'd recommend one that folds up really small and doesn't cost too much. I have a McLaren Triumph and it's very handy, only cost about £50-60.If you're worried about the comfort, you can always pack it in with some blankets etc to keep baby warm and cosy.

Answer 4

Erm.. 4 month old baby in Cyprus? Hot weather, mosquitoes.. good luck !

Answer 5

You can use one. We did for our baby on holiday, I bought a cheap one from Ebay. Get one that lies back though and has plenty of space underneath for the bits and bobs you will need. The only problem may be that the safety straps start quite high up on the back. You may want to add another harness for safety's sake.

I love my Kolcraft Contours Options single stroller. It can be used with an infant car seat or with the seat and you can face the seat toward you or away from you. I have the three wheel model and it is extremely easy to push. You can also lock the front wheel if you want to jog with it. I love this stroller and I'm contemplating buying the double one. Try it out in the store, you can push it with one hand, which I need with 4 kids.

Answer 7

Check that the stroller is suitable from birth , I bought one for my grand daughter and that one was suitable  

Answer 8

A stroller would be fine as long as it reclines almost flat. Even though a lot of companies advertise their strollers to have a 'reclining seat' they only move back ever so slightly so they won't be at all comfortable. You need something with a 3 or more position recline x*x

Answer 9

No you can buy strollers that are suitable from birth so i'd get one if I were you especially in case it gets lost! Visit your local shops and find one you'll be happy with.

Answer 10

A stroller would be best......... just make sure that the seat can lie back as flat as possible.

Answer 11

I dont think a stroller is to big at all. I been putting mine in it since she was 2 months old, she likes it better cause she can look around and see whats going on, in fact she would cry if i kept her on the carrier. She is also 4 months old.

Answer 12

i would buy an umbrella stroller. just a small folding one. they are great for travel! the fabric will cradle your baby. the only down side is that they dont recline. but they are practial and inexpensive
