Pram hunting

I had heard that Toys R Us had a sale on nappies going, so today I decided to go have a look and also research prams a bit. It’s all a bit daunting trying to make a decision out of heaps of different pram types.

So after my classes I headed to Tea Tree Plaza, and after walking around the centre I realised that Toys R Us is actually in the other section in Tea Tree Plus, so I wandered around anyway and had a look at prams in Target. After looking at some of the prams I immediately fell in love with the Mothers’ Choice Cino pram, not sure why but I just liked it. I tried folding it and putting it back together again, not too successfully mind you. So I ended up asking the help of another mother wandering around with a pram and got it back together, lol.

After that, being a bit clueless about what to look for in a pram, I hi-jacked parents wandering around and asked them their opinion. I slowly began to assemble some information. I discovered that some of the smaller strollers, while they SAY that they’re suitable from newborn, they’re not really ideal. Yes you can use them for newborns, but non of the parents I spoke to would use them, they’d use a bigger one with more padding.

So when I finally got to Toys R Us I looked at their pram selection as well as hi-jacking more mothers for opinions. I’m quite glad I did this, cuz I learnt a lot! I didn’t like any of the prams in Toys R Us, and they didn’t have the Mothers’ Choice one that I liked…….except in a tandam stroller but let’s not go there!

I didn’t end up buying a pram though, just wanted to look and research a bit, but I did get 2 boxes of Huggies nappies (I’ve been told that Huggies are the only way to go. I like that sort of advice, I just want somebody to tell me which brands I should buy, lol). I also got a belly support band to hopefully help support the weight of my growing tummy.
