My 8 week old infant is currently in his pram, we take a silver cross thing that changes into a buggy when the fourth dimension is right, but what I'm wondering is...when is the right fourth dimension?
When did your LO'due south become into the buggy instead of the pram? I can't help feeling my baby might adopt sitting upwardly a flake but then 2 months one-time is maybe a little scrap young
Help please!!!

Our HV told us "babys upward to six months should prevarication completely flat" so we kept our buggy in the pram-fashion until 5mths (by which age DS was sitting unaided, so buggy was safer considering of the harness).

Mine lo is 4 month and we have a travel organization, we moved in upwardly recently into the buggy as he is a. to nosey for his own good and screams lying downwardly equally he can't see and b. is according to HV the size and weight of a six month old

he loves being in the front (he isn't sitting up fully - he leans back a bit). Though I recollect a iii calendar month old might desire to see occassionaly equally well as they really start to explore their world and so!

Good luck with making a descion

We moved ours from the carry cot to pushchair bit at iv months. She hated lying flat- has reflux. I don't know why they say they have to lie flat until 6 months- car seats aren't apartment, neither are bouncers or rocking chairs which are fine for newborns. I felt as long equally she wasn't in it all day , a quick nip circular the shops isn't going to injure. Ours goes completely apartment- emmaljunga nitro urban center- but still says on information technology from 6 months!..?

I think probably it will be all-time to keep him laid flat in his pram for now so as due to his reflux he spends near of the day time awake and slumber in his bouncy chair and only sleeps flat on his back over night. Soooo, keeping him laid flat on his back in the pram will hateful he has a bit more...apartment time I estimate, it is only difficult as he really does not like to prevarication flat lol.

New parent?

Hi - I have the silver cross 3d travel system. My piddling girl is 12 weeks and hates lying on her back (unless having a play in front of tv set) and sleeps on her front of a dark. However did have her in the lay downwards bit up until about 3 weeks ago. Now I merely use the car seat constantly on top of the actual pram as she loves that as she can run across all around and obviously prefers it as not flat on her back.

Amazingly she has had very expert head command from solar day one. Is this why they say to lie them on their dorsum for kickoff vi months? never heard that earlier thank you x

Just to add together most people seem to have a maxi cosy car seat on superlative of a pram structure now days right from the give-and-take go!

oh i must exist a really bad mum so as dd2 went into her buggy from near 6 weeks, she has always been very strong though, full head command etc and although it didn't lie flat information technology's not far from it.

We but institute that she preferred it, it was and so much cooler in the summer for her, we are now only getting the pram out of the loft as it's getting colder and information technology will keep her warmer.

oh i must be a actually bad mum then equally dd2 went into her buggy from nearly six weeks, she has always been very strong though, full caput control etc and although it didn't lie apartment it's not far from information technology.

We just institute that she preferred it, it was so much libation in the summer for her, we are at present only getting the pram out of the loft as it's getting colder and it will keep her warmer.

My dd was 5 wks as she couldn't stand up laying flat and she was also a nosey niggling thing who never slept!  This time circular I intend on using a sling so my baby won't be laying flat very much at all! I'm not completely convinced that they need to lay completely flat - If lying down they should take their spine flat (ie not in a car seat for too long as it is curved but those pushchairs which are shaped - like the Quinny - should be ok as their backs are flat fifty-fifty though their legs are slightly raised.)

Just a lot of professionals say that babies should be in slings attached to their mothers which means they are nigh upright - and then goes confronting the laying flat theory. Besides - didn't I read recently that laying apartment for too long causes "apartment caput syndrome" and slings can foreclose that?

ALthough using a sling I will also accept a parent facing pram which converts to a pushchair for when I am not using the sling. I volition sit upwardly the seat when I experience my baby is ready to expect out but having him facing me for as long equally possible (til he gets out and walks if I have my way!! Lol!). 10

like pp'southward take said, communication given by HVs is infant should lie apartment until 6months simply obviously if infant gets too big for carrycot before then as my DS did and has reasonable head command then it's fine to motility to the seat but perchance best to get a head hugger if you don't take i with your buggy as when they sleep they get a floppy head, my DS nevertheless does when asleep in his pushchair then notwithstanding use a head hugger, he's 13 months HTH

I had to movement baby into the buggy role afterward about 14 weeks every bit she had outgrown the 'newborn' car seat part and was too heavy to stay in at that place safely.

I stopped using the carrycot around 4mths but the pushchair part of my travel system and my lightwieght buggy both lie flat, and so from 4mths they were in an inbetween position if they were awake (non fully uprigh but not completely laid flat either) only if they fell asleep in the pushchair they could be laid flat.

I have a travel organisation with a car seat carrycot and pushchair type seat. A few weeks agone, so about 3 months I inverse footling one from carrycot to pushchair seat. He absolutely hated carrycot, and would non autumn asleep in it, even if out having a walk. The simply way I could get him to slumber in the solar day was in my artillery (night he was fine in his cot) which is non like shooting fish in a barrel considering I accept a 3 year old to look after likewise and no family almost by to help out. Since changing to his pushchair he is happier when out and about (because he tin can be nosey) and he also will go to slumber in his pram when he is at home (hurrah!). He is a big infant (16lb and in 6-ix dress at 17 weeks) and has always been nosey and able to hold his head very well. However, this is non why I chose to swap him, I just felt we needed to try an culling as he was starting to detest our pram. You know your baby better than anyone, and I think that as long as baby has good head support at that place is no damage in having them sit up a petty (not vertical, just one click upwardly from flat). The just other thing that helped me brand the decision is that our pushchair tin be rear facing too as forrard facing-if information technology couldn't he would nonetheless be in his carrycot.
