recommendations please
in Baby
Since my DD is growing at a rapid rate she has already out grown the lay flat part of her pram and I have to have her in buggy mode which is forward facing. She is only 4 months and seems too small to be facing away from me (plus i hate not seeing her beautiful face!).
Can anyone recommend a 'mum' facing pram please?!
Thanks in advance xx

I'm not sure now whether it does the same but I got a silver cross 3D off ebay for ??55 that can be both forward and rear facing in pushchair mode and still reclines flat either way while she is young (she's 14 weeks). Not sure if the current silver cross model does the same but it's a sturdy pushchair and am pleased with it overall (although a little heavy/hard to steer and fills the boot!!).
Apparently quinny (Britax) is pretty good according to a friend and that is on offer at Mothercare at the moment for ??224 - might be worth a look xx
I have a look at quinny! ... Anyone recommend any others? Xx
Drawbacks are:
It's quite expensive as a second pushchair - think mine was about ??320
The 3 wheeler front swivel wheel is an absolute pain in the bum, but I think the 4 wheel version is much better
Shopping basket is tiny and you have to buy it separately
It's quite big for the boot if you only have a small car
The raincover is a bit of a pain to put and off and I find that the zip can be a bit sticky
It is however a very smooth ride, has different positions when facing front and also when facing parent and my baby is really comfy in it.
Hope that helps

might be worth it tho......xx

i did have a britax vigour whihc has now been discontined but replaced by the britax bsmart. i loved this one too, got it when my LO grew out of her carrycot part in our gracco pram at 8 weeks old and i was not putting her forward then! i only got rid of it cause the airline broke it when we were on honeymoon.
we also had a second hand quinny buzz but hated it!
anymore info on them just shout. i'm a parent facing advocate on here!
