Two Under 2

Double stroller or not

I have a bugaboo bee that I used for DD#2 and is still in great condition so here's my dilema...should I get the wheeled board attachment for DD#2 and put DD#3 in the stroller or should I just break down and get a double stroller? I know that by next summer comes DD#2 wont even want to sit in the stroller so I'm torn and really dont wanna waste any money and have so many strollers, we already have a snap n go, umbrella stroller and the bugaboo.

If I use the attachment for the stroller I would just bring the carrier along and when DD#2 wants to nap while we are out I can just put DD#3 in the carrier. But if I get a double stroller I wont have that problem.

FYI we are looking to go to theme parks and on many short vacations( weekend trips) this summer but after that I wont need a double stroller much.

Re: Double stroller or not

  • If you aren't going to use it much I'd say don't get it.  If you are having anxiety over what might happen if you don't have one and both kids need to be in the stroller (or you aren't big on baby wearing), then I'd suggest hitting up your local craig's list to find a good second hand stroller, even if its just for the summer.  As long as you aren't looking for a high end double stroller you should be able to get one for under $100.

    It took about 6 months of looking for me to find a double maclaren on craigslist for $50.  We used it often last summer, but haven't used it much since.  We will probably bring it on vacation with us again this summer since it folds up nicely and doesn't take up much room in the car.  You just need to keep looking to find something good!
