Two Under 2

3u3 how do you take walks?

I am 10 weeks pregnant and already thinking about how I am going to take walks with all three kids in the spring.  What do you do?  I don't want to buy a triple stroller.

Re: 3u3 how do you take walks?

  • I have 3 under 3.5 and figured that if I really want to take them out on my own, I would put the older two in the double stroller and then I can carry the baby in the bjorn. I haven't been that courageous yet.

    DH and I did take them walking the other day. He pushed the double stroller and I pushed the single stroller with the carseat in it.

  • You'd have a few choices.

    Let your oldest walk while your other two children ride in the stroller.

    Wear the baby in a carrier while your older two go in the double stroller.

  • My friend has 3u3 (almost 3 year old and twins). 

    She has a BOB stroller and the almost 3 year old sits on the front. Not a real seat but he fits and is happy to be next to his brothers. He also says "i want down" so she can stop and he gets off and walks if he wants.

    She does daily 3 mile walks with everyone and amusement parks. the twins are 5 months old.

  • My oldest rides his scooter or balance bike when we go on walks. If it was a really long walk, I would wear the baby.
  • We have started taking our older kids on walks around the park without a stroller (with our puppy) and they take turns riding on DH's shoulders vs walking. They are getting more used to walking instead of riding and my hope is that they will take turns in the stroller and/or the new baby will ride in a bjorn depending on the situation. Still not sure how soon I'll be able to get out with all 3 on my own - maybe once they're all potty trained :) ?? We're thinking about it though...

    This is what I was going to say.

    #3 hasn't arrived yet, so most often I just use to double for walks right now. But, when DD was first born sometimes I would wear her and push DS#1 in the single stroller. Now that they are older sometimes I let DD#1 ride his strider (or walk) and I push DD in the single stroller.
