Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Baby HATES the stroller & walks

Anyone else have a baby who doesn't like walks?  I try to take her everyday and she lasts about 10min before crying and throwing a fit.  It makes it really hard to go anywhere during the day because unless I'm carrying her or wearing her, she's not happy.  Hopefully this is just a phase and she grows out of it quickly because I cannot stay in the house forever!

Re: Baby HATES the stroller & walks

  • It is just a phase, and she will most likely grow out of it. DS didn't start enjoying walks in the stroller until he was 5 months old. Start getting some use out of your carriers in the meantime!

  • DD will only enjoy a walk in the Moby or the Ergo, she HATES the stroller unless we put her in it when she's already asleep.

  • Try a carrier. If I put my baby in her sleepy wrap she's out like a light. She LOVES walks.
  • My DS is the same way.  He loves to be outside, but not in the stroller.  I thought it was because he wants to have his head up so he can see and in the infant seat he can't do that.
  • DD #1 never liked the stroller.  We tried at various ages and it was always a disaster.  DD #2 seems to be the same way.  I just have a variety of carriers now.

  • My DS started out loving the stroller then he started to hate it at around 6 weeks.  He would get to the half-way point of our mile walk and throw a fit and I would have to carry him the rest of the way home while DH pushed the empty stroller and walked with the dog. 
    We finally started letting him sit in the actual stroller with a head support in it and he did much better!!! I think he wanted to see everything and he couldn't do that as well in the infant seat placed inside the stroller.  Worth a try if you want?!

    PgAL/PAL welcome, always!
  • mine does too. i just wear her everywhere. she gets upset when the stroller stops moving. i found the key to keeping her happy in the stroller is to just keep moving! i bring the ergo carrier with me if we need to use the stroller and just pick her up and put her in it if she cries.
