If you’ve ever gone shopping with your little one in their stroller, you are sure to recognise one or two of the following things:
Squeezing down the aisles
Grocery store aisles are not too bad, clothes store aisles are horrendous. No matter how much you try, the handle always seem to get stuck in some item of clothing and you’ll listen in horror as you hear a great rip...
Watching it fall to the ground
Unless the weight is evenly spread, brace yourself for the stroller to tip back as soon as you take your little one out! Your buggy is obviously trying to tell you it’s time to go home!
Putting it up and down
No matter what the instructions say, it's always a little tricky putting it up and down, especially when you've baby in one hand and you've to fold the buggy with the other... If only we could do this -
Trying to find a spot in the restaurant big enough for you and your buggy
Not only do you have to manage carrying a tray and pushing a stroller, you also have the mammoth task of trying to get a table with plenty of room to fit both a buggy and a highchair – the stress of that! And the other diners just look at you while they drink their hot coffee...
Dealing with the stares from child-free adults
Unless you’ve had the pleasure of going shopping with a buggy, you will never understand just how much of a pain it can be! And those people who stare when you accidently clip their ankle have no idea what you are going though!
While they might be a bit of a pain, we know the day we say goodbye to our buggy will be a sad one because then it becomes a new problem – chasing after the kids as they run riot through the store will have you wishing for the buggy days again.
