double buggy question

[mozarella]

Was looking at getting a double maclaren buggy but it says maximum weight is 15 kilos.

William is 9 month and already 10 kilos. How long would he fit in it, i was hoping it could last until a child is 3 years old.

Which have you got and can they take more weight?

i had a ladybird one from woolworths and i had my 2 2 and half year olds in it they were fine the problem is how much weight can you take on your back i gave up and got a single and buggy board my back and arms were killing i think it will be fine but try not to hurt yourself:)

My own middle daughter weighed two stone at one year she still weighed this at two years, most children slow down in weight gain

One question do you need to put a three year old in a pushchair? I get my children to walk from about two years (I don't have any long distances to walk)

If this child is heavy at three how about a buggy board if it's to far to make him walk?

I bought one similar to this

second hand from ebay for £70-odd quid.
Front seat is suitable from 6 months and rear is suitable from birth. It handles really well and is really spacious for the kids (only mine have tried it as I don't have mindees yet).
