I have double-pushchair-backache

...and leg ache....and arm ache.....and knee ache....

After getting bad wrist ache with my old Maclaren a friend on here recommended a Mothercare double.

it's one of those with big wheels - it's absolutely brilliant, easy to push and turns on a sixpence...

Well worth the investment if you do a lot of walking

You know when a lightbulb appears over your head and u realise something.

Well that's just happened...

Now I know why my shoulders are hurting. It's because I haven't pushed my double buggy for 6 weeks. I wondered why they were hurting and now I know

Hope you're feeling better soon, Ive taken some Nurofen

Although I used to get chronic shoulder ache from my awful cheap buggy, now my nipper doesn't usually give me back ache.

..thinking about adding a motor to it.....
.....or using the schoolies as reindeer

much as I loved my old maclaren double, it did give me 'double buggy back'! a well known pain for CMs

Much better now I have a mountain buggy and a P&T depending on where I am going

I've had my quad buggy out today with 4 little lumps in - I am shattered!

**mum24** · 13-09-2012, 08:34 PM

same here, I had triple buggy out yesterday for first time in months, and so tired last night. It is a really nice one, usually so easy to push, but now carrying 3 tired 2 and 3 year olds who are heavy anyway, I really felt it.
Hopefully they will get back into walking now they are back with me after the hols.

i just got rid of my triple and I'm so happy. Mind you means fridays are a double with a buggy board on - not sure it's any better apart from the storage

Which quad did you have? Never heard of this!
Got a graco stadium duo with buggy pod.

I have the twin/triple (converts) version of this. I also have a trapped nerve, so ease and comfort do matter. It's a real joy to push cos it has an adjustable grip and pneumatic tyres.

Honestly, I'd rather push this with 2-3 lo's in that 1 in a single buggy with solid tyres.

**JCrakers** · 14-09-2012, 08:26 AM

OMG.. I hope I never have to push one of those

My back hurts just looking at he picture

**gegele** · 14-09-2012, 08:32 AM

out and about nipper is a joy! i was really struggling with old double with little wheels and now with my big wheel i barely know i'm pushing a buggy

big wheels are the answer, pneumatic great stuff

Ive just bought this quad. its easier to push than my old double and I can also use it as a triple or double. Only problem is I live at the top of a steep hill and thats when any pushchair hurts. Surely there must be some kind of mini motor out there. I'd love to invent one. Dragons den maybe.

**bec123** · 14-09-2012, 08:39 PM

My knee is absolutely killing me from pushing my double with a buggy board attached - think they've all put weight on during the summer hols! It never used to bother me but this last week I've been feeling the Pain!!!
