FOR A NEWBORN BABY
When the baby is born, we must get a special stroller, since they are smaller than those for older children and, in addition, they are ergonomically adapted to the needs of the newborn. Therefore, these seats will only have one position, which will be horizontal , since the baby still cannot keep his head straight by himself and he can stretch comfortably in it. In addition, these baby strollers are built in such a way that the baby is very protected, as long as he cannot get out or hit something.
Finally, this baby chair can also become a basket or a car seat, that is, we can take the baby inside the stroller with wheels or disassemble it and carry it by weight. Many of these newborn seats are now adapted to become car seats , so the baby will not have to be moved from the stroller . Simply, put the belt over it as indicated by the legislation and it will be just as protected as when it is sitting in the baby stroller with wheels.
FROM SIX MONTHS
It depends on the development of the child, but normally after six months the baby goes from the newborn car to the stroller. This is shaped like a conventional chair, since the baby is now sitting and not lying down most of the time . However, many of these chairs also have an almost horizontal position, since the backrest can be pushed back, as much as the mother agrees and for the comfort of the child.
There are more complete and simpler chairs. The older the baby gets, the lighter these chairs are, since the baby grows stronger and wants to interact more with the world. Winter strollers are more ergonomic and heavier than summer strollers , as well as having protection from the rain or cold. Summer strollers are lighter, but also simpler. It is very important that both baby carriages have space to place the items that the mother will need to care for the little one and a cover on the upper part in order to cover the baby if the sun is very strong, if it rains or if, simply, you need to get some sleep.
It depends on how much you want to spend, you will find that there are more or less resistant strollers, in many shapes and colors and with different qualities. The most successful thing is to make an investment in the newborn baby stroller , since the child will be very fragile and we do not want that because of a cheap seat it can hurt itself. On the other hand, the older the child gets, the more resistant it will become, so you don’t have to spend so much money on the stroller from six months .
However, if you have the idea of having more children , perhaps you should think about having a good one for a long time, because children can sit in the stroller until they are 2 or 3 years old (depending on each case individually).
Thus, there are also larger strollers, since perhaps the one from six months to two years has already been too small. It is always advisable to buy a baby stroller older than the age of the little one, always keeping it comfortable and adjusted, so that it lasts much longer.
The seat has to be for the comfort of the baby, but also for the parents, because they will be the ones who will push it most of the time. Simply, go to the store, try the one that seems most comfortable for you and do not hesitate to ask the professionals for advice , who will be able to advise you better than anyone on the advantages of each baby stroller and which one is the most suitable for your particular situation. .
