There aren't many things more exciting than hearing that you're expecting your second child. Preparing your family for the new baby can be difficult.

Selecting the best prams double pram is one of them. This article will discuss what options are available and also provide suggestions to help you select the right pram for your growing family.

Convertible double prams

If you're looking for a baby stroller that can adapt to your family, a convertible single double pram is a great alternative. These clever frames, such as the Cybex Aton 4 Twin, expand widthways to accommodate a second seat. They usually come with the option of adding an additional shopping basket or two car seats or carrycots (with upper adapters and lower adapters available) so that you can start your family with one buggy and later upgrade to twins without needing to purchase a new one and again. They usually have more configurations and seating options for both children than other styles of double prams, and offer better weight distribution, so they are generally easier to maneuver. Pros: Easy to use, compact and versatile. Cons: Less space and storage space for both children and parents in comparison to other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

The name suggests that tandem prams have two bassinets or seats for prams that are aligned one ahead of the other. Tandem prams are generally narrower than side by side double prams and can be easier to manoeuvre through doors and on public transport. They do not have the same amount of storage space and can be difficult to access when both seats are being used, especially when your child is in the front seat.

Some first-time parents choose a tandem pram to future-proof their investment, especially if they're planning on more children that are similar in age. Our DUO2 pram is a well-known model. It starts out as an individual buggy, but can be upgraded to a twin stroller by adding a second seat. It is also possible to convert it to a single stroller if your older child outgrows the buggy.

Tandem prams are available in a variety of designs with the option of infants to sleep in a pram bassinet on top while an older child sits in the seat below. The majority of tandem prams can be made a travel system by adding a car capsule in the top seat.

A side-by-side double stroller allows both children to share a ride and talk as they go. This will help prevent them from waking eachother up.

A side-by-side can be the perfect choice for grandparents who want to get in on the fun - they can both push the kids around and assist with shopping, running errands, or attending events. They are usually less expensive than tandem prams, making them a great choice for grandparents to help with babysitting.

Single prams

A single pram is only able to accommodate one seat or a bassinet/carry-cot. It is suitable for newborns up to about 4 years old. age. Four years old. Many single prams also allow a toddler's board to be attached to the back of the stroller, so that the second child can stand or sit (depending on the kind of toddler board) while you push the stroller through.

Some first-time parents decide to secure their pram for the future purchase by purchasing a double option, such as our DUO2. It can be used in single mode until the time you have your second child, and then convert it into a tandem double pram when the second baby arrives. This saves you the cost and stress of purchasing an additional double pram.

Tandem or in-line double prams are a bit larger than side by side double prams, but they are more maneuverable on footpaths and in shops. However, they can be more difficult to use during running pushchair and will require more effort to push when you're going up or down hills.

Side by side prams are larger than tandem or in-line double prams, but they are a good choice if you plan to have two children of similar age. The children will be able to see and interact with each other from their seats. However, they are less maneuverable and could not pass through doorways that are standard as tandem strollers.

Non-convertible side by side prams cannot be used in single mode. You must purchase a different pram or triple stroller for your smaller child. However, they have the advantage of being a cheaper option and will last for longer than convertible double prams, as they are not built to be used in both single and double modes. The main drawback is that your older child will soon outgrow the side-byside seats and will require to be moved to a toddler's chair, which can be costly.
