In 9 – 11 weeks we will
All being well
Bring our baby daughter home
Setting anxiety and panic aside
It is time to start making plans
We have settled on a name
Now we need to decide on a pram
We currently have an Easywalker Duo
That my parents bought for us when Esther and William were born
Nearly 7 years ago
We have our beloved BOB
And we still have Bea’s pink Ooba
(which I thought we had given away)
The problem is that none of them are quite right
None of them entirely fit our needs anymore
The Duo is very heavy and very large
I am not sure that we have room for it in our car
With four children and all our belongings
When David is with us it could be tied onto the roof
But there is no way I would be able to get it up there on my own
The other thing is that I remember the adaptors for using a carry cot
Were not the easiest to use
And I need things to be easy
This last time
With this last baby
I want and need things to be easy
The BOB that we all adore
Is not really suitable for a newborn
It can be adapted with a carry cot
And though I am sure it is perfectly practical
It does not look very pretty
This is David’s preferred option
He has never liked a pushchair
As much as he likes the BOB
It is perfect for cross country rambling
And off and on road running
It has been wonderful for Bea
For all our family
The pink Ooba is a beautiful pram
Very pretty indeed
But it is not all terrain
Ours is as an early model
And does not have all terrain wheels
As the Cosatto Ooba does now
So while this is a very pretty pram indeed
It is not practical for the home educating
Much more outdoorsy life
That we now lead
And so a new pram is needed
One that does all that we need it to do
As a family out and about all days
Working and playing all ways
Making tracks across all terrains
As a large family
A busy family
A young and growing family
A new pram is needed
For our last baby
So that we may all make the very most
Of this last cherished addition to our family
Here are some of the all terrain prams
That have caught my eye
The Stokke Trailz is a gorgeous pram
One I have had my eye on since it’s release
The carrycot and seat are highly positioned
Making this pram perfect for older mums like me
With lower back problems
Also perfect for maintaining eye contact with your little one
I love parent facing prams designed to open communication
Between parent and child
The all terrain tyres and suspension
Make a smooth ride for baby
Wherever adventures may lead
Cosatto Ooba All Terrain
The Ooba has been redesigned since we reviewed Bea’s
It now has all terrain wheels
And all round suspension
Making it easier to have an Ooba adventure
Anywhere your family chooses to take you
I love the height of the seat on the Ooba
It is also easy to switch between carry cot and seat
The Ooba is light
So easy for me to lift when out and about on my own
I absolutely adore the new Fox Tale design
I have always loved the look of iCandy prams
I have never had the opportunity to try one
And I would love to
The iCandy Peach All Terrain could be perfect for us
It is designed for performance
And also to turn heads
The carry cot means that the Peach is suitable from birth
It sounds easy to fold
Looks easy to change the seat unit
I think it could go a long way
To making life with a little one easier
Wherever you are
And wherever you go
Silver Cross Surf Multi Terrain
Now this is a pram with our name on
Literally
This is a super stylish pram
A luxury carriage for a little one
I would love to road test
And off road test
The outstanding multi-terrain performance
I think as a family we could really put a pram like this
Through it’s paces
Apparently it folds really small
And the wheels are easy to take off if needed
The Henley carrycot looks so comfy for a new baby
Being taken out and about on family ventures
The Surf is a stunning looking pram
David’s pram of choice
Would be adding a carry cot to our BOB Revolution Pro
While I do adore the BOB
And agree it is the best pram we have had
David can run with it
On and off road
It works in the woods
Goes on the beach
Is great for tracks
And roaming across the fields that surround where we live
It also carries an awful lot of stuff
But it just does not look very nice
With the carry cot attached
And I would look a nice looking pram
This is going to be our last pram
For our last baby
I would like it to meet all of our criteria
Including being nice to push round town
As well as across country
In 9 – 11 weeks we will
All being well
Bring our baby daughter home
Setting anxiety and panic aside
It is time to start making plans
We have settled on a name
Now we need to decide on a pram
Do you have an all terrain pram?
Is there one you would recommend?
We have the iCandy Peach All Terrain and love it. It’s folds down really quite small (smaller than our urban pushchair). It manages trips to the woods, forests, theme parks and everyday life. Not used it with a carrycot but I would imagine the ride would be just as comfortable and the carrycot can be used as a moses basket too.

Ooooh thank you so much for this. I will have a read and will definitely visit the iCandy stand at The Baby Show x
Hi there I have the Icandy peach not the all terrain version, the 4 wheeled version. I absolutely love it. It’s so easy to take the seat/pram top off and lift it into the boot. It’s also light and easy to manage. I’ve used it in forest parks, beaches and on rural country roads and my little girl always seemed so comfortable. We used it until she was 2.5. I have just ordered a new mattress for the pram top as I am due my second baby in 8 weeks. I cannot wait to use it again. Best of luck with whatever pram you choose
