In general, a newborn pram is ideal for babies six months and under. However, every child reaches developmental stages in their own time, so you should only graduate to a reclined stroller or pushchair when they can hold their heads up unassisted. Here you’ll find essential parts like a pram carrycot and pram bassinet for your baby to lie in comfort during a family day out. So, whether you’re looking for a BABYZEN, Noordi, or Joolz pram, we’ll help you find exactly what your growing family needs. Running form: Aim to maintain an upright posture and resist the temptation to to lean over the handlebars. The reclining positions work great as there are different options; my baby loves being nosey, so the upright position was definitely his favourite, and he loved holding onto the bumper bar to get a better position to see! However, the low reclining position is also amazing when your baby has a nap. The seat is soft and comfortable for the baby, and its roomy too! My little boy always looks so cosy and content when he was in it. Take it slow: It’s best to start things off slowly and gradually increase your pace as you become more comfortable with running with your child in tow. I used an Out nAbout Nipper Sport from birth - it's my only buggy. If you like running, it's a better model than the 360" - Mumsnet user, CornishmumofoneAnother hazard of buggy running is chilly digits. During the winter or even early morning springtime runs, your hand resting on the buggy handlebars is likely to feel the cold, so treat yourself to a cosy fleece muff. • Cup holder Persevere: 'Running with a buggy is harder than without, but it gets easier the more you do it so don’t be put off!' says Wendy. Steering: Includes a fixed front wheel so you can lean into corners, providing more stability over rough terrain If you opt for a pushchair without a huge amount of storage space underneath or you simply have lots to carry, it's worth buying buggy clips to hook shopping bags onto the bars. • Pushchair fleece hand muff

The one-hand recline is handy for dealing with snoozing babies mid-run and the supportive padded seat offers a smooth ride. It’s almost ready to go straight from the box as the seat comes attached to the frame but you’ll need to use a bike pump to inflate the wheels before popping them on the chassis. It’s pricey but it’s well engineered, extremely sturdy and very easy for runners and walkers to manoeuvre. Suitable from: Six months to 22kg (around four years) | Weight: 9.8kg | Folded dimensions: 61 x 61 x 104cm | Harness type: 5-point | Adjustable handlebar: Yes What we like I love our double Nipper and used it from newborn with the newborn insert. Be aware that as they are real tyres they can get punctures, so be prepared to have to fix them" - Mumsnet user, Postmanbear Suitable from: Birth to 22kg (around four years) | Weight: 10.8kg | Folded dimensions: 88 x 60 x 44 cm | Harness type: 5-point | Adjustable handlebar: Yes What we likeWe tend to use this buggy for off-road walks. We live close to lots of woodland walks, and this buggy has been a godsend as it has allowed us to take our baby out on the bumpy paths and grassy areas. The buggy is comfortable to push – easy to manoeuvre around - it is just the right weight, not too heavy but sturdy when out, especially on uneven ground. It is smooth to push and easy to steer, handles kerbs and bumps with ease. The tyres are air filled and strong. It is a good size too, not too clumpy and big, but roomy for the baby. Suitable from: Birth to 22kg (around four years) | Weight: 11.5kg | Folded dimensions: 87 x 69 x 34 cm | Harness type: 5-point | Adjustable handlebar: Yes What we like As a running buggy, it’s a sturdy piece of kit with a suspension that can be adjusted to suit all running terrains - hello bumpy forest trails! The comfy padded seat (with five-point harness) offers a smooth ride and has plenty of room for kids of all sizes. There’s a rear light for added safety on grey days and adjustable airflow vents for sunny ones. Running buggies can be an expensive business and the Chariot Cross from Thule is at the top end of the spectrum. But you get what you pay for, and when you consider cost per use plus functionality, this premium piece of kit takes kiddy transportation up a notch. As well as being a smooth and comfortable ride for runners, it's designed for cycling, walking and even skiing too. Thanks to the brand's VersaWing system, you can switch easily between activities with a few small adjustments (although you do need to buy the skis separately) and it performs equally well across all terrains.
