How to choose a stroller for different ages?

A stroller is a must-have for every family with a newborn baby, but mothers and fathers are still confused about it.

Although the general standard for a baby stroller is 15KG, this weight is the average weight of a 3-year-old baby. Although most strollers can last from three to five years, buying just one stroller is not enough for your baby to travel.

Babies of different ages have different needs for strollers. In addition, everyone's living environment and travel methods are different, so you need to prepare at least 2-3 strollers to meet your baby's travel requirements.

So what are the essential functions for choosing a stroller for babies of different ages?

Can lie flat or choose to bring a carrycot

Babies from birth to 3 months old need a long sleep time, and the back spine is not fully developed and has no force-bearing capacity. Therefore, it is best for the stroller to be laid flat so that the baby can fall asleep at any time. Generally speaking, the angle of lying flat is between 170°-180°. European and American countries stipulate that the maximum angle of stroller seat adjustment must not exceed 180°, because the baby will choke on the milk when lying flat at 180 degrees, and it is easy for the baby to Exposure to cold wind can cause other discomforts.

When choosing a stroller for a baby, shock absorption is the most critical, because their brains and spines are immature, so shock absorption is very important for babies in this period.

Some mothers will choose a lightweight umbrella stroller for their baby because it is cheap and convenient. This is very wrong. Because the baby cannot sit up at this time, and the umbrella stroller can only sit up at 90°, which will make the baby very uncomfortable. Moreover, the umbrella stroller itself is light and the shock-absorbing function is not good enough, which will have a certain impact on the development of the baby's neck and back. The impact, especially if the baby's fontanel has not closed and the brain has not yet matured, if frequent vibrations and shaking will affect the baby's health.

It is best to choose a seat that can be adjusted in two directions. Not only can face-to-face communication between parents and children be increased, it will also give the baby a sufficient sense of security. Let the baby face the parents, and it can also facilitate long-term observation of the baby's status.
