my dd was in a stroller until she was 3.5 (we live in the city and walk a lot). At 2.5 I would think so but also it depends on the dc. You can get the combi or aria for lightweight side by side (my sis has twins). I've seen others use the phil and ted but many aren't fans. Sorry I'm not being much help. [ Reply | More

My best friend died of aids 15 yrs ago & I named my son after him. After my Mom died six years ago I gave birth to twins so I always said she was such a big life that it took two to replace her. I do feel they live on somewhat in my children & certainly through me. I would not be the person I am today without them so every day I am here, they are too at least a little bit. It is wonderful that you were so close to your mom but she would have wanted you to focus on your life and your family's not on her passing - would you want your children be mired in that pain?

I've really recovered and don't feel mired in the pain, but every once in a while, I just have a day that I miss her so much I could just scream. It still seems unreal to me.
