Mrs. Pham Khanh Ngoc's inquiry via email ([email protected]) from 18 Nguyen Trai, Thanh Xuan, Hanoi, revolves around whether to purchase a stroller for the baby or a baby carrier for optimal convenience.
Question: My baby is 3 months old, and I'm unsure whether to choose a carrier or a stroller. Financially, I can allocate between 1,000,000 VND to 1,500,000 VND for this. Can Kids advise me on whether to choose a carrier or a stroller for my baby, and if so, which type to buy?
Response: Dear Mrs. Khanh Ngoc, your 3-month-old baby prompts your dilemma of selecting either a sitting carrier or a stroller for better mobility. With your budget ranging from 1,000,000 VND to 1,500,000 VND, here's my advice for you:
Mrs. Khanh Ngoc's baby is now 3 months old. According to infant care experts, at this stage, using a baby stroller for outdoor walks, socializing, and observing surroundings is highly beneficial for the baby's brain development. Therefore, there's no need to worry about whether a 3-month-old can use a stroller.
Choosing between a carrier and a stroller for the baby poses its own pros and cons. However, in my opinion, opting for a stroller would be more practical. With your baby being 3 months old, although carrying your baby outside using a carrier is feasible for now, it won't be sustainable in a few months. You'll feel exhausted, and the baby might feel uncomfortable. Hence, I suggest getting a moderately priced carrier for occasional motorcycle rides or outdoor strolls and investing the rest of your budget in a stroller. With 1,500,000 VND, you can consider purchasing a Seebaby HongKong stroller, which offers various models to choose from.
For your 3-month-old baby, opt for strollers with 2-way reclining positions. In my opinion, the Seebaby T08 stroller is priced at 1,550,000 VND in the market but is currently on sale at Mytour for 1,295,000 VND. It's highly suitable for you with its design tailored for babies aged 0-3 years, plus its lightweight nature making it convenient for travel.
