[blparent] [Bulk] Re: double strollers?

Thank you for the description of the sit&stand. I thought the stand part
was in the back or something. 
Still, if Amber's hands are literally full with the younger baby, and
Shawn decides to escape, there won't be much she can do. 
My vote is on a double stroller. 
Amber, you may want to talk to the Parents Of Mutiples group. You're not
quite in their demographic but they may have some options.

Hi,

The stroller that is being talked about here is one where the older
child would be right under you're hands when you're pulling the
stroller, so you would know if they moved unless you were a very
unobservant person.  Your idea of having one child on your chest and one
on your back may work but I don't think it would be a safe thing to do.
If either child needed help how would you get to them and help them
without putting the other child in an unsafe situation.  There are
usually lots of straps on those carriers and it would be very combersome
to put both cariers on and both kids in them.  If you had slings it
might work better though.
