I am obsessing over strollers and need help!

Since last night all I have done is obsess over getting a new stroller. Problem is - I feel like I have so many strollers as it is:
Metrolite
Maclaren
Jogger
Snap and Go

I also may need a double stroller down the road - who knows - so that would be another one to get. I am in love with some of the double ones - they make me want to have another baby right now! J/K!

I can very easily see if Jack likes the Metrolite again - but instead - I'm drooling over the Britax that Karen posted (thanks alot Karen

It's not the money but more I'm thinking - do I REALLY need this now???

PLEASE LADIES - Talk some sense into me. Make me stop!!!!! I have been online looking at strollers all last night and this morning! Chat Icon Chat Icon

I need help! Make me sane again!

YOu have TOO many now. Try the Metrolite again....Its a lightweight. It could just be JAcks Age. Try to remember that everything is just a phase.

Just because he doesnt like the Maclaren NOW, doesnt mean in 2 months he wont love it.

Nothings final when it happens with Toddlers.

Do you use all of the ones you have? Specifically the jogger? If not maybe return it and get one that you want more. Although I think jacks aversion to the mall will pass and you won't need that one posted yesterday either .

Diana, I have ONE stoller, its my Britax Preview that was only $60 (or less, I had a coupon) and it the best thing ever.

Im in the market for a Combi just cause its a lightweight stroller, like an umbrella one...but with a tad more features.

UH, you do not need more strollers Chat Icon

In my opinon, you already have too many strollers!! Chat Icon

Thomas is 13 months and I have only had one stroller this whole time!! I love my Peg Pliko P3. I haven't needed another stroller. As Smiley said, I may buy something like a Combi lightweight as Thomas gets older for quick trips, but I'm not even sure it's necessary.

Find something else to obsess about!!

I should have bought a Peg back in the day but didn't - want to kick myself over that one.

Ok - you are all helping me get over it!

Keep it coming!

You don't need another one. They take up too much space and in a few years strollers will be a thing of the pastChat Icon

You have a lot, as do I.
I have the travel system, Snap N Go, and a Chicco stroller. Then, I started babysitting and now have a double stroller to add!
The Chicco is nice! It's light. Only downside, no snack tray, but, I still love it. It stays in my car! The Snap N Go is up in our attic, the carriage is out on our patio (our patio is covered) and the double stroller is in our foyerChat Icon

Diana, you do NOT need any more strollers! Like another poster said, Jack may start to like the stroller a month or 2 from now. Go back to the one he originally liked.Chat Icon Chat Icon

You don't need another stroller - I go thru this with DD she will rarely go into her Maclaren but loves her Zippy. A lot of it is that Jack is at an age when he doesn't want to just sit in a stroller. I would try the metrolite for a while and if it doesn't work then maybe try a stroller. But try the naps and the snacks/toys for distraction in the metrolite first.

BTW not sure if it will help but DD hates riding facing me - I had to stop using the snap n go b.c she would always try to turn around and scream for me to hold her - if I switched to the zippy she would immediately get better. So you might want to try that before getting one that faces you (unless it can be reversed to also face out)
