moms with 2 children
Do you recommend a double stroller that is Tandem, or side by side? I have a 2nd kid on the way and I'm not sure of the advantages of either. I appreciate any suggestions.
TIA

I prefer tandem. I have the Phil & Teds Sport with the doubles kit and a Sit and Stand. I love the P&T! It's just like pushing a single and I think it's actually more easily maneuverable than my Peg Perego Pliko. I use the Sit and Stand whenever I need to run in somewhere quick and want to leave DD in the carseat.

We just got the tandem Sit N Stand Plus. It's a double stroller that you can convert to a sit n stand when your older child is ready for that. Best of both world IMO. I test drove it at Target and I liked it.

I liked tandem when my ds was an infant so that my daughter couldn't poke at him. She was 16 months when he was born and some days jealousy was an issue for us.

I like side by side - I can see both kids, and no one has to sit in the back.

I actually thought that I didnt like side by side, but when I went to the store, I really liked how it handled, and how light it was. My parents are getting the tandem stroller, so we will have the best of both worlds!

This is also why I got a tandem (mine are almost 2 years apart but for the same reason). I also got a side by side jogger for when DS2 is a little older.
