what kind of stroller.....twins and 2 1/2 year old

im just trying to figure out how im going to get around with 3 kids when they all need(or want) to be in a stroller.

i have been researching triple strollers and they all seem to be huge and bulky and hard to steer.

is it possible to 'wear' one of the twins in a carrier and push the other twin and my daughter in a double stroller? or is that making it more difficult.

i feel like im never going to leave the house Chat Icon

I know some ppl do the double City mini and a boogie board behind, which the 2 1/2 yr old can stand on.

My DD was 3 and didnt want any part of the stroller so she walked.

We just bought a double city mini for my twins who will be 20 months when this baby is born next month, and we have a single city mini for this baby. We'll use these when we are out together. When I go out alone, or IF i go out alone with all three, my plan was to use the double stroller for the twins and a carrier for the baby.

I used a valco twin stroller and bought a third toddler seat that attached on the front.

I have this triple stroller for my triplets. It is extremely light weight, and not too oversize. I can fit through any double doors, as for a typical size single door, I can only fit sideways. i try to avoid this places when I am out with them by myself...of it its busy enough like a pizzeria, I just ask one of the men behind the counter to help me life the stroller to carry in sideways (its very light weight). The stroller is also only sold in Europe. So that was annoying that I had to pay $150 shipping. But besides those 2 complaints (there will always be complaints with a triplet stroller)...I really do like it. I believe its good for children up to 45lbs or 50lbs each seat!!
