I need a buggy for a newborn

The Mamas & Papas Sola and Mima Kobi are just two of the many buggies for a newborn

If you’re looking for a buggy that’s suitable for a newborn, you have quite a few choices to make. There are a number of buggy options that can work from birth. The main ones are:

• A pram (which nowadays is most likely to be a pushchair with carrycot attached)

• A pushchair with carrycot

• A pushchair with a lie-flat seat

• A travel system

If you opt for a buggy with a lie-flat seat, you might also want it to have a reversible seat, so it can be rear facing (also called parent facing) as well as forward facing.
