Well yesterday we went to look at prams/pushchairs. I had my heart set on the Jan Slalom Pro and we went along and tested one and all was well and good until we realised that the car seat although fits onto the pushchair chassis, it doesnt have a fixed base in the car - and you should have seen how the sale girl struggled to attach it in the car - there was no way the baby would have kept calm, and I know after a few weeks I would have been totally fed up with it - would have been fine if you didnt want to use the car very often!!
So we decided to look at different models, still all terrain as we live in the country and walk the dog etc....this time we asked to look at any that could be used as a travel system - but that also had a fixed base in the car for the child seat (I honestly didnt know how important having a fixed base was until yesterday).
Fell in love with the Icandy Apple Jogger - it comes as a pushchair - front or rear facing, and also comes with carrycot - the bonus being the maxicosi car seat (supposed to be one of the best on the market), also fits onto the chassis - and has a fixed base for the car - the car seat comes in about 20 different colours too!
So ladies what do you think??

I wish you lots of luck with your pram search - and think really hard about whats important to you before making any decisions!! We nearly spent a small fortune on something that wasnt really practical for our needs!
