Hiya,
Just wanting to pick people's brains about travelling.
I'm possibly getting a last minute deal abroad to Cyprus. I've got a sling for Sprog, but I'm worried about him overheating if I use it all the time, so I'm thinking about taking his pram. The only problem is that it's a Bugaboo Cameleon, and a) it's big and b) I'm terrified about it getting lost/damaged!
The only options I can think of are either to buy a travel bag for it, which is £90 (eek!) or a small, cheap pushchair. I'm going to be travelling alone, too, so I need to be able to manage Sprog, handluggage, pram, etc alone...
Sprog's just over 3 months, so is still in the carrycot of the Bugaboo. If I were to get a cheap pushchair, can anyone give me a recommendation? I've no idea what's suitable for his age (nearly 15 weeks)
Also, any tips foir while I'm over there? It's going to be HOT, and while I'm not going to be out in the sun with him (I'm not a beachperson or a sunfreak myself, and I'm visiting relatives, so will mainly be in their house) but I'm neurotic about him overheating. Will he be okay in just vests, or would he be better in loose t-shirts? And where can I find loose, thin trousers now that the summer stuff's gone off the shelves!? He's breastfed, so I think I'm just going to be feeding him LOADS to keep him hydrated.
Maybe a last minute deal isn't a good thing, I can feel a mass panic coming on!
