Phil &Teds question... How old was your baby when you moved them to the 2nd seat?

Just that really... My youngest is fine if a little cramped in the bottom but my toddler still needs to nap and the lack of recline is an issue. (He only naps in the pram, I gave up on the cot long ago)

What do I do...? Stick it out until we can switch to the 2xtoddler configuration (and do I really need to wait until 6 months!!!) or buy (yet another) pram for these early months?

Any advice from phil and teds owners much appreciated.

Sitting independently, around 5 months. But my older one could nap in the top seat of a Sport. Is there no zip on the back of the seat to recline it?

Yes there is a recline, but not in the newborn/toddler mode, only the toddler/toddler mode, does that make sense...?

I had an old Sport & also switched over at just before 5 months. My eldest was also a buggy only napper when her little sister arrived. When you're in baby/toddler mode on the Sport you have the additional seat clipped on the front & I seem to remember it zipped down a bit at the sides to recline just enough for my eldest to doze. I'd also kept hold of my single Maclaren so did some walks with eldest in that & little one in sling, depending on where/how far I was going. It is a bit of a design flaw I think but it's for a v short time so personally I reckon not worth investing in buggy no 3!

I didn't realise that it wasn't meant to recline in the newborn/toddler mode. I unzipped the top toddler seat anyway and that did the trick for us. I only used the double for about 6 months each time as I didn't get on with it in toddler/toddler mode.

I think they must have changed the second seat. Mine doesn't have a zip. Oh well, will persevere!
