3. Do babies need more than one stroller?

One baby stroller is enough since it is a complete luxury. Rather than having several sizes of strollers, it is better to use a well-made and well-built stroller. 

4. Is it okay to let the baby sleep in a stroller?

Yes, it is definitely safe for your little one to sleep in his stroller. However, as for newborns, it is better to let them sleep in a bassinet kind-of-stroller which allows them to lay flat. While for older babies, a traditional style stroller is safe enough for them to take a quick nap. 

5. Are strollers bad for babies?

No, it is not. However, here are five elements that you need to know to keep your baby safe in a baby stroller.

These five suggestions are made by The Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA):

• Stability: You must ensure that the baby stroller is stable where it has a wide base to support your baby and not easily tip over if your baby leans over to the side or moves in it. Plus, the seat must recline with your child and should not tip backwards.

• Seat belts: Make sure your baby is strapped in all the time. Good strollers are equipped with a three- or five-point harness.

• Locking: When you are using the strollers, make sure that the folding mechanism is locked so it would not accidentally collapse and always lock the wheels and apply the brakes when the wheels are not rolling. 

• Little Fingers: Before unfolding or folding the baby stroller, always double-check your baby's fingers are not anywhere near the strollers.

• Single Function: This is the most tempting thing that parents always do; a stroller is also your shopping cart. Avoid hanging your purse or shopping bags over the stroller's handles. Imbalance weight can cause it to tip over backwards.
