The wonderful thing about an almost-nine-month old is that fabulous head control that just screams “put me in a baby jogger and let’s see how fast this thing can go.”
This weekend, I had the very real pleasure of sending my husband out for a run with not one baby, but both!! I had a full extra half hour of near-sleep (after loading everyone up and making some mini waffles for the road) and a luxurious, uninterrupted shower so I could start making pancakes and bacon without anyone crawling up my leg. Yay!
Send your partner out for a short run with the jogging stroller and you can catch up on sleep, phone calls, or reading. Make sure to check with your pediatrician before the first trip for any safety tips.

I love this idea. I really loved the idea of getting someone else to do it for me while I sleep. That’s too cute.
taking a baby for a walk or jog is great for everyone. the baby gets some fresh air, or maybe a nap and the parent gets the freedom of wind in their hair and feeling accomplished.
my pediatrician advices no jogging strollers until their 4 months old…so until then, just a casual walk around the block in a traditional stroller is best.
