Yesterday was the shortest ever!!! we went out to meet other mum friends at the meadows in town and i started pushing her 30 minutes that it takes to get to town. At 25 min she slept and then she woke up after 10 MINUTES!! I panicked thinking 'now she is gonna be cranky', well she didn't and we ended up having a lovely afternoon, feeding the ducks and picnicking with friends and babies. She still slept from 7.30 till 7.
Jen114, I guess you'll have to miss out in South Africa or take in turns with DH, unless you can trust a friend to babysit. Have you thought of having a travel cot to have at your friends house, I do this when i go to visit my sisters in Manchester.
I hope someone comes out with a magic answer to this nap in the stroller issue!! Good luck to all.
