Is it just my DH, or a Holden stroller thing....??
I cannot push my baby in the stroller...Im not allowed to...DH takes over, from the minute it is outta the car til we get back....He refuses to hand the stroller over...it is HIS domain....
what is with that???
I have to feign a sore back (well actually i did have one yest) or go out without him to get my hands on the stroller....he even refused to let his mother touch it at wedding the other day!
Are all the DHs like that??? DH Stroller possession sydrome - a new disease taking over the country???

Hubby over here actually always carried McKayla in the Kango pouch and he loves pushing the stroller as well but rather wants to carry her.
He says I have her most of the day so that is his special time with his girl.
He also told me straight out that he does bathtime (that was when I was pregnant.) And I had to beg to bath my daughter sometimes.

Oh my gosh...same here. MY DP will NOT let me push the pram! We brought a pram that has a adjustable handle as I am shorter than him, so we spent a little more....I now wonder why we bothered!

Same problem here! We bought a grey Phil&Ted double pushchair, and every time we go out as a family Nat has to push the boys! If I try to have a turn he actually sulks!

I have the big strong man, but not the kind that pushes strollers...that is a woman's job (version according to Willie)

We take turns pushing it when we are out. I know Dh would prefer to push it all the time but its easier for him to chase after Andrew if he runs too far in front of us. I find it so much easier to push it as it helps my back (and its very sore) for some strange reason. I also make him carry the capsule (even more so now) it is so heavy. DH also has his time with Andrew at night - he puts him into bed every night and reads a story to him. maybe to him thats his special time with her.

Well you guys are all nuts!!  lol
When we go out for a walk I get DH to take over pushing - and he does enjoy it - so I can have a little break! I guess it's one of those male-bonding things we'll never understand, like how they don't like to hang around and chat but they like to do things with people.... I guess?
