Well being male the first thing that i thought about was transport as I don't drive it makes life difficult. Initially I thought that I would be able to get a seat for the back of my tricycle but on searching the Internet I found this the taga bike. It is a bike which as you can see the child is in fronnt of you so you can see them at all times while on your jorney plus get the chance to see what you see.
Where this bike is different is that when you get into town it converts into a pram thrrough the simple action of flipping the back wheel forward then re attaching the baby seat and you walk into your shop of choice.
My wife Elizabeth was dubious at first but later realised and accepted that it will be good for me as gives me the independence with the child that I need and means I can get about as well.
Well the next thing is saving up for it at £1600 its not cheap but I think its going to be worth it
I have found a place locally who supply this wonderful machine so will be going there hopefully soon to see if I can use it one handed fingers crossed
I think you are an extraordinary person and will make a fab dad, you have always coped so well with what life has dealt you and will continue to cope through your most wonderful creation of a baby!! Keep up blogging to inspire others in your situation with you infectious enthusiasm and endless positivity in the face of many obsticles!! xx
