DH and I are both over 6', so our baby will probably grow to be a kid with long legs. Is this something I need to take into consideration when choosing a stroller? I was looking at the Ingelsina Zippy but very open to suggestions

We bought an Uppa Baby Vista to use with our 3 ft tall almost 3 year old, and so far so good. I am 5'6" and DH is 6'. We love the adjustable handle too; another thing you shoudl take into consideration! Part of the reason we bought it (last month) was because I wanted a carriage style stroller that would work for her now as a toddler, but would also work for #2.

Look at the stroller's measurements. I call it the "Drop to Footrest" measurement. That will tell you how much legroom your child will have.

joggingstrollers.com has some comparison charts to show size. Zippy should be fine, most likely it is more of an issue when you look at a lightweight toddler stroller or jogger since those are both types you would look at when you child is considerably bigger.
