Thread: Looking at strollers

What will you be using?
I will def use a snap n go to start with but do want to get a lightweight regular stroller too, and given that DH is tall I'd like it to have handles that can be made higher for when he's pushing. I have an old Pliko P3 from DS1 which i'm going to try and sell - it's very bulky and didn't love it...
Just curious if anyone has researched strollers, what you'll get?

I don't know if I'm getting anything other than an umbrella stroller. I have my carriers for when I want to carry him around when he's little.

I'm really thinking the baby jogger city select. Can be a single or double stroller and can attach a carseat for it. i will babywear too but I think it's nice when baby falls asleep in the carseat to be able to just snap the carseat to the stroller and go!

That looks nice but wow at the price LOL

I'm getting something really lightweight and easy to use AND a travel system. The travel system will live in the "family" car that DH and I will go out together in - the lightweight one will live in my car because I only have a 2 door and I'm not lugging a carseat out each time I need to get the baby out.

Some things are worth the money!!! haha. Since I have most of all the baby stuff I need since I just had a baby in 2011, I am spending the money on something nice that I will hopefully love! Although, if it's a girl, I am in trouble because I would need all new clothes. Yikes!

I'm planning to wear the baby a lot and my friend is letting me borrow her universal stroller frame. So I was thinking I would just get an umbrella stroller, but then I was told those are better for indoor and short outdoor outings. Is this true? DH and I are definitely not joggers, but we do take some lengthy strolls in the neighborhood and at the park on the weekends.

So then I started to look at jogging strollers and we just can't afford most of those. So then I found THIS. Has anyone used this one or know of someone who has? I like that it has the rubber wheels and think it could be better for our daily walks. The reviews are mixed, so I'm hesitant.

When we were pregnant with DD we went ahead and got the BJCS and let me say worth every penny! I bought a cheapy to travel with this summer, omg never again! $250 and my wrists were sprained for 2 weeks! When we got home we went to the store with the kids and the BJCS was a dream, I'll never cheat on it ever again!

Elizabeth, I was actually thinking of a Jeep stroller but I haven't ever had one. Hopefully someone else can shed a little light

Missbollinger1, I bet it is awesome! I just don't think my DH would go for it lol

We want a Baby Trend Sit N Stand Ultra. DD is small enough she doesn't walk a lot in the store...not productive, in the right direction, walking anyway. So, it will be good to sit her down and strap her in and the little baby can stay in her carseat and be snapped in.
