Just starting to research car seats/strollers/travel systems..
Should I go with a travel system that comes with the stroller and infant car seat OR
A car seat that fits into whatever stroller OR WHAT? 😝
I want to get a system that I'm gonna get the most use out of. Kids obviously still need car seats after 35lbs, so do you buy a new car seat at that point and then they just sit in the stroller as is?
I don't know how these things work. Thanks!!
I like that one too! @sam.g . But I think I want a jogger style one.
My husband did all the research on this one. He got the Chicco Key Fit 30 also. In a nice teal color.
Okay cool, thanks guys! Any jogger stroller recommendations? @klarrissab @carterclaytonb
Yeah once they grow out of an infant car seat you get a convertible car seat. But you can even just buy a convertible one from the beginning. The only reason people opt for infant carriers is so they don't have to physically remove a sleeping newborn from a car seat and transfer baby into the stroller. But yes even newborns can sit in a stroller. They have straps and the seats recline. Some even recline flat more like a bassinet. I'm getting a stroller that doesn't make car seats but I can get adapters so that another brand infant seat will snap into it. It all just depends on what stroller you want and what works best for you and your budget.
Most infant car seats say 30-35 lbs but my son just hit 30 lbs at 3 years old and I wasn't going to make him stay in an infant seat. Lol. I switched him to the rear facing convertible car seat around 10months. They're supposed to stay rear facing until 2yrs old. And yes. As long as they can support their heads they're fine and most strollers have shoulder and lap buckles. And they recline to accommodate babies who can't sit alone yet.
At about what age do they grow out of the infant car seat? And can they sit safely in just the stroller at that point? @carterclaytonb
I got a Chicco key fit 30 travel system and I love it. When my son out grew the little car seat we got a convertible graco car seat and just used the stroller with out the infant seat starting around 4-5 months.
ladies, help! I was almost 100% sure I found a travel system, but put it on layaway due to the following... I'm due dec. 8th and most likely won't be using a stroller until February/March when it's a bit warmer. I figure I can just baby wear, or carry her in her infant seat, since we won't be outside much. In the interest of saving money, should I just buy a car seat now and worry about a stroller later? Or does it make sense to get the whole travel system and be done with it?

Has anyone used this travel system?? Can you just easily put the car seat right on the stroller??
I got a car seat from a friend and a stroller online the carseat fits in the stroller but the shade won't close :( get a smaller car seat or keep it ?
babytrend travel system....car seat/stroller... or gracco????? need to make a decision today lol

Its a 3 piece travel system, heres how the car seat looks on the stroller base
I have a graco jogger. They are nice. And they have travel system ones. My niece has one and they seem pretty happy with it.
