Our DD just turned 3. It's rare that we use a stroller when we go out, but we do when we go on walks, travel etc. I had not even thought of a double stroller until I saw my neighbor the other day pushing hers (she has a 3 yr old DD and an infant).
I started thinking today how it will be nice to start walking after having the baby (I am athletic and will walk for the 6 weeks until I can start running). We have a trip to Disney planned in Sept - we were going to just do the snap and go and an umbrella. Do you think we should invest in a double stroller? Or should I just look into the standing one? or am I fine without one? I do work F/T so I will be returning to work 3 months after delivery. Any recs?
TIA
Re: Double Stroller ? - Mom's having their 2nd+ child
Does the graco carrier fit on those?
I'm looking at these on CL. I'm also looking at the Baby Trend Sit n Stands - they seem to sell for a lot less around here. I don't foresee us using it that much, but it will be good for trips to the zoo, traveling, etc.
nope... is there anything that fits the graco snug ride besides graco ? wtf!

We just recently (yesterday acutally) got the bumbleride twin indie. It's roomie enough for DS (2.5 years), and also has the ability to fit our britax carseat on the other side.
It's a bit wide, and heavy, so I see us using it mainly for walks, or Disney (we live close.) I'm also thinking about getting a sit-n-stand for daily use.
This is good to know! Thanks!
My DD will be 18 months when LO arrives so my situation is a little different. I have heard very mixed feedback about getting a double, even on the 2u2 board. So, I decided to get one off of Craigslist. It has taken probably 3 months of looking and being pretty picky but I finally found what I want.
We are picking it up tonight in fact!
My DS will be almost 3 when LO arrives, and I am getting a stroller. I SAH and walk/run almost daily, so it is a must for my sanity:) He is still really great about being in it. Plus we have lots of family day trips planned for the summer, and I know we will use it.
I have heard negative things about the sit-n-stands though...I think my DS would prefer to be IN the stroller enjoying a snack and he can get out and walk if need be.
Also, just an FYI if you are going to Disney...are you going to Disney World in FL? If so, they have stroller rentals that are GREAT! We just went in December and got one from MagicStrollers-I think it was $15 for the first day and $7 every day after that-and they have great quality ones too-we used City Mini Jogger while there. Much cheaper than renting from the parks, and easier than bringing to airport, etc.
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,

I just looked at the amazon listing and it does say that it is compatible with Graco Sungride. I can't speak from personal experience because I have a Chicco, but if it says it is, then I would assume it works.
