Double Stroller Question

I will have 2U2 in May. DS will be 19 months old when this LO is born.  I am currently looking at the City Mini Double stroller with an adaptor for our carseat. I thought although pricey that might be our best option.

I was curious (from other moms) if it would be best to get a double stroller that works with our carseat or if it would be easier to get something like the Joovy Scooter X 2 or a double umbrella like the Graco that will fit more easily into cars. I know I probably won't be going out with the 2 of them a lot for the first few months.

Re: Double Stroller Question

  • I have the city mini double and really love it, but the infant car seat adaptor is horrible. I returned it and ended up putting my DS right in the troller with it all the way reclined starting about 6-8 weeks

  • I'd go check out the strollers and see what you like the feel of first and check out the folds to see what will be easy for you to get in your car. If what you like best isn't great for the first few months you could wear LO2 and use your single for LO1.

  • Baby jogger just released new car seat adapters that are MUCH nicer than the previous ones. If I didn't already have a cs I would get the cm double when getting ready for a second baby, they are awesome
