Infant Strollers

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months

I am a bit confused by infant strollers. The only ones I see are the travel systems where the baby has to use only the car seat for up to 6 months to be taken around.

 

I thought it was bad for babies to be in car seats for longer than 2 hours at a time. Ie. bad for their spine and also for breathing.

 The only alternatives are the ones with a carry cot which are $1000.... can someone please advise me better as I am very confused right about now.

 

Thanks

    As long as the seat lies flat you can put an infant in it.  The Chicco Cortina is one that lies flat and can be used without the car seat.

    eta: you don't have to use the car seat with a travel system for 6 months...once they have head/neck control you can recline them in the seat.

    We have the Graco Ipo Deluxe umbrella stroller. It's really nice and has all the features of a full size stroller. The seat lies flat and we've used it since DD was just a few weeks old. It was only $99. We love it.
