For those of you that are buying convertible car seats what are you doing to carry your infant around? With my last LO we had an infant car seat, which was great because while she was sleeping we just left her in her car seat and took her out to restaurants, family homes, among other places without having to remove her or wake her from her sleep. Another thing we did not have to carry her while we were out.
Those of you who are buying convertible car seats what are you doing in these types of situations?

I didn't buy an infant seat with DS. I wore him in the moby whenever we went out, and it was fine. If he was asleep in his carseat, it wasn't a big deal to wake him for a moment to put him in the moby, he would just fall right back to sleep. I also think strangers are less likely to try to touch your newborn when you're wearing him, than when he is in a seat or stroller.
We will be buying an infant seat this time around, but I don't intend to lug that thing around. I'm going to still wear the baby most of the time.

Carried them, wore or stroller. I prefer the convertible to the infant seat.
i plan to get the infant seat as DH wants a travel system.. so getting the Britax B safe and B agile travel system..
i plan to baby wear anyways.. but for the times LO is asleep in the car, the infant seat works best!
