Guest guest Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 When you are buying the stroller just imagine a bar from foot to foot (for during the DBB time). You don't want anything that you have to independently put a foot into (like a shoping cart). Our stoller had a seat belt that was fabric and you fastened it around the baby. The thing we had the hardest time finding was a high chair. ALL of them had that hard plastic bar when we were looking, but I've noticed teh styles aren't as much like that now. Happy shopping!

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 I would stay away from strollers that don't open completely up in the front to insert and/or remove the baby as trying to slide their casts down through leg=holes can be tricky, but pulling them back out through the leg-holes is even worse. And when your baby wears the DBB of course you can't slip his/her legs through anything at all, so go with straps. Congratulations on your new arrival!

See my other question about the doctor. > I would stay away from strollers that don't open completely up in the front to insert and/or remove the baby as trying to slide their casts down through leg=holes can be tricky, but pulling them back out through the leg-holes is even worse.
