Best City Stroller?

I have been dragging my feet to buy a stroller. We don’t have a car and live in a one floor walk up in sunset park, I plan on taking the train a lot and was wondering if anyone has a stroller recommendation? Preferably one that can be collapsed for storage for daycare drop off

Has anyone moved their babies into the next size of car seat yet? I know we can be in our infant one till 30lbs but my baby is starting to HATE his car seat and is trying to lean forward. I think he doesn’t like leaning so far back.

I’m worried he’s going to hurt himself! But also it’s making car rides unbearable. But I’m not sure he’s really ready. Even though the other car seats say the minimum weight is 4lbs and goes up to 100lbs. Any thoughts??

Slings for baby!

Hi everyone. Baby is due in 3 weeks. I wondered who uses the slings and what you think of them? I have bought one thinking, I can have ‘skin to skin’ with the baby in the sling, whilst doing some house jobs! Has this how it’s worked for others, or.. am I living in a cuckoo land?!

Travel pushchair recommendations

Can anyone recommend a pushchair they’ve used to go abroad? I want one that can be taken on a plane and stored in the overhead locker ideally! I’ve been looking at the babyzen yoyo2 but read mixed reviews!

Infant Bug Repellent

Hello all! I’m planning to go away to Cuba with my little one in April, he’ll be 5 months by then. We’ve been there many times and know there can be lots of mosquitos but haven’t travelled yet with our baby. Is there an infant or baby bug repellent anyone can recommend? Thank you!

Baby carrier

Carriers

Can anyone recommend a baby carrier? I bought the ergobaby embrace however I just find the straps really uncomfortable and can’t put my arms up when wearing it. I want something really simple that I can easily put on on my own! Baby is 14 weeks but was 7 weeks premature max don’t want to spend an arm and a leg x

I’ve just started the clothes washing process!!

I’m now currently on leave from work, I had 7 weeks A/L built up so I’ve taken it in one lump then going straight onto Mat leave. Thought I’d make a start on getting the baby clothes sorted and washed, I didn’t realise how much I had!!

Pram question (UppaBaby Vista V2)

My baby is coming up 4 months and has nearly outgrown the bassinet of our UppaBaby Vista V2. I want to move him up to the toddler seat, but I cannot work out how to get the shoulder straps out to fit one of the footmuff insert things to keep him warm. Has anyone had the same issue? I'm starting to worry that they do...
