stroller advice again! Sorry!

Okay, so I am still trying to figure this out. If you got a travel system, do you actually push the stroller around with the infant seat inside? Or do you mainly use the infant seat with the snap and go?

the seat and the stroller do not have to match.

If you get the travel system, then yes, you put the seat in the stroller and stroll it that way.

Just know that the travel system strollers are bulkier because they have to fit the infant seat.

you would get the snap n go if you don't want the travel system, or if you get a carriage that does not come in a travel system.

I do not have the travel system.

Buy the stroller that you want without regard to whether or not the infant seat will fit in it since the stroller will be your best friend for years, whereas most babies are out of the infant seat around 5 months or so. At least mine were. I have a Peg Perego Pliko and LOVE it. It is still in perfect shape two years later.

I had a travel system for Alyson. We registered for it together versus the infant seat and the snap and go, and another stroller.

We plan on using the infant seat for this baby and maybe buying a snap and go IF we are out and about with just the new baby or with both of them and using the Elmo umbrella stroller that my grandma HAD to buy for her

the easiest thing to use w/ the infant carrier is the snap-n-go, imo.

I agree. I got the Snugride and the Snugride carrier plus a full size stroller, which did have an infant seat that matched it, but I didn't get that infant seat. I just got the infant seat that I liked and used it with the carrier and when DD outgrew the infant seat I started using the full size stroller.

I have the peg perego venenzia stroller and the peg perego infant seat. Yes, you can snap the infant seat inside the stroller but I would say I used this feature 1/2 dozen times and DS is now 7mths old. I now have to switch him to the reg. car seat because he is getting too long. I agree w/ the other post buy the stroller you like since you will use that more rather then the travel system.

Never bought or used the snap and go and nevr had the need.. I just snapped my infant seat into my stroller when we went for walks and yes they matched - I was weird like that and wanted a match. My son was only in the infant seat for 4 months so the snap and go would have been a waste for me.
