When did you stop using the infant seat in the stroller?

DS has good head control, and I'm tired of lugging that damn infant seat out of the car into the stroller.

Is it okay to just put him in the stroller without it now?

He's almost 4 months.

TIA.

If the stroller reclines then really any age is fine. Emma has been in hers without the infant seat for several weeks now. Honestly I think she was happier in the infant seat, but it's just too heavy for me!

absolutely!

Colton has been in the infant seat and regualr stroller since he's been a month old!

We started putting Taylor in the stroller w/o the infant seat a few month ago, she is almost 6 months now. We have the metrolite stroller and it has a little head support pillow in it

You saw at your In laws, I put Noah in the stroller without the infant seat. I use it when we are out like at BBQ's etc , like you saw. I strap him in to it well if we are "moving around" as he is a wiggle worm.

I prefer the infant seats still but he's abel to handle the regualr stroller and he will be 12 weeks Friday.

I never had one of those strollers. I had just a regular infant stroller and used one of those headrest things to support the head and never had any problems.

We used an inglesina stroller but after he turned 1 we started using the umbrella stroller.

DS has been in his stroller since he is about 2 weeks old. The seat reclines totally flat so it kind of look like a bassinet/pram. It was actually better for him than being all squeezed in his carseat.

I'm still using both. If I'm out shopping, I still put him in the snap and go (although those days are numbered since he'll probably grown out of the infant seat soon.)

I also have put him in his regular stroller in a semi-recline position. I have the Peg Perego Uno so I am able to have him facing me since the handle moves from one side to the other.

I still use her snap n go for errands - but she has been in her stroller from about 2 weeks on - it has a full recline and is meant for birth + - she greatly prefers it to her infant seat. I never used the infant seat on her regular stroller

I always put him right in the stroller bc he hates the car seat.

Our stroller doubles as a bassinet so we never used the infant seat, but I just started putting DS (3mths 3 weeks) in a reclined, but semi-upright position. He seems to be doing great and he loves sitting up so that he can see things. I figured he was getting tired of looking at mom ALL THE TIME. Apparently, I was right!!!
