car seat/stroller duo?

Should I just get a car seat, or a stroller/car seat duo thingy? If you got the stroller duo one, did you actually use the stroller the first few months? It just seems so bulky to me that I don't think I would use it much.

yeah, but I'm getting the big stuff out of the way. And the stroller/car seat is the last "big" thing I have to get so that way I can get tell people when they ask that I need diapers and such.

I would definately get the duo your going to use both one way or the other and when your baby is older buy a small stroller if the other one is too big and bulky. Are you having a baby shower, just curious?

My friends got me a Travel System (car seat plus stroller) you can use the stroller early on by latching the car seat on top the stroller and takin' him like that. It looks pretty nifty to me, but obvi I haven't used It yet so we'll see. =]

We got our travel system for only 125 dollars!  I definitely think it's worth it.

I got the duo and have already used the stroller when I took baby to his appt. It was easier for me because im still having trouble getting around and there's no way I could have carried the carseat as far as I had to go

I would most definently get the duo, it comes in handy when they are still in the carrier lol the carrier gets heavy, I'm so glad I got the duo I hear when they turn one thougj the little strollers are more handy but for an infant I highly recommend.

Gurl I bought a carseat and I got a cheap stroller from babies r us for 25 bucks. There to heavy to me I hated having to pick it up and take it out all the time. The cheaper ones are way more light and easier at stores.

Even if you don't use it during the first few months it's still nice to have. We used ours with the car seat when we went to the mall or out to family bbqs at the park. Then when she got older we used it pretty much everywhere.. The zoo, walks, parks, mall..
