Annie GWorked for us“We keep this in our trunk. It’s light weight, easy to wash, and secures well to chairs (or can be used directly on the floor / ground). I prefer to use this in restaurants so I don’t have to worry about disinfecting the highchair. I will say it has worked better as our son has grown. When we first started using it with him at six months of age, the seat was too deep / wide and we had to roll towels up to keep him in a more upright position. ”

Annie GWorked for us“I found this brand on the EWG’s sunscreen recommendation list years ago and have used it ever since! Keep in mind that like all zinc oxidize sunscreens it takes a bit of effort to rub in. It has a lovely slightly orange scent but doesn’t irritate my or the kids eczema prone skin. ”

Annie GCan't live without“I keep this in my trunk at all times! It folds up easily and compactly and can be thrown into the bottom of our stroller during outings. I love that it is waterproof and keeps us dry on wet grass. We also use this at the beach and sand slides off it easily. It can be easily wiped down or cleaned in the washer as well. Comes in multiple sizes and cute patterns. ”

Jogging Strollers

Thule Urban Glide 2 Double Jogging Stroller

$849.95

Buy from Amazon

1 recommendation

Annie GCan't live without“We use this stroller primarily for walks in our hilly neighborhood. The handbrake is a life saver for me and ultimately is what won me over to this stroller vs. the BOB double. We also take it along for longer outdoor outings like to the zoo. The suspension is fantastic. We also have the car seat adapter and the parent organizer. Our infant could sit beside our toddler around 5 months without the carseat. We bought ours during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale at a great price! A couple things to keep in mind: This takes up most of the space in the trunk of my Honda CR-V. Also, getting it into the trunk at all was challenging for me when I was pregnant and postpartum due to the size / weight. Additionally, even at their straightest option, the child seats are always slightly reclined. This doesn’t bother my kids, but I have heard it does some. One other thing - the canopy does not extend down as far over the child seats as the BOB jogger. This is only an issue for us if we’re walking up hill and the sun is low in the sky. ”

TULA

Carriers

Tula Ergonomic Carrier - Oh My! - Baby

Buy from Amazon

1 recommendation

Annie GWorked for us“I bought ours (in black mesh) directly from Baby Tula during a Mother’s Day sale. The mesh helps keep both me and baby cooler in our hotter climate. There is a Velcro pocket on the front that perfectly fits my iPhone and / or keys. It’s been great for contact-naps at home as well as on the go! A few things to keep in mind: Not sure why, but the Baby Tula website fcalls it a “Standard” carrier vs. Amazon which calls it an “Ergonomic” carrier. Also be aware that this requires an infant insert for babies between 7-15 lbs. Additionally, it only can be used in two positions (baby facing towards your front or towards your back). However, I have found this increases the comfort for the parent and as well as how secure feeling the baby is (vs. carriers with outward facing options). ”

Annie GWorked for us“We keep this stroller in our trunk and use it primarily for running errands. The suspension isn’t great and the wheels are too small for using functionally in our hilly neighborhood without curb cuts. But, for inside stores, parking lots, flat side walks it does great! We bought the single - to - double but never ended up purchasing a second seat for it. We instead bought the Riding Board for our toddler when our second was born. We also have the Chicco car seat attachment and just pop our infant seat on and off as we do errands. It’s relatively easy to close (I find harder to open… although I think I heard the 2.0 version has been improved) but the basket size is my favorite thing about this stroller. I can fit an entire week’s groceries in the bottom!! It’s definitely not UppaBaby, but for the price and features, it fits our needs well. I am just glad we also have the Thule jogger for rougher terrains and hills. ”
