Spring for the GT if you need the all terrain wheels. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377471 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 20:21:19 +0000 ShootingStar 1377471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just an FYI, technically the b-ready isn't supposed to be used with the regular stroller seat until 6 months because it doesn't fold completely flat. I actually have both the strollers, though haven't used the agile yet. I posted some comparison pics a while ago, I can probably scrounge up the thread if you're interested. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377469 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 20:19:30 +0000 jhd 1377469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jessibear: @loveisstrange: glad to know. we got the city mini &amp; are also considering going straight to a convertible car seat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377451 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 20:11:58 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 1377451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: I have the B-Agile and I have tested the b-ready in the store. I plan on buying the B-Ready the minute I get pregnant with #2. I want them both because I feel that they are both so different, but similar in that they are high quality. I wouldn't get the b-agile without *at least* an infant insert. It is designed to recline, however, it is also designed to hold toddlers of up to 40lbs, so it is wide and spacious, too much so for a newborn or even a small infant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377321 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 19:01:01 +0000 Dandelion 1377321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CupQuakeWalk: @T.H.O.U.: is the b-ready that much better than the b-agile? Is the difference with the feature of changing the seat positions? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377313 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 18:56:08 +0000 IcebergMom 1377313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We also went straight for the convertible with our first girl. It worked out ok. :) And got the BOB. For our rural location, the BOB was best for off-roading (no sidewalks!) and trails. </p> <p>This time I'm doing the infant seat first because I really missed not having a place to first baby in restaurants, etc. And plus it's CANADIAN WINTER for baby #2 and I can't imagine running him/her into the car without already being tucked and bundled in the seat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377311 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 18:55:30 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1377311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree. We loved our b ready and used it immediately flat for short walks. She still fits nicely as a tall 30lb toddler. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377310 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 18:53:42 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 1377310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: Yes---holds up to 50lbs. I'll attach a pic of it in different formats (it is folded in and forward facing in that pic I posted above)<br /> These are google images of the b-ready with kids of ALL sizes riding in it:</p> <p>[attach=2389/14/n0191i.259x194.bready2.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=2389/14/n0191m.194x259.images--1-.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=2389/14/n0191n.174x290.images--2-.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=2389/14/n0191p.211x239.images--3-.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=2389/14/n0191j.211x239.download.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377307 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 18:52:35 +0000 Dandelion 1377307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CupQuakeWalk: oh I see a color of that on sale at bru...I'll defonitely put it on my list! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377298 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 18:46:55 +0000 Dandelion 1377298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CupQuakeWalk: is it good for bigger babies too? I need one that willwork from Iinfant to toddler. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377296 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 18:45:26 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 1377296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: honestly, for a SMALL baby, i'd get the b-ready. It is similar to the B-agile which I have, but the way it folds up makes it AWESOME for small babies. You can get one on Amazon (depending on the color) for under $300, especially if it is open box. I'll attach a pic, jut ignore the 2nd seat in that pic.</p> <p>ETA: OK....Amazon has an open box for for $292. Also: I have seen them for less some places, depending on color.<br /> ALSO: if you do go with the B-AGILE, you can trade-in right now at BRU and get 25% off. </p> [attach=2389/14/n018nr.217x232.bready.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377207 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 17:53:17 +0000 Dandelion 1377207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jessibear: @loveisstrange: That is one on my list!

C was happy and secure. Highly recommend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377198 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 17:42:25 +0000 bisous 1377198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the Britax B-Agile we have, but I don't have much to compare it too. I still use it with an infant car seat most of the time, but it does lay flat. I think for a newborn, you would just have to roll some receiving blankets up to keep the baby in place. The stroller itself is sturdy and works well on our sidewalks in my suburban neighborhood (most of which are uneven!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-stroller-for-a-small-baby-without-a-infant-seat#post-1377089 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 15:57:12 +0000 Dandelion 1377089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not planning on getting an infant bassinet for LO. I'm going straight to a convertible car seat. I'm trying to figure out what would be the best stroller for him. I'd like one that lays pretty flat, but will be practical until the toddler years. </p> <p>I'm not looking to spend a ton, either. I'd like to keep it less than $300.</p> <p>I'd use it for outings, like doctor appointments and running to the store. In the summer, LO will be older, but he'll be tagging along with me and DS on our excursions. We live in a more rural area, so it's not for every day city living.</p> <p>Any experiences? </p>
