We got a new car last night!! My 2-door Hyundai was NOT going to cut it for fitting a baby seat, stroller, etc, so we went bigger! We got a certified used 2009 VW Jetta, and it is beauuuutiful! It's got a moonroof! And leather seats! All I want to do is go home and drive my pretty car!
Are any other pregnant ladies planning on getting a new (or used) car to fit the baby?

I bought an 04 volvo wagon while pregnant, and I love it! I'm going to pimp it out this christmas with a new stereo, because I am a huge geek. Mommobiles forever!

I deliberately bought my first ever 5 door a year before we started TTC. You know what the Girl Guides say - "be prepared"!

@mrs. bird: Thank you! I've heard nothing but good things from Jetta owners; that's always a good sign!

Nice! We're looking at going out sometime this month to get a Rav4!

@anonysquire: Haha Alien! Love it. They didn't tell me the official name, but it looks like it's either Laser Blue or Blue Graphite... I'm gonna say laser blue because it sounds cooler

@Bookworm: blue cars are fun!!!! Sounds way cool 
@aprk: I love the brown and cream ones too. Are the different colors priced differently?

Oh, nice! Jettas are so cute. Not pregnant yet but I am on cycle 9 so I've decided it's time to upgrade. Picking up my new CRV at the end of the week. Let's hope this car gives me a little extra luck in starting my first IUI next month!

Congratulations! I am planning my lease car that I'm getting shortly around the fact there may be an extra one in the near future!

@Bookworm: yeah I adore this car. I feel like a hot mom in it. Not quite soccer mom yet.

Nice!!! We've been looking and I'm pretty sure we'll eventually get the Volvo XC90 4WD Used. But for now, I'm okay with driving my little C-class since I don't go very far most days anyways.
P.S. I've heard of babies who get OBSESSED with the moonroof! Like it has to be opened and/or they always stare out of it!

Nice! But I definitely clicked on the thread thinking I would see a picture of a mobile to put over a crib, since I'm looking for ideas. This one would be a little too heavy

When we bought our new car in April, I definitely picked it out with future children in mind. It's a 2011 Nissan Versa, and while it's a little car, there is SO much room inside! I fit a full-size dresser in there and people couldn't believe it.
