Graco - Myavo Travel Stroller

We started with a Graco travel system, bought an umbrella stroller for indoors, found that both didnt turn well on slick floor inside stores. Bought a bugaboo lynx and got rid of both of the others. Our lynx comes in and out of the house since it turns much better than our cheap umbrella stroller did. It doesn't fold super small so you need decent trunk space but it's pretty lightweight so easy to pop in and out.

3, but now 2. One evenflo travel system which I sold then bought graco travel system then bought uppababy vista because baby (at 5 months) hated bassinet but couldn’t do full recline. I also wish I just went right to uppababy.

We got a graco travel system with the infant car seat. I loved it. The infant carseat we were able to use it for awhile. I know a lot of people complain the infant carseat gets too heavy to take out all the time, but that's what we did. I loved the bassinet feature with the stroller. And then it converted to toddler stroller. We still use it and my daughter is 2. It is not the smallest when folded, but that's my only complaint. We mainly use it in the neighborhood so keep it open in the garage for easy use. I have an umbrella stroller to take on errands that I know I need it to keep her contained, like the DMV.

Depends on how much you plan to use it as a newborn. Some have the infant carseat just clips into the stroller as well. I have a graco travel system that the bassinet part switches to the seat part once they can sit up. I took my daughter for a few walks in the bassinet part so it was used. When she got big enough I switched it to the seat for walks. My stroller can also just have the carseat clip in, which I never did. How much do you plan to use th stroller in those early months will help you decide

I have 2, 1 was a registry gift and the other was a handme down. I got a graco travel system stroller, that is the main stroller i use. I also have a umbrella stroller that my sis in law gave me from her kids. I have used it a few times. Its easier to use if I just need to run errands some place that doesn't have shopping carts. Its smaller and lighter then my graco stroller. We keep the graco stroller set up in the garage for whenever we go on walks in the neighborhood. Personally would have been fine with just the graco, but the smaller umbrella stroller is nice to have as well

Really depends on how much you plan to use it and how. I got a graco travel system that came with the carseat and stroller. The carseat can clip into the stroller if needed. The stroller is also a bassinet and transfers into the toddler seat when they can sit up. I mainly planned to use it for walks around the neighborhood and if we went anywhere like shopping or the zoo. I love my stroller. Got it for my oldest and she would usually sleep in the bassinet part on walks and when she got older she loved being able to look around when on walks in the toddler seat. My youngest is 1 week old and I took her on her 1st walk yesterday. Had to switch the stroller back to the bassinet and she slept the whole walk. I honestly dont see the point in spending tons of money on a stroller unless you plan to use it every day for a good amount of time.

Graco is great quality and decently priced. I love their travel system. My carseat, strollers (single and double), and Pram all connect and they are easy to use.

If I could fit all over again I’d spend the money up front and invest in a Graco travel system. Their snug ride car seat and infant carrier was easy to install and made me feel secure about my baby’s safety at all times. We could even use it without the base in a pinch by guiding a seatbelt through the designated strap holders. That same carrier snaps securely into their stroller system, and the right stroller even evolved as your baby grows. It’s great value for money and great convenience for mom and dad.

Have a registry open, sometimes you can stack the discounts on top of sale for extra saving. Bottle cleaner/sterilizer - must have for the first 3 months, since you need to sterilize their bottles, binkies, and some toys while the baby builds up their immune system. So much easier than standing over a pot of boiling water. Stroller/car seat - we have a Graco travel system, it's easy and lightweight. We prioritized weight and compactness for ease of use. Baby wipes - you can't have too many Diapers/bottles/binkies- here's the thing people don't talk about, it's not a one size fits all. Your baby will come out with their own personality and preferences. You might prefer one brand over another. Get a small box of diapers, sampler bottles and nipples from registry kits. See what you like and stock up from there. There will always be promotions and discounts on diapers at different retailers. Breast pump - your insurance should cover for one, but it's also worth checking out the different models and sales. Read the reviews! It's good to have a manual as well for emergencies and on the go pumping. If you are pumping for work - a deep freezer and extra milk bags.

We love our Graco myavo. I think it cost £130. My friend has a silver cross jet and says it’s a great pram too.

I love once upon a child, most of my babies wardrobe is from there. I also like winners (I don’t buy a ton here as it’s a bit more expensive and your baby prob won’t wear it long), old navy and Walmart for clothing. My girl is small though so she’s def gotten a lot of use out of the clothes I’ve bought, I know not the same for most people! I have a Graco travel system, I like having the car seat that attaches to the stroller but I also like having the pram option too. I got mine as a gift but it was bought during Black Friday last year so def a good time to look for things like that! I just got a convertible car seat for like 43% off so that was great. I find a play mat goes to a lot of good use, mine has a kick piano with it and dangling toys she can bat around. I was lucky to find mine at Winners for cheap. She’s been using it for probably 6 out of the 8 months she’s been here. Good luck!

I personally love a good travel system for infants. I enjoy being able to just click the car seat into the stroller and not have to worry about waking a sleeping baby. After that a convertible car seat is the way to go. Graco is reliable and affordable. I personally LOVE Britax car seats because of the ease of instal. I won’t buy any other brand for convertible car seats. I’ve had the Graco travel system through 3 kids and it’s worked great. Just more of a pain to instal.

Getting the features I wanted all in one stroller and not feeling like it was going to break immediately. I had my first when I was young and my budget was very, very tight—I was gifted a Graco travel system and it was ok, but it got used a ton and broke shortly after my daughter turned 1. I ended up buying a cheap umbrella stroller for my toddler, and between that and wearing her, made it through. When I had my second 10 years later, I knew exactly what features I wanted and my circumstances (both physically and budget) were significantly different. We weren’t using a baby bucket-style seat, so I wanted a stroller that laid either had a bassinet or laid truly flat for a newborn, it needed to have a very adjustable handle (my partner is almost a full foot taller than me), I have a disability that affects my balance so it needed to be very sturdy, etc. Basically anything that had all of our needed features was going to be on the high end. We ended up with a Nuna Mixx and I absolutely loved it. I used it almost every day for the first 2 years. It was still in good condition, my son just hated being in a stroller. I sold it to a local baby/kids second hand shop and the resulting store credit bought his next year of clothes. The extra money spent on the stroller was absolutely completely worth it to me. To be fair, it wasn’t a problem in my budget either. There were certainly other areas we simply didn’t spend because we didn’t need it or prioritize it, which left our budget open for the stroller.
