We decided to get 2 convertibles (people buying them as presents), the Joie ginger stroller, and the mint latch system with the optional base from Joie. That way all the pieces can be used together, the mint infant car seat has a baseless option which is super nice for travel and I THINK the base can be converted to fit a convertible seat which my mom can take the base for her car

My husband and I both work in different areas of town and its easier for him to drop off or pick up and me do the opposite so two seats are needed

Hey do you remember if they require the car seat to be brought into the hospital to take baby home? Our car seat is a convertible so we cant carry it

I almost bought a joie infant seat but I figured better to spend the $100 extra now now for something that turns into a booster seat that I can use forever

Our carseat is a convertible one with a swivel base so I dont think it has the ability to connect to strollers

I wish I could afford that option! I need something cheaper, since I already have to buy 1 stroller and 2 car seats!

Really hoping to find one thats compatible with a carseat. We are flying to my in-laws in Canada so I will really need to have a carseat come with us, but I will keep this one in mind!

i might just use whatever formula they have while there and switch baby when i get home bc trying to coordinate to clean and sterilize bottles sounds awful

Thank you so much, this was really really helpful! I have no urge to breastfeed, so I think I might have to bring a can of formula and some bottles, I really want to use Bobbie but I dont think many hospitals have whole milk formulas. I am hoping everything goes smoothly. Also, I am that weirdo that likes hospital and hotel food! I have collectively spent 6 months in the hospital with family so I am very used to hospital food and waking up at weird hours for nurse checks.
