Hi everyone,
Expecting first baby in August. We don't have a car and rely on buses, but need to get a car seat to a) be allowed out of the hospital b) for granny and granddad's car.
Already have a secondhand travel system (Silvercross 3d ) so don't know whether to just buy a new seat for that, or whether we'd be better buying a 0+/1 reversible.
I'm planning to mostly use a sling, so it doesn't really matter if car seat is pram-compatible as it will just be used in parents' car (or does it?) Although have just thought we should probably have another one at ours in case of going in other people's car/taxi! Was thinking of getting this one:

Or this one: www.mothercare.com/Mothercare-Madrid-Combination-Car-Seat/609588,default,pd.html
We don't have a huge budget, but obviously prepared to pay however much we need for baby to be safe. Is it better to go for separate infant seat (maybe the Silvercross) and then think about a second one when baby is bigger, or invest in one now that will see us through to being a toddler.
A completely overwhelmed new mum-to-be!
