So this is my 2nd child but in the 4yrs since having him so much has changed in the world of travel systems!
The biggest difference is that since having him, my financial situation has changed considerably. 4yrs ago I was pregnant, alone and single and I had 2nd hand mothercare's own brand of travel system from eBay. Now I don't need to worry about that, just need do some research, let DP know what one I want and we can go out and get it.
However I have no idea what to get! Just as I decide "YEP! Definitely this one!" I find another I love!
I have a back injury (fractured lower spine) so need something as lightweight as possible. Due to the back issues I need something where the baby is as high up as possible too. And I need something that easily carries a car seat, carrycot and stroller seat.
The Egg I think is too heavy.
Ickle Bubba I think is light but too low (but my penny saving mode kicks in when looking at them coz they have amazing packages for the low price! But is this because quality is compromised?).
Stokke is very light and perfect for height I think? But is it a bit plasticky? I can't find anywhere to trial one!!!!
Mima Xari is like Stokke but I think more sturdy?
Stokke and Mima Xari are my favourites but I don't know how easy they are to convert to car seat carriers? There is NOWHERE to trial them as mothercare doesn't stock Stokke anymore and I can't find them to even compare.
So can anyone help? I need a light, as high up as possible, sturdy, ~flying~ travel system and I just don't know what to get!!!!! I'm getting migraines just thinking about it!!!!
Please help!
