See this is what I want to do, but with H deploying right after baby I will always be on my own so I feel like I have to bite the bullet & get one :/ I hate how pricey they are & used ones go so quick on our swap page. Not the same, but I will be alone with the kids most of the time and I'm thinking I'll skip the double. You liked to wear C didn't you? (Sorry if that's not right, I thought you were a baby wearer). I'm thinking my plan is to wear the new baby and ds will go in the stroller/cart. By the time new baby is too big for the tula(I'm guessing 1-1.5 Like ds), ds will be around 4. Sorry I think I rambled a lot. Have you checked Craigslist for double strollers? Yes! My only thinking is it gets deathly hot here in the summer & idk if I will be so thrilled about babywearing during those months. I have been keeping my eye out for strollers I'm just picky & want the one I want 😂 |

I love our Britax B Agile single but the double won't take a car seat and the very similar City Mini will take everything but a Britax car seat. I'm hoping Britax comes out with a 2018 seat before LO comes that will take a car seat.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Was just about to come in here & post about how I'm going to look at a britax double tonight & I saw this. If you're able to find an older model they have the adapters for the car seats. We have a britax single & the b safe car seat too, a lady near me is selling a 2015 double which does have the adapters so unless it's a piece of junk we're buying it tonight! After all my research I find it so annoying that the new models don't take infant seats! Like who's idea was that?? |

Ok-- we got the britax side by side double! It's the older model so it still has infant seat adapters. OMG it rides soooo smooth. We got it used but you can't tell. I'm sooooo happy with it. Pushed it around with DD in it and it doesn't feel heavy at all. I'm in love!!

I was just looking online for a new 2016 model and couldn't find one. I think they stopped making the 2017 infant seat compatible after the whole recall of the adapters. They mailed us the replacement adapters though so we can just use those! 🤦♀️ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

We got all used with baby #1 (except the car seat & stroller). This double was $90!!!!!!! |

I have an old britax stroller we can add one of those skateboard attachments I think, but I am not in love with the stroller itself. I do love the bob we have but the double is just sooo large. So just browsing our BST pages and seeing what I can snag for a deal since DS doesn't need to be in one that much.

I originally had a single width double stroller, but I found A sit and stand at a sale and it was a total game changer. My 1 year old happily rides in the front and the 3 yr old loves being able to get up and down and sit or stand... it's really the best. I'm a baby wearer, so it will remain mostly for my older two until #3 is bigger, then I suppose my two oldest could take turns using the second seat/platform.

I found a used City Select double on FB Marketplace for $360. It's $700 new. I wanna look at it this week and if it's in great shape I should probably get it.

helloerrbody I've seen the city select on sale a few places, I think it was $360 new on albee baby single, but you could always buy the extra seat! Nordstrom has it on sale too I think! ETA: albee baby also has the double on sale too but I think only one color. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm meeting the lady selling the b ready with 2nd seat on Monday. Can't beat $100 as long as it isn't in terrible shape.

The extra seat is $199 so that comes out to $560 if I bought the single on sale and added the seat. If this used one is in good condition like she says then I'm gonna go for it. I will probably offer $320. |
