[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love my Uppababy Vista, using the bassinet for tiny infants. I would never snap a carseat into a stroller, nor would I use a carseat outside the car. Like you,mI prefer to wear my babies as often as possible, and to use the bassinet or stroller seat whenever I cannot baby wear.

Because you have a car, you could just start with a convertible carseat that stays in your car. There are plenty of convertible seats that fit newborns well.

The two situations when I liked having the infant car seat that we could remove:

- When dining out during the first few months (when she slept all the time). When we drove, she’d fall asleep in the car, we’d bring the car seat in and tuck it under the table, she’d sleep through the meal. Heaven. We did this probably 40-50x, so worth it.

- When taking the baby to visit friends and family at their homes. It was nice to have somewhere the baby could lie down or sleep that was safe in a house that might not have anywhere else to put her. I loved holding her and of course others did too, but sometimes it’s nice to have somewhere to put the baby down.

I agree it’s not essential and in either scenario you could put the baby in a carrier instead, but having eaten with a baby strapped to my chest many times, I know it’s definitely not ideal. Thus I am pro infant seat.[/quote]
