[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem with the Doona is that a year is optimistic. Lots of babies outgrown them sooner. And then what do you do? Convertible seats are a pain for travel and putting in and out of cabs. I recommend the Chicco Fit2 for your situation, plus the city mini stroller. There’s an attachment so you can snap the car seat right into the stroller. And kids fit in that car seat until they’re TWO on average - it’s the longest lasting infant bucket seat on the market. At two, you can switch to something lightweight and forward facing for cabs, like the WayB Picco. [/quote] pp who loves her doona here, that is a consideration but many people also get use greater than a year. I saw a review of someone who got use for 17 months and I got at least that (my daughter is 21 months and her head is still more than an inch from the top - it's no longer my every day car seat but I still feel comfortable using it in an uber/lyft. In addition to having a tiny apartment I have a tiny car and definitely super great not to have to have the trunk filled up with an additional stroller. Since I only have one kid I basically store the doona in my car now (also have a convertible car seat installed) and still can use it as stroller in a pinch. The doona is absolutely the best baby purchase i made hands down. The lack of storage is the only downside. (not great for the farmer's market)[/quote]
