I'll double check, LeAnn, but I'm pretty sure the Safety Surround Myrides are the same shell as the old Myrides, just souped up.  If that's the case, they would fit an average size newborn nicely.  For a preemie or an...

Pennywhistle - is that symphysis pubic dysfunction?  I think that's what I go through.  It's my only real pregnancy complaint.  Does it hurt when your legs are separated, like getting dressed and in/out of cars and...

LeAnn, they're actually both great choices.  I haven't installed a Cocorro before, but I have an older style Myride and I've never had trouble installing it in any vehicle.  With the seatbelt, anyway - I don't use LATCH...

I too have found stretches to be essential to getting through the pelvic and back pain.  I do the head down, butt-in-the air thing when I go to bed and get up, and I do pelvic rocks/cat stretches after that.  I'll do those...
