We've done it many times and have never had an issue-- but we don't bring our expensive stroller, we bring the lightweight easy to fold Maclaren Volo.  It gets a bit dirty, but since it's mostly all folded up in on itself it's no...
In terms of an adjustable recline-- that is only to get the correct recline for an infant, and correct recline for older infant.  I'm sure you know that already, but just for anyone else reading, because I always hear people say...
I was really worried about that.  We lived in a 1BD apt and had midwife, dad, doula and photographer.  The photographer just stayed out of the way, she knew what she was doing!  She was an old friend of mine, so it...

Not everyone feels extra sexy during the 2nd trimester!  I have the opposite hormonal response during pregnancy that most women-- I have NO libido, in any trimester.  It came back immediately after birth last time (like,...
