Hey all! My DH and I are taking our two sons who are (just turned) 3 months and 17 months to WDW in 10 days. My older son went at 5 months, so we have experience with taking a little, tiny one, but this is our first time with two - especially two who are so young! SO our dilemma is this: We have a double stroller and we have a single stroller. Our double stroller is one that stacks and it is SO bulky! I've been to WDW 6x and DH has been 20+x so I know how tight things can be (they generally aren't because Disney is so family friendly, but there are moments) and steering that huge stroller through a gift shop sounds less than appealing, and to be honest, I also hate not being able to see my toddler in front while the baby is sleeping in his carseat in back AND it's hard to see past - I'm afraid I'll hit another kid! I baby wear some and my son enjoys it. I have a Moby and a sling and my DH has a front backpack carrier. We're debating taking our single stroller and wearing our baby all day. I'm thinking this will keep my son sleeping more and happier than being in his car seat and I'm liking the idea of my toddler being in a smaller stroller. My fears in leaving the double behind are... when we're solo with both kids (bathroom trips or if we ride a ride on our own briefly) and when we're in restaurants (like if the baby wants independence and to look around... but we can't bring the stroller in and there's not a reclining high chair).
So does anyone have experience with this great to bring or to not bring my double stroller debate? I mentioned to DH we could check the single stroller (flying SW so it's free) and take the double through the airport and then we'd have both. He's afraid the stroller would get seriously jacked up in the transit and would useless or damaged by the time it made it to our room at Disney. That scenario would be perfect though because then we could play it by ear when we got there!
Thanks for the tips you have!
