Car Seat and Stroller Shopping

Last Tuesday we went out with my husband’s sister, her daughter, and fiancé.  My sister-in-law a.k.a. our baby's ninang was more than kind enough to gift her inaanak a stroller, so Benedict and I were thrilled! We all headed to Megamall’s SM Department store which greeted us with a large variety of strollers and travel systems, from economical to high-end brands (DO NOT forget to bring your Baby Company Mom Card for SM baby purchases btw!).


My husband and I had been checking out baby stuff in different malls, but had often found ourselves overwhelmed by the numerous choices on hand. So with my sister-in-law's coaching (and magnanimity) we went home with a well-chosen car seat and stroller combo! 



Brand: Goodbaby
Price: Php 11,999.00
Color: Brown (It also comes in blue)
Features: Sturdy, 8-wheeled stroller with a car seat that also serves as an infant carrier or rocker. 
Details: One-hand fold, front suspensions, rear-wheel breaks, generous canopy, 5-point safety belt, well-padded seat covers 
Accessories: Under-the-seat storage space, a baby tray, 2 covers, a mosquito net, and a diaper bag


Here are a few quick, not-so-pretty photos I shot before my husband's instincts for pack-away-type tidiness took over (excuse the plastic, we'll take them out sometime nearer my due date):

Remember, when shopping for a stroller, have a ready criteria. Here's ours:
  • Durable
  • Easy to maneuver, store, and clean 
  • Safe, comfortable, and practical features
  • Grow-with-me capabilities (can accomodate newborns to toddlers)
  • A neutral color...in case God blesses us with more children in the future
  • Within budget 
  • Can fit in the car trunk
