Ultimate Strollers


The Trendy Stroller

Walk the sidewalks of Manhattan or spy on what the celebrities are pushing in Los Angeles and either way, you're likely to see a Bugaboo. These strollers are large -- not for people who ride mass transit -- but they offer superior comfort for baby and easy pushing for parents. Their least expensive version is the Gecko ($680).

The Unique Stroller

There's still nothing like Stokke's Xplory, which is designed so that your baby rides up high, where she can see you best. The built-on bag (instead of a basket) keeps your supplies from rattling around. New this year is a bassinet attachment (and adorable parasol!) to make it more newborn-friendly ($1099 for the Xplory Complete, which has a regular seat plus the bassinet).

The Stylish but Affordable Stroller

Try this look-alike, called the Infant-to-Toddler Stroller, by Fisher-Price and made for Target. The seat reclines for an infant and, like all the best models, the seat can be turned so baby faces you ($250).

The Sit and Ride Stroller

We love the Joovy Caboose, which can fit a car seat in the front and has a place for an older child to stand in back. If the big kid tires, there's a bench for him -- but it lets him face you, so he doesn't feel like a baby ($150).

The Double Stroller

The Inglesina Twin Swift is a best buy because, despite its light weight, it holds up under very heavy use. It folds flat (making it easy to travel with or store) and each seat reclines for naps and has an individual canopy. And, yes, it fits through doorways ($250).

Healthy Sleep Habits: Why Not All Sleep Habits Are Bad f you’ve been a reader of The Baby Sleep Site ®  for awhile, then you know a thing or two about sleep associations, don’t you? You’ve no doubt read our  sleep association blog post , and have learned all about how certain habits that your baby associates with sleep (like nursing to sleep, or rocking to sleep, or being held during sleep) can cause big, huge sleep problems that affect the whole family. And you’ve no doubt learned that  sleep training  is the process of gently weaning your baby away from any negative sleep associations, and teaching your little one how to fall asleep independently, without ongoing help from mom or dad. But what if I told you that not all sleep associations are bad?  Sleep associations tend to get a pretty bad rap, but that’s not necessarily fair. I think when most of us hear ‘sleep habits’, we tend to think about bad habits – but  the truth is, good, healthy s...

Parents Are Warning Others About Tommee Tippee's 'Disgusting' Milk Machines Parents have been posting gross pictures on Facebook after taking their Tommee Tippee Perfect Prep milk machines apart and finding them filled with what looks like black grime and mold-like slime. Parents certainly haven't been shy when it comes to using social media to expose defects with their kids' products—including some Tommee Tippee products. First it was  moldy sippy cups . Then it was problems with  pacifiers . And now, it seems, some moms and dads are at it again, after discovering "mold-like slime" and black grime in their Tommee Tippee Perfect Prep milk machines. The machine—which is not sold in the U.S. but is popular in the UK—is used to make formula for babies and is popular with parents because it is able to whip up a heated bottle in less than two minutes. Pretty cool! But does that convenience come at a price? "After all the raised concern recentl...

American    Academy of Pediatrics says pesticides aren't bad for babies - Eat more! For the very first time, the  American Academy of Pediatrics  (AAP) has come forward with an official position on organic foods and their role in childhood health and development. But rather than encourage parents to avoid buying pesticide-laden conventional foods, the group, which openly admits that conventional produce is loaded with toxic pesticides, says parents should keep on feeding their children conventional produce despite the dangers involved. The duplicitous report by AAP, which reads as though it was written by the chemical industry, concedes that organic produce has significantly lower pesticide levels than conventional produce, and that this variance could be significant for childhood health outcomes. And yet in the same breath, the report concludes that since there is supposedly no "direct evidence" that consuming a solely organic diet leads to better health ou...
