    Okay so I have been meaning to ask this question for quite some time just haven't had the time I guess....I was wondering, do you have a single stroller and a double stroller?? I bought a cheapo umbrella stroller for when I take one baby out with me and leave the other home. I am thinking about buying a nicer one with a storage basket, drink holder etc. I hate the umbrella stroller I have and Kelsey doesn't seem to comfortable in it. If you also have a single stroller, which one??

    Thanks in advance!

    Yes, we have a single and a double stroller only because one of my girls has to go to PT, and the helmet clinic once a week and I hate having to drag her sister there. The stroller we bought was cheap...I love it more than my double. Here is the stroller. It has a huge basket, shade and two cup holders. It also comes with a tray for the baby with cup holders.

    I only have the doubles. It's very, very rare that I only have 1 child. I usually have 2 or 0.

    Same here. Although I do have a Graco single stroller from my older DD but it never gets used anymore.

    Once they were old enough for umbrella strollers, I had two of those. Often if my husband & I were both going to be out with them, we took those because they were so much more manageable with each of us taking one. And if I went somewhere with just one (which, even now, is extremely rare) I would just take one of the umbrella strollers.

    I never go with just one baby, I don't think I've ever left the house with just one baby! :p

    I do have a cheapie umbrella with a canopy from my older kids I could theoretically use, although I doubt I'd ever have to use it, I usually have all 4 kids in tow when I leave the house! :p

    I would advise getting a single from a garage sale/craigslist since you wont use it as much. We use our single Graco Quatro tour for now because my sons are too small for even the double and I hate putting them in the carseats just to walk around the neighborhood. I really like pushing two babies in a small stroller so I could see it being a PITA to push 1 child in the larger stroller.

    I've never been out with just one baby! I plan to maybe get just a cheap umbrella in the event it does happen, but for now, we just have a double.

    We just got the cheapo umbrella strollers from Target. We actually use those sometimes when we go out if we don't want the huge twin stroller and we each take one. I see what you mean without all the nice features of an actual stroller though. I definitely can't see either of them being comfortable enough to sleep in them.
