Which Travel system for a long journey with 12 week old baby
Hi my baby is due in the 1st week of March. Yet I have not decided which travel system to buy.
I wanted to ask your help. Me and my mother are making a long journey with the baby when the baby is 12 weeks old.
The journey involves nearly 2 hours of travel by taxi to the London Heathrow airport and then around 12 hours by flight and again 5 hours of journey by taxi. Could you please help me in deciding which would be a better travel system to buy?

Personally I would buy a lightweight stroller which can recline fully & then just take a car seat for the baby to be in during car travel. You can strap the car seat to the pushchair if you are in & out of differnt cars but when you arent needing the car seat it can be left at home & the lightweigth stroller will be much more practical.
I did a similar journey when my son was 11 weeks, 2hrs to heathrow & a 14hr flight to thailand, followed by 7 internal flights whilst in country. We took a trekker sytle pushchair & it was a pain & wish I had just take a umbrella stlye mclarens or similar
hope this helps. x
