Double-stroller Recommendation and Other Recs to Help Juggle Newborn & Toddler!?

Hello mamas! I am expecting a new baby boy in June, at which point my first (boy also) will be 26 months old. I am curious how one juggles a newborn at the same time they are chasing a very active two-year old around! When I think back on Connor's newborn days, I remember being so busy and sleep-deprived. So, I can't imagine what it will be like chasing a toddler at the same time!! I've seen previous posts that mention having the right products will help immensely, such as a good double stroller and a wrap in which to wear the...

Airplane Trip with 6 Month Old

I will be flying with my 6 month old soon and would like some advice. I have one of those Graco car seats that detaches from the base.

Car Seat for Airplane Travel

My daughter is 11 months old and we are looking for another convertible car seat for my husbands car (we have a Cosco Alpha Omega Elite as our primary for my car), but one that also will be able to be used on an airplane (we will be taking a trip in a few months). I know we have to look for one that is "approved for air travel", but is there one that would be universal that would work on any airline or does it really depend on the airline and the width of their seats?

Double Stroller vs Snugli Type Carrier

I am due to have my 4th child on July 3rd and am trying to figure out what form of "transportation" I want to use for the mall or park or walks etc. My youngest is going to be 22 months when this baby is born. I would like to know everyones opinions on which is better - using a Graco front to back double stroller (it would need to accomodate my Graco Snug Ride car seat) or putting the baby in a front style carrier and putting "big" sister in the stroller. My concern with having my 22 mo old walk is that she has hit this phase of wanting...
