Bundleme's? do they go over carseats too?

I am taking Luce to Woodbury Commons tomorrow and it's going to be a cold one.

but I have to go b/c I made plans with other people that I can't break.

I have a bundle me but I am too dumb to figure out how to use it...

I thought it was for use with a regular stroller...can I use it with a car seat and a snap and go?

thanks.

It can be used with the infant carrier, but isn't considered safe because it interferes with the straps.

You can use it on your infant carrier. You'll find a lot of people have used them with their infant carrier (myself included), and a lot of other people who wouldn't use it because it's an after-factory addition to the infant carrier and not recommended.

I used it and thought it was great.

Yup we used it on our car seat. We unzipped it. The side with the slits is where the straps go through. Then we put DD in it and zipped it back up. When we were outside we had it all the way zipped up and then when she was in the car or store we would unzip it halfway so her face wasn't covered but she would still be warm.

Yes you can use it with the carseat. they're not considered safe to use while you're driving, but they're perfectly safe to use while walking him around in the snap and go. If you a regular stroller you can also use the snap and go for that as well.

Not considered safe because it interferes with the straps, though admittedly I used it with Alex and never had an issue.

For Yael I bought the kiddopotomus, which doesn't interfere with the straps. LOOOOVE it and highly recommend it!

We used the Bundleme on the infant carrier. Although they "claim" it isn't safe I thought it was the best invention ever. Chat Icon

I don't want to use it in the car...only while we are outside.

Not at all, I would also cover the snap and go with a plastic rain cover if you have one, it will block the wind and keep some of the cold out as well. I use this when it's frigid like today which it will be this weekend also. Just used it walking to the bodega now, the wind is bitterly cold on DS's skin.

I hated my Bundle Me. The Posh Pouch is the way to go.

Re: Bundleme's? do they go over carseats too?

thanks everyone.

and thanks for the suggestions...though I physically HAVE the bundleme in my possession, so I am going to use that.

ruby, will any rain cover do? my car seat didn't come with one. I have the chicco car seat and the macclaren stroller frame if that makes a difference.

thanks

Use the Maclaren stroller rain cover over the carseat attached to the stroller.

ETA: But any raincover will do.

ITA - I used the bundleme with DD#1 b/c I didn't know at the time it wasn't considered safe but this time around I use the Kiddopotomus and love it too.
