Disney Veteran but 1st Time Mom at the Parks Tips/Advice

We've taken ODD yearly since she was 2 and just went with YDD at 3 months. Rented a Citi Mini GT double this last time but really didn't need it. For our upcoming trip I'm actually "training" YDD to sleep in our Graco stroller (it has a 1-hand fold that's almost as convenient as the city mini), and a slight reclining seat. YDD is much more easygoing than ODD, though. When we went with ODD she never slept in the stroller anyway, so we brought a MacLaren Volo from home and gate checked it. I am definitely a fan of using a cheap umbrella stroller and a baby carrier (boba for us) in the airport. If the baby is in the carrier, we use the umbrella stroller to manage our carry on bags. Or, of course, she can ride in the umbrella stroller which is light and maneuverable in the airport.

Thank you for the tips. Smart idea of using the stroller for your bags!!!
