Strollers, MM, MTTMM, WOC, ?s

[momto2nenas]

I apologize before hand for so many questions! The search features on this board are kinda lousy though.. I just can't find the detailed answers I'm looking for! We'll be at the DLR May 15-19th. (Saturday-Wednesday)

STROLLERS:
W/ Disney Visa its 50% off - Can I rent one for 4 days in a row and pay all up front? Will my 9 month old be comfortable enough to sleep in it?
We've rented them before but I just do not remember anything about them other than they were FREE w/ Disney Visa 3 years ago... lol
I'm also debating renting through www.travelbabees.com and getting a double..

MM:
Better to do it on a Sunday or Tuesday? (and where is the schedule for this?)

MTTMM:
Where can I find out what days its offered and the best day to do it?

WOC:
I've read the rumors it *may* have soft openings mid-May. WHERE will I find out this information while at the parks? Will it be on the Entertainment cards you recieve on entering the park? I don't usually check disboards/internet while on vacation.. SORRY!
I guess if we noticed 9000 people entering DCA in the evening we'll have a clue?!

Rides:
What rides will accomodate 3 people together? Our DDs are 9mos, 4, and 7. We are hoping 1 adult and 2 girls will be able to go together on some of the rides while the other adult stays behind w/ the baby.

I have never had a stroller at DL, but at WDW they are hard plastic and I don't think that would be a good choice for a 9 month old to take a nap in.
I would bring my own or rent.

The strollers at DLR are similar to jogging strollers. They are soft, not hard plastic. The seat doesn't recline but it's sort of at an angle so it's always a bit reclined. We've never had a little baby (DS was 3 when we rented one) in one so I can't help with how comfy a 9 month old would be but it seems like it would work unless your baby needs to lie flat.

When my middle ds was just about 1 he took a nap in the disney stroller, it didnt look that comfortable but he didnt seem to mind. As for what rides fit three people, it seems to me that most of the Fantasyland rides do, is there a ride in particular you are wondering about, we leave on Sunday with our 5, 3, and 1 year old kids so I can make sure I find out for you.

I don't believe you can pay for the days in advance for the stroller with the Disney Visa.

For MM, I would go on a day that the park opens the earliest. I think it's much harder for people to get up for some of those early mornings.

Most of the rides will accommodate 3 people. I ride the Fantasyland rides with DD8 and DD3. I can't think of any that we didn't fit in. On some, DD8 might ride in a different row to make it more comfortable (like Alice or Pooh), but we are still in the same ride vehicle.

Gadget's Coaster would be one that only 2 can fit in one row.

Yeah, most of the rides at DLR will fit 3 people. Of course, it also depends on the size of the people. DH, DS and I can ride on almost all the rides together. DH and I are about average size (whatever that means, lol) and DS is 4 so it works for us. The bumper cars in bug's land and autopia are only for 2 people. Heimlich's chew chew train we only fit 2 across for each seat. I can't think of any others right now.
