I have twins that are 7 months old. Will it work for our infants without buying extra accessories? (babyset, etc)

In my experience with my 6 month old I need the extra accessory piece of the clip in booster seat. The straps are not strong enough to hold my guy in place and so he uses the seat as the needed support until strong enough to hold himself via straps.

I would not think so... I think the chair works fine without accessories for slightly older babies If I had to guess I'd say a year plus. But we only got this when our son was almost two years old so i don't have personal experience of the chair for younger babies.

my 6 1/2 month old has full head control and can sit up unassisted (but sometimes wobbly) and we have no issues with the chair as it is (it comes with the straps shown). i didn't purchase the babyset because of all of the negative reviews about getting them in and out. and i also don't want to buy more stuff! just make sure their feet hit the feet rest below and they're strapped in securely and pushed right up to the table.

No , I would make sure you had some kind of safety belt attached as they ( babies ) are apt to wiggle ! My daughter was stable and reasoned with enough by the age of 2 but before that I would use a safety belt

As JLo C. said, as ong as they can sit up and hold up their heads no problem. The seat is somewhat slippery as it is all wood and would be a long fall if they did wriggle out. Look for the attachments on craigslist and such. We are going to make our own cushion for it. Our 2 year old uses it but our one year old is still in the regular high chair.

I tried it on my 3 month old who is 13 lbs. it's very big and bulky. It does tighten enough so you could use it but there are other, more comfortable options for an infant. It is better for a bigger child.

I have twins. I strongly recommend the Graco Snugride 30 Infant Carrier until they are at least six months. You will not want to wake sleeping babies when you get home! And the infant support on the Combi pushes small babies heads forward, which is not good for NICU babies. I speak from experience...I have twins, one was in NICU, and used to foster newborns. I have never had a baby under ten pounds that fit well in this. Three across would be hard to buckle, unless you can reach through the trunk or over the top from the front seat. The buckle pieces have to be overlapped to snap in together at the crotch. That being said, we love this seat for small spaces! My first born used this seat in our sports car for several years. Very light weight and convenient. Can be a pain to install rear facing, if you don't have a tether point. If you buy these, you will want to go to a car seat installation station (check with your hospital). Also, I'll warn you that your babies will likely outgrow these seats by height before they are old enough to use a booster. I ended up buying Britax Boulevards for mine. They have higher quality fabric that is way easier to wipe to clean (you do not want to have to remove the covers when they poop through their clothes or spit up). They also work fine for tiny babies, if you absolutely don't want to purchase infant carriers. Three across all rear facing, all forward facing, and any combination of rear/forward works fine with Britax in our GMC Terrain. Combis are slightly narrower and take up less front to back space, so if you're driving a tiny car, these are for you! If you have a retailer near you, most baby stores will let you take them to the car to try them out. I got a great deal on my Graco carriers at Kohls w/cashback and 30% off. Amazon does occasionally have great deals in the open box section, too. (My other must purchase items for multiples are an Ergobaby Backpack and Podee Feeding System) Congratulations! It will get easier around six months!

Yes I am using it with my twins they are 2 months old now and I love it! They were 5lbs 11oz & 6lbs 5oz at birth and I first only used the one side together now they are both about 10lbs and sleep in their own sides and still have lots of room to play together when awake.

Hi, in my opinion there's nothing in the set that an 18mth old would have any issues with. He would probably love to join in! The parts are big and its easy to clip together. I hope this helps with your decision.

I'd definitely consider getting this in your situation. I have a 4 year old, 2 year old and 6 month old. I love having the option to put them all in the stroller, especially if I need to make sure they stay close. A lot of times, my 4 year old likes riding on it with his brothers. I have the infant seat adapter, so I've had the baby in it since the beginning. It is big, but it really is a great stroller!

It's pretty small. Depending on the size of the baby, it could work. You have to assemble it.

I personally didn't use mei tai carriers til my baby was older. There's ways to use it with a newborn. Check out thebabywearer.com

Yes. I got this for my daughter when she was 3.5 and she's 5 now and still enjoys. I do think it's appropriate for 2.5 year old because they will grow with it. There are so many accessory sets. It's fun to get different ones for birthdays, etc.

Yep. I have the stroller too and I love the set. It's easy to use and makes a great travel system for infant and an older child.

I have twins and this stroller is amazing!!! You can call Bulbletide for the info on the car seats. They have an adaptor you can buy for certain brands but I never used it. The seats fully recline so I lay my boys down in their bellies to nap. They are 9mo now and we use the stroller almost daily. Congrats! And best of luck! Twins are amazing.

It is not as big as a pack n' play, but I think it would work for twins if they are not too big. My son is almost 2 and he can still fit in it, although probably not for too much longer.

Yeah, I wouldn't want to put an infant in this seat. Maybe by the time they're a year old it might be different but there's no padding or head support, so I would definitely get something separate for a baby. I used the Fisher Price Space Saver high chair when my little one was really little.

Infants... as in under 6 months? If they can't strongly sit up by themselves without their heads bobbing around, then yes, you will need more than the stroller. You should probably get the car seat adapter as well.

Absolutely! My boys are 19 months apart and we've used this stroller from the beginning. There is an adapter you can buy to click an infant carrier into the stroller. We used it until our youngest outgrew his infant carrier car seat and then switched to the second seat. Of all the purchases we've made along the way, this stroller is by far my favorite! I can't even imagine using a bulky side by side stroller. How do you get through doors with those things?! Well worth the cost in my opinion!

The only place that might work is where the three instruments are hanging but my guess would be that they would slip down the sides and would not help with the baby trying to reach and play with them. The microphone part might work also but again I think the links would slip down and no reaching or grabbing would be available to the baby.

I have twins and they are 9 months. We haven't used it in quite a while. I would say, get an exercise ball instead and save your money. I just don't think you will use it that long.
