I'm currently trying to decide if I should get a carrycot to go with my pushchair, or an attachment for the capsule. Originally I had decided to get a carrycot, coz of the whole issue with leaving baby in the capsule for too long, so thought it would be better to move baby. But now I have learned about the baby's back being in a C curve when they are born, so wonder if the capsule is a better idea. I am stuck and don't know how to decide! ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

We got a bassinet thing for the pram rather than a capsule attachment as I didn't like the idea of her being in the capsule for hours. Plus we had a November baby and she just got so hot in the capsule with all the padding. I also found the carry cot handy for staying somewhere overnight or visiting people in general. ------------- Here we go again, another baby on it's way!

The problem with the capsule is the angle their head flops to with gravity. I'd go carrycot! -------------    Jan '13
