It was so much easier. We really noticed how much more convenient it was during Christmas shopping when everyone else was lugging around those huge cumbersome strollers. We were able to dash in and out of stores. We did get an umbrella stroller for extended walking, but we really didn't use it that much. We chose babywearing. It was so much easier.

At 3mos in we have yet to use a stroller or wish we had one. In fact, as we go grocery shopping, traveling, out for dinner or out for a walk we are increasingly relieved that we did it this way. We saw so many friends who bought 3 or more strollers (the highest was 6!) and it just seemed expensive and wasteful. We preferred to take our time and find one good stroller that we can use for years. So, we saved our money and waited, choosing to get a double Chariot for jogging and biking and continue babywearing for all the rest. In regards to fitness, my biceps have never looked better.
