I'm not exactly sure where this post belongs, so I'm going with the most traffic!:eek::eek:
So I'm due in 2 weeks (will be 38 weeks tomorrow). I have procrastinated mightily on some of the "must do" type things...you know, like packing my hospital bag, the diaper bag, finishing the nursery (though the main part of that is done), and oh yeah....cleaning the infant carrier and stroller.
So today, when we got home from running errands, I took apart DD's Regent and decided to wash the cover, as it desperately needs it. I had to finally lug the huge beast of a seat into the house as the 100 degree stifling temp in the garage wasn't helping matters.
Then, I figured I'd tackle washing that car seat cover and the infant carrier cover and stroller cover all at once. Well, after digging the carrier and stroller out of the (jam-packed) basement, which at least thankfully is much cooler, I spent at least 40 minutes trying to take the covers off of said carrier (Graco Snugride) and matching travel system stroller. By far, the stroller was the worst. Apparently I never had to wash that cover :innocent:
and all I can say is that, if by some miracle, I can even get it back on, if this new little guy poops or pukes in it.........
We're just buying a new stroller!!!!;)
And now, for a quick question, which I will cross-post in some other spot....
On the Graco snugride (think 5 years ago) infant carrier, is there a way to take off the fabric from the canopy/shade to wash it? I sure couldn't see a way, but after being in the basement for several years, I'd really like to.
Thanks, if you've made it this far!
Christina...who may just go insane today!
