We will be travelling soon to WDW with our then 3-month old DD. I am paranoid about her being in the sun while we are there. We will be using a Chicco Cortina stroller, but I would like to use a sunshade attachment so she will be more protected from the sun. I was just wondering if we should get the Protect A Bub deluxe 3-in-1 sunshade that completely covers the stroller

Or would a sunshade extender like the classic Protect A Bub or Rayshade suffice?

We went to WDW in January when our baby was 9 months old and the Rayshade worked great for us (we used it on an umbrella stroller, the First Years Ignite). It's a generous size and our baby was young/short enough, that we had no problem keeping her in the shade. I'm sure you could get by with just the classic version.

Also, I would recommend getting a stroller fan, if you don't already have one. I got this one and liked it: Dreambaby Stroller Fan (http://www.amazon.com/Dreambaby-Stroller-Fan-White-Blue/dp/B0043IS18I) (the price is $9.99 from Amazon with free super saver shipping, but you have to click on this link (http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B0043IS18I/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new) to see it). And I don't know if this will be your first time to WDW with a baby/stroller, but a tip that I really liked was to decorate our stroller (http://wdwstrollers.com/decorate-your-stroller-to-stand-out/), so we could easily identify it. Nothing over-the-top, just a sign on the back of it saying, "The [Blank] Family stroller," with a picture of our favorite character, Sorcerer Mickey. :D
