    Just look around, many lightweight stroller sdo recline. Just get one of these and lean it back a bit, baby will be fine.~congrats~

    Yes, you can use a lightweight stroller, even a cheap umbrella stroller. Just get the proper head support for the baby.

    graco makes “lite” strollers for infants. they are usually easy to fold and not as heavy as the larger strollers. if you’re asking about an umbrella stroller, these are not made for infants.

    Yes, some lightweight strollers are newborn-friendly and have the support that they need. I will edit with a link…

    I have a Graco and I absolutely LOVE it :-)

    You need a stronger stroller for a newborn baby than one you can just pick up at a drugstore. An infant needs proper support in the head and back. You need to think about this while buying a stroller. When your baby is older, light weight strollers are fine and more convienet, but at this early age they need something better than that.

    The combi cosmo is a great lightweight stroller that is easy to carry, fold, and travel with. If you are tall, you may not like this since the handle is too short and you may kick the back wheels at times. I’m 5′2 and this is the perfect shopping, traveling stroller for me.

    You might want to discuss these concern with your pediatrician. They can give appropriate and safe suggestion.
