stars & strollers movie screening etiquette?

[janiejones]

we're heading for our first movie soon, any advice???

wait, you mean taking the baby with you? at most I have seen people just bring the carrier with them, not the stroller.

I went to some when DS was a newborn. Lots of people brought strollers and either sat in the first row of the staidum style seats (so the stroller was below them) or left the stroller on the side and held the baby. I just carried DS in and nursed him until he fell asleep.

If there are older kids they just run around.

I'm going to be a debbie downer a bit here, but I would think about or consider at least getting something for the baby's ears. Movies are so incredibly loud these days.

At the stars and strollers screenings the volume is set lower than normal so no worries about babies ears.

Oh good. I never took my girls, so i wasn't sure.

also, isn't that the point of this thing anyway? so you can go see a movie without having to worry about the other people in the theater?

Gotta say- there is a difference between "stars and strollers screenings" and "Stars and Strollers screenings".  I thought you were asking about the etiquette of taking a stroller to a movie, and was confused about the stars part.
