"Pre-baby, leaving the apartment just wasn&amp;#039;t a big deal. I took for granted the fact that I could go to the grocery store or the gym without a second thought. Now, walking the dog is a major production. In fact, I can count the number of times I&amp;#039;ve walked the dog since Emmett&amp;#039;s arrived\u2014on one hand. I&amp;#039;m a little bit ashamed to admit it, but unless my husband is home, I kind of dread taking Emmett outside! I love our stroller, the Bob Revolution jogger. But until he&amp;#039;s five months, Emmett has to ride in his car seat, which snaps in the stroller with a special adaptor. The stroller itself is pretty huge; naturally with the car seat, it&amp;#039;s even more of a monstrosity. If we were in the suburbs it would be fine, but Brooklyn stores don&amp;#039;t have room for my giant stroller! Which leaves me with one of our two carriers, the Moby or the Ergo. I like both, but I&amp;#039;ll like them more when Emmett&amp;#039;s a little sturdier. Now, I feel like I stop every 10 steps to see if he&amp;#039;s breathing and adjust his posture. Since leaving the apartment is such a fiasco, I&amp;#039;ve mostly been holed up indoors for the past seven weeks. I try to at least bring Emmett in the back yard every day, but even that doesn&amp;#039;t always happen. How can I motivate myself to get the baby outside? Or is it okay to have an indoor baby for the first few months? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
