Looks like she is using the BabiesRUs freebie stroller — seriously. I think it is the one you get when you spend $75

I agree that cheap strollers are wonderful and it is refreshing to see a celeb use them. My only issue is at 5'10", the handles are too low so I am all hunched over. If only they made a cheap stroller for the taller parents, I would be in heaven!

Dawna, I was just going to comment on the stroller, too!

A celeb using an inexpensive umbrella stroller? What is the world coming to?

Nothing wrong with either approach – expensive vs. inexpensive baby gear as long as the kid is well cared for and you can afford what you are buying!

Oh my! Look at the stroller Lauren is using! This has to be the first of its kind I've seen in a long time amidst all those hundreds of dollars worth of strollers and prams.

That's what my parents used, the lightweight cheap kind with the U-shaped handles that you just fold up and throw in the back of the trunk. I turned out okay and Orson will be okay too without a fancy stroller or pram.

Kudos to Lauren for showing there is actually an economical, safe, and efficient way to tote the kid around!
