I went with rear facing car seat (convertable i think they are called...can be changed to forward facing when bubs is old enough) mainly because they get longer use out of it. A capsule only lasts til a certain point then you will need a car seat anyhow.

I dont find it hard getting a newborn out of rear facing...they are so tiny its easy! Its when they get to DD2 age (9 months) that it gets harder!

I have a normal pram that has attatchments to enclose bub when in the pram to keep them warm and snug.
