Flying to Europe on Saturday with a 17 month old, umbrella stroller?

When we came to the US my husband was with us and we brought a baby backpack type carrier. He went back to Europe 5 weeks ago and it just hit me the other night that I can't put her in the carrier by myself! So now I am wondering if I could take an umbrella stroller that folds into nothing, really, and store it in the overhead compartment? And would it be considered a carry on? I am flying to Chicago on a small plane, and I would imagine I would have to "check it" before I boarded the plane. But on the Transatlantic flight it will be a 777 and I know it would fit in the overhead.

I just need something to motor through the airports with her, thanks for any help or advice!

    You can bring the stroller, declare it at check-in and have the staff place a luggage tag on it. You can take it all the way to the aircraft door and leave it with a staff there, they will store it in the luggage compartment and you receive it when you land or in the baggage carousel at the airport, depending on the airline procedure. That's at least how it goes in our airport.

    Just inform and check-in staff and ask the procedure.
