I just got ds a GN and I need to move the crotch buckle and for the life of me I can not get it out to move it! Does anyone have a trick? It was not this hard w/ my first GN.

Thanks

Hi, I remember this being tough for some Nauti owners to do, and it seems to be harder on some Nautis than others for some reason. I found a previous thread with some hands on "how-to" suggestions from other Nauti owners at http://www.car-seat.org/showthread.php?t=37304 Hope this helps.

It looks like I may have one of the harder ones! I have already tried for a hour and my fingers are really sore! I know that my other one was really easy to do. I am here on vacation and the Walmart is too far`away to exchange it.

It just won't budge when I get it half way through.

Dh is already mad at me for buying it, and would love for me to return it so we won't have to take it back to Au after taking the blvd through the airport 8 times already!

I can no way get it out, so it looks like I will be calling Graco and have to get a new crotch buckle because I will have to cut this one off, untill then ds will have to use it and he will be sitting on the strap! Why can't they just leave it off and have you put it in the correct slot when you get it!

I leave for Austalia in a week and I am sure that I will not have the new one before I go.

I am so frustrated!!!!!!!!

Any other ides would be great.

I can not go out now and get a new one because it is snowing like heck here in Gig Harbor WA where it never really snows!! So their goes my shopping while I am home on vac and the hair dresser had to cancel my appt because of the weather!

Can you tell that I am not very happy right now!! I want to go out and I can't and this darn car seat does not help!!!

Argh, sorry to hear it's still so resistant to budging. :( I can only make sympathetic noises and bump this up for others to possibly make additional suggestions.
