    MI: small car, 3-across, under $4000

    I'm going to need to upgrade from my '97, 2-door Hyundai Accent in the near future, and I'll be needing something that is three-across friendly. Any suggestions? I know my tiny budget will mean that I'm going to be shopping for something around 10 years old. Is there any hope? :o

    "Don't leave babies in seat more than necessary" Sources?

    Does anyone have any sources on why you shouldn't leave babies in the infant seat any more than necessary when outside of a vehicle? I know there can be a risk of head deformation, and the angle can be tough for very young infants. Plus the fall risk if the seat is on a high surface, and...

    In Search Of JuJuBe Packabe, Between, or other (specific prints)

    I just started a new nannying job, and I've decided I need my own diaper bag. Plus now I have a good excuse to get a JJB. :rolleyes: I'd prefer a Packabe or a Between, but would also consider a Be Right Back or Be Hip. Prints I totally drool over are Evening Vines and JuJuBerry Squares. I...

    Toddler chest clip issues/escaping

    A friend of mine has asked me for suggestions on helping her keep her almost 2yo DS buckled up. He's FF in a Radian, and he keeps pushing down the chest clip, and wiggling an arm under the straps. Harness is correctly tightened. I'm going to suggest distractions, discipline (though at his age...

    Tether anchor in '97 VW Golf?

    My LATCH manual is still in the mail, could someone look up tether anchor info for a '97 VW Golf? According to the vehicle manual is seems like it comes with one tether anchor, and that if you need more than one the dealer will install them. But I can't fine ANY, so maybe the manual is just...

    No RF tether for infants?

    I think I read something on here a while back about how most people think a RF tether is WORSE for infants, that not having one? Something about the tether increasing neck load? :confused: I'm probably going to be helping my friends install their new Frontier (hopefully), and get their BV...

    Has anyone fit a Frontier and RF BV side by side??

    So... I know it would be different in different vehicles, but has anyone managed to fit a RF Boulevard right next to a Frontier?

    How would a newborn fit the the Triumph Advance?

    I'm trying to to find a seat that would be most cost effective for long term use for a family with a VERY small budget. They're thinking of skipping the infant seat and using a convertible from the start. The Radian is probably out of their budget, and the Triumph Advance may be too but at least...

    ERF and carsick? What do they do in Sweden?

    I was on another board promoting ERF and came across one lady who was extremely car sick as a young child and said that she would never have wanted to ride anywhere backwards and wouldn't want to do that to her kids. That got me thinking, what do people in Sweden do if they have a kid who gets...
