    Travel to Ireland

    I just pulled the trigger on tickets to Ireland for my sister's wedding this summer. We haven't made this trip as a family in over two years. At the time of travel, our girls will be 10, almost 8 and 4. This will be the first time in many years that we won't need to travel with 2 harnessed...

    Hypothetical untethered seat situation

    I need to put my kids 3 across in the second row of my 07 Ody this weekend. I had this great plan to put my 3 year old in the +1 seat so that her sisters wouldn't fight over who got to sit next to her - until I realized that there was no tether there. Not to mention that she will probably be...

    Help me decide which seat to travel with

    I have to fly to the east coast next week for a family funeral. I will likely be taking DD#3 (2years 11months, 34.8 lbs) with me. A family member will be picking me up at the airport, probably in 07/08 Toyota Yaris Sedan. 40 minute drive from airport to her house, 1 1/2 -2 hr drive from house...

    I just saw an IRL swedish seat!!!

    I never thought I would see an ERF child in central Indiana never mind a swedish seat! I was leaving dd's soccer game this morning and noticed that the car next to me had a 3 year old RF in what looked like a Britax seat. I commented to the Mom about how nice it was to see another older child...

    Help me get my Radian installed more upright in my '07 Odyssey

    I have dd#3's new radian rf in the driver side captain's chair of my '07 Odyssey (cloth seats). I can't seem to get a better angle than about 40degrees despite trying the tricks from the Radian upright install thread. I have the female part of the belt twisted 2.5 times (up to 3 is OK...

    Check my Radian Angle Please!

    I installed dd#3's (22 mo, 33lb) new Radian last week in my '07 Odyssey. Is this as upright as I'm going to be able to get it? It seems more upright when I first install it but then it 'settles' into a more reclined position. Is that normal? Excuse the mess, and the eyepatch stuck to the...

    New RF Seat for 33lb 22 Month Old

    DD3 is currently RF in a True Fit but I weighed her today at 32.8lb. Her weight gain has slowed down dramatically over the past few months, but I feel like I need to be prepared to order her next seat. I haven't measured her torso but it is fairly long. She wears 3T shirts and is approaching...

    I hate installing seats in DH's Passat!

    Dh has a 2001 Passat Wagon with leather seats, no LATCH. I always seem to have problems installing seats in there and I'm not sure why. Thankfully the two oldest are big enough to ride in boosters on the rare occasions they ride with him and I could always get the SS1 in well if he needed to...

    Quick Help! International travel tomorrow

    I booked a flight to Ireland today to see my brother who is seriously ill. I am leaving tomorrow with my 15 month old who has her own seat on all flights. However, we do not have a window seat in which to put her car seat RF. Is the airline required to make that accomodation for me? All...

    True Fit Dilema

    I got my Monet True Fit on Friday and played with it over the weekend. I loved this seat - on paper. IRL, I'm just not so sure. I had a hard time getting it installed with enough recline (RF @ 35deg) in the captain's chairs of my 07 Odyssey. I need to see if I can find some pool noodles...

    True Fit questions

    I think I have decided that I HAVE to have the True Fit in Monet for DD#3's (6mo, 21.5lb, 28 in) next seat. I played with it a bit at Target today and put DD#1 (6y.o, 49lb, 46in) in it. I couldn't believe how well she fit in it - still some room in the harness and plenty of shoulder space...
