    2018 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid and Britax Advocate, Chicco My Fit questions.

    Hello, We just purchased a Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid today. I went to put in our seats and I have 2 issues. 1. We have a Britax Advocate that can be rear facing teathered (I have checked this several times and we are good there) but I don't know where would be best when using latch, in the...

    If I love my Britax Chaparone, what seat should I replace it with?

    Hello there! I have a Britax Chaparone that is going to expire in September. I am a foster mom and I am needing a seat for me that is an infant seat. This seat will not be used when the child in not in my care (so I will keep track of it at all times and know how it is treated). Budget is not...

    Hello, I have a 3 year old about 28 lbs child, a 4 year old about 35 lbs child and an almost 9 year old 55 (guess) pound child. The 3 year old is in a Britax 85 SICT seat, the 4 year old is in a Clicktight Britax Advocate (forward facing), and my 9 year old is in no booster or seat. Typically I...

    Has anyone seen a shower cap style blanket for older children?

    One that would fit on a convertible or harnessed booster seat? My oldest (6 years old in a Frontier 85 SICT) is ALWAYS cold in the car. I try not to let him wear anything other then a fleece pullover when he is in his seat. He isn't ready for seatbelt training as he still frequently falls...

    Do not all insurance companies restrict to only US approved seats?

    I called our insurance company this evening to ask about car seats as I am going to have to get one for my baby soon. In keeping with our 5 year plan (hoping DH will find a job where we can move) I wanted something that potentially could work in both Europe and the US. The insurance salesman...

    Anyone know about old carseats?

    I found this old photo of me in a carseat and I was wondering what it was (kind of seat, any specs or whatever info). I was born in October of 1976 so I assume this was taken in early 1977. Thank you for any help you can give me. :)

    What convertible should my baby go into next?

    My son is a year old this month and is 18+ lbs and is at the highest slot (or mark) on his Chaperone but he just got there so he has a bit of time yet. Our requirements are - some side impact protection - anti rebound rear facing - comfort (kid is sweaty and actually hates getting in the...

    Question about Britax Chaperone...

    My son just turned 11 lbs today so I went to adjust the straps on his carseat. I made sure to take out the manuel so to do it correctly. My straps don't look like the ones pictured (page 49). There is an added sewed bit at the bottom of the straps that make it so I can't put the bracket through...

    Chaperone install question...

    I still have about 7 weeks till I am going to be home with my newbie but I decided to install his carseat rather then having the dog look at it and get it hairy. Eww!! Anyway, when I was installing it I noticed that the level of it was rather crazy. If I pushed on the front edge (front meaning...

    Chaperone question...

    Today I called Britax to suggest that they change the name of the "low birth weight infant foam" to just "newborn foam" as children are rarely above the 11 lbs mark at birth. They told me to email my suggestion to them which I did. However I got a strange reply back and now I am confused. I...

    Britax Chaperone cowmooflage bye bye?

    Today we went to Buy Buy Baby to test out the Chaperone in our Odyssey to make sure DH wouldn't have his nose pushed up against the windshield. It looks like it will work great for us!! :dance: :jive: When we were asking the sales guy about price matching, I said that I wanted the Cowmooflage...

    What is the Chaperones front to back length?

    I keep seeing that the Chaperone will not fit in every vehicle, but I don't see anything about how long it is so I can see if it would fit in my vehicle. The closest I have got is the seat dimensions of 30 inches deep. Is this how big it is front to back (installed with base)? I have an Odyssey...

    Vehicle car seats and over weight people...

    I am sure this question isn't PC but I have been wondering it for a few years now. I am hoping someone has the answer for me. What are typical car seats rated for? I heard that it was only tested for a 180 lbs adult. Is that true? What if a person is twice that weight? Could they potentially...

    Is onboard 35 air being replaced soon?

    And if so with what? I was looking around at infant seats recently and I saw that this gets good reviews. I love the price point though I would gladly pay more if I thought I was getting more. However I noticed that many of the colors were out everywhere. To me this tells me A) problems with...

    Britax Advocate questions...

    I am 14 weeks pregnant so I have a while to decide this. :) My DH and I are looking at the Advocate for our newbie. Our older son (4 years old) is in a Frontier SICT so this seemed to be the closest to that. We drive a 2007 Odyssey so space isn't a concern. My questions are: 1) When would you...

    Snap and go that works with the Via/Newport?

    I am newly pregnant but I know already that I want this seat (been planning this pregnancy for years). Is there a frame stroller that fits this seat? I am not asking for perfection, just something my baby will not fall out of. Thanks for your help!
