    Another question for a different friend!

    My Friend has a 5 month old baby riding in an infant seat. She often takes the baby in her mom's car as well and she currently doesn't have a seat. She would like one for that car. I suggested she get a toddler seat (RF obviously) so it will last longer. I suggested a Britax but she said...

    frayed strap question for a friend

    My friend's ds (almost 3) is in a Britax Boulevard 65. A mouse got in the car and nibbled the strap in one place. Can just the straps be replaced on this seat? If so, where do we order them? If not is it garbage? Thanks!

    High weight and harness height help please!

    My DD is 6 and weighs about 45lbs, I want to keep her in a 5 point. Right now she's in a TF (and hates it, hurts her bum) and has a bit of room left in the top slot. Our problem is that our car (2003 Toyota Sequoia) says to defer to the seat for how long to use latch and my seats say to defer...

    So my little girls are close to outgrowing our current seats. One is in a MA and the other is in oops... I just forgot the name! It's some kinda cheapy thing I bought from Wal Mart for our most recent Mexico trip. We also have a TruFit but they both hate it, they say it hurts their bums...

    LATCH question

    So Enna is now 41 lbs and in an MA (though I may move her soon as she's pretty tall). I have looked through my car owners manual (Toyota Sequoia) and the MA manual and I can't find anything on LATCH limits. Please help! I love the MA install with latch but I'm not totally satisfied with the...

    LATCH limits

    I'm just wondering if anyone knows how long I can latch in my Toyota Sequoia. I looked in the manual but couldn't find anything one way or another. Enna is 40 lbs (or so) and riding in the third row in an MA. Do I need to phone Toyota? Will they even know? Any advice would be great, thanks!

    Vent new york times best sellers sets our cause waaaay back

    Has anyone else read the book "Freakonomics"? I'm so mad! Pg. 153 and I quote "The data show that car seats are, at best, nominally helpful. It is certainly safer to keep a child in the rear seat than on a lap in the front seat, where in the event of an accident he essentially becomes a...

    Question travelling outside Canada

    We will be going to Mexico for 3 weeks in January and I need some car seat advice. My dd's will be 4 and almost 6, right now they are 35 #'s and 40 #'s and riding in an MA and a TrueFit. The True fit is way to big to take on a plane (in my experience the MA barely fit) and they both hate it...

    Question I hate my true fit. What now?

    I have two dd's currently riding ff in our car (well 4, but the older ones are fine). One is 5.5 yo and 39 lbs, the other is almost 4 and about 35 lbs. We have an MA and a true fit. At first we had Imogen (younger dd) in the true fit as we got the MA first and Enna (older dd) was already...

    truefit hurting her....?

    So my dd#4 rides rf in a TF, she's 2.5yo (turning 3 in Oct.). She HATES the car. She screams, cries and complains almost every time we go anywhere, even for a 10 minute drive. It's not because she's rf I'm sure (though it bugs her if we comment on something she can't see) but I'm thinking it...

    SS1 harness question

    A friend of mine had a baby 2 days ago and I went to see them at the hospital. I was there when they were getting ready to leave so I helped with the carseat. Fortunately it was my old seat, unfortunately they had packed the manual away. Anyway, their baby is much tinier than mine was and even...
