Sofi's Radian has been compressing the seat cushion and reclining more. It's really really getting annoying. She's only 29 pounds, how on earth is it supposed to get a child to 40 or 45 pounds?!
Here is our current set up:
2nd row:
Driver's side- empty for flipping
Center- Sofi in Radian
Passenger's side- BabyS in a Titan
The 3rd row doesn't much matter. whatever changes I make, won't really effect them much.
Here are the options I see....
Put BabyS in the Radian center, she's lighter maybe she won't recline it so much. Put Sofi in the MR driver's side. Leave passenger's side empty for flipping. If I put the MR in the center, we can't flip the outboard seat. Now I don't have a back up seat for Sofi, unless she happens to still fit in the Titan in my DB and SILs cars (she fits in the Titan outboard in my van, because it's more upright.... but barely in the center because it's naturally more reclined).
Sell the Radian and buy a TF. It's tall enough, but will Sofi gain 6 pounds within the next year? She gained 4 pounds in 6 months, but only 5 in the past 12 months. I can't buy another seat unless I sell something to fund it. Money will be tight, at least through the end of the year. Sofi could stay center in the TF.
But Sofi in a Titan outboard, and BabyS in a Titan center. Keep the MR as a back up seat.
Sell the RN and buy a MA....or.....? to keep Sofi center.
What other options do I have to keep her center?? THe EFTA won't fit next to BabyS' Titan. I don't like the Uptown, and doubt I will like the Avenue either.
I really want to keep Sofi in the center.
Any other ideas??? Would installing the RN with seatbelt change it enough to keep it from compressing the seat?
