Here's my info, maybe you all can help. I'm going NUTS trying to figure out seats for my kids. We are getting a new (to us) minivan so size isn't an issue anymore:thumbsup:
I am due in May (summer baby, keep that in mind). It gets hot here (New Mexico). I have pretty tiny kids (DS was 7 even and DD was 5 pounds 5 oz at 35 weeks). There is a chance I'll have this one early as well, although hopefully not before 36 weeks. I'm guessing it will be around 6 pounds (hopefully).
I'm short and I don't plan on carrying an infant seat once the kid weighs more than about 15 pounds. Too heavy and awkward. I've considered skipping the infant seat altogether, BUT I'd like to have it for church and other times I need somewhere for baby to "be" but not in the sling (if I'm teaching a church class etc.)
I've been eyeing the keyfit Miro, as well as the new snugride Mickey (only 22 pounds though). DD was in a snugride in the fuego print and was MISERABLE. Too plasticy.
So I need suggestions, ideas etc. If I go with a seat that is too big for the baby, I do have a friend who's keyfit I could borrow to get the baby home from the hospital (and then we just wouldn't go anywhere until it got a smidge bigger anyway).
