hi all, i havent been in for a long time!! but after reading a few threads i feel right back at home and am loving all your comments!
my DD will be 8 months old this week, and is currently 14lb 11oz and 26" long. she is currently RF (OBVIOUSLY!!) in a Combi Coccoro in my Nissan Versa. in daddy's car (old honda civic- possibly soon to be a 4 door truck instead), she is RF in a Peg Perego Primo Viaggio infant seat, which will expire this november.
read: Mommy gets to buy a new car seat!!!!
i know my LO is tiny, and it may not make the most sense to buy her a humungous marathon....
but the two car seats on my mind are the marathon or the true fit premiere.
i am thinking i will have a van in the next couple of years, and wouldnt a marathon fit easily in a van seat? do most van seats have LATCH? (my very nice but dumb brand new car doesnt have LATCH in the middle seat grrr!!) and even if i dont get a new vehicle, i would think the marathon and a coccoro would fit together in the backseat of almost any car! i'm also thinking the true fit would be smaller and possibly a better fit in any vehicle (esp given that the headrest comes off and we wouldnt need to use that for a good while!)
which one is easier to install with a seat belt in most cars?
any thoughts on which one is more user friendly?
any other suggestions give my DD's stats and our vehicles?
THANKS you guys rock!!
