August 13th , Car Seat Check-up Event: 90% of car seats are installed incorrectly. Is yours? A certified Car Seat Technician will be at our Public Health Center (851 East West Connector) from 1-4pm to do safety checks on seats that are already installed OR to install a seat provided by the vehicle owner."
That is from the Health Dept...my friend had told me they installed her seat for her when she was pregnant. I know that they installed my sisters seat for her when she was pregnant 8 years ago and used carpet/rug gripper under the seat and a pool noodle and did it for her. (I have now moved out of town since then.) but when my friend first came home from the hospital she told me the health department had installed her seat for her...I looked at in her car and had to play with it(Graco SR base) it had the gripper under it with the recline out and pool noodles under it!!! So I drug her outside(don't forget she had just came home the day before!) and RIPPED the gripper out from under the seat and when she saw how loose the base was she freaked out. So I got dad out there to install the seat tightly and gave her the pool noodles from under my sons seat(he at the time was 11 months old and it was a 3 noodle wrap.) and had him put the recline on the base up because I do not like the way it reclined on her seat and dad got the install super tight and nice!! well they went back to this car seat check and had someone install the seat for them again!!! UGHHH!! people learn how to install your own seats!!
Im sorry this started as a Question but I got lost and this is now a Vent...
