ds went for his first ever ride in a booster today, he did so well, I was so proud of him
He sat up straight, he didn't move out of position, he didn't reach for anything, he was awesome
We moved him into a Frontier (harnessed) in my car which he rides in 99.5% of the time, but I cant get a good install with it in any of the other 3 cars he very occasionally rides in. I always leave my car with them, with the Frontier in it (rather than a badly installed seat in their cars), but come april I wont be able to do that, so I thought I would see how he does in a booster, after reading cautionary stories on here I was worried he wouldn't be ready, but he was
I will however wait until he turns 4 before I let him go into a booster in anyone elses car. He'll be 18kgs/40 lbs by then (the booster I borrowed had a minimum weight of 15kg (33lbs). Its just nice to know that he did really well and in an emergency or when he is with them he will sit well in a booster & that my Mum, Dad or Brother can use it without having to know either how to install a seat or having a seat with a bad install in their car, or needing my car
Now I get to go booster shopping for the .5% of the time he will be in someone elses car.
oh and I really need to update my siggy
