"Hello!" from a Newbie :)

Hi there! I've posted several times already, but haven't bothered to introduce myself yet.

I have two children..DS will be 5 in July, and DD will be 2 in June. Our van was rear-ended recently....which brings me here since I needed new seats. Should have just been easy to replace what I already had (older Roundabout and Nautilus), but there's so many choices! Currently I'm debating between RA55 and True Fit.

DD has been potty trained for the past 2 months...and since I can no longer obsess over which cloth diaper is the cutest or most functional, this website fills my need to obsess over something quite well :)

I love that there are like-minded people on here...so many of my friends are car seat idiots. I've run the risk of sounding completely snobbish and know-it-all ish many times correcting them on their seat usage, strap tightness, or booster usage at age 2, etc...and nothing drives me more batty than seeing perfectly smart, educated parents risking their babies lives. It just makes no sense to me. At least I know MY babies are safe :)

Well, once I finally decide on my seats, I'm sure I'll be sticking around :) Thanks for all your help so far!

Welcome! :happy-wavehello:

Oh, and I can totally relate to the no more cloth diapering thing and needing something else to fill that obsession :p

Me too! Since I'm already obsessed with car seats I have no idea what will become of me when DS potty trains.

Welcome OP! I am sorry to hear about your accident but I'm glad it landed you here.
