DD uncomfortable in GN

My 6 yr old has been complaining lately when she rides in her GN that her back hurts.

Recently we took a long cross-country trip and she had a red mark on one spot on her back, but I checked the seat and there was nothing that appeared unusual - nothing sticking out, etc. I thought maybe it was just because it was such a long trip, but now she has been complaining on shorter in-town trips, too.

It is installed with a seatbelt, but the seatbelt lays pretty flat, so I don't think it's that. I'm stumped. :confused:

Has anyone else's kids complained of their backs hurting in the GN?
I dont' want to add anything aftermarket - but is there anything I could do to make it more comfortable for her?

Megan complains about riding for long trips in her Nauti. I think it is because her legs hang which causes stress on her lower back. She has had a red mark on her back too, but I haven't been able to feel anything that might be causing it.

Hmmm - I checked the LATCH and it seems to be fine. I know one issue is when she gets hot and sweaty it seems to bother her a bit more.
