Ds3 will be 3 in 6 days. He is ERF in my van and our truck. He is ff in dh's car because dh will not leave his seat in rf because it hits his arm/shoulder and bugs him . I need his seat to be installed in dh's car at all times since ds3 has ended up at my inlaws or a friends many times without notice when I have had to deal with other things (usually ds1's issues at school or an emergency dr appt) and dh picks him up after work those days. Dh has no desire to learn the proper way to install his carseat so ff it is in his car.
Anyways, my issue is I need to have 6 car seats for my kids and my daycare kids. The ONLY way they fit with ds3 rf is him in his MA70 rf outboard pass side, rf tribute in the middle, ff CarGo drivers side. I have tried the MR, CA, Scenera, EFTA and TFP in that spot and various other spots in my van (03 caravan with 2 3rd row benches.) The only one that fits and allows me to get the CarGo in on the drivers side is the MA70. Ds3 has been really complaining/screaming for the past few weeks about his legs cramping, to the point of me having to pull over and let him stretch on a 30 minute drive. He does sometimes put his feet up on the seat back/headrest to stretch but is still not happy. He can't hang his feet over the sides comfortably. The picture in my siggy is a few months old and he had a growth spurt-all in his legs. I have continually said that I will not turn him until next March when he is 3.5 and the winter is over. Now I am not sure what to do. The seats I have are in my siggy plus a tribute and scenera for 2 of my daycare kids. I have tried every combo in every position and nothing fits. So do I turn him so he is not in pain or keep him ERF with him screaming in pain? I feel like I am in a no win situation .
