Either it's that flimsy or I'm just fat

:ROTFLMAO: I had to do a little car seat move around this morning with intentions of having to pick up 3 extra kids today (so after turning around the MA for one girl, removing my installed infant carrier and installing the Scenara temporarily for my DD I find out I didn't need to do anything :mad: ) Anyway, while installing the Scenara I kneeled into the seat and felt the whole thing bend in!! :eek: Ok, I know I'm 9 months pregnant and weight 185 lbs but come on, what a way to make me feel fat!

Could it be from the heat? I was actually able to hold that seat at the base and the top and twist it without a lot of effort. I know it's been really humid and hot (oh gosh does a preggie know! :whistle: )

DD's seat does that - I think the bottoms are not very thick/reinforced, because in a crash, the seat bottom does have the force pulling on it like the back where the harness straps are, you know? I'm about the same weight as you are right now, although only 18 weeks preggo, lol! Now, I just knoe NOT to put my whole weight on her seat, or I put my weight acros the side also, where it is thicker and stronger.
