Sleeping in a Radian?

I've seen some people comment that they are concerned about FF kids not having enough "side" to sleep comfortably, so I had my DS take a pic while we were driving home today...

That's Macha, sound asleep. :) She slept in the Radian on the plane, too, but I had it reclined so I figured that helped. This is in our Astro van, and it's very upright! (And yes, her head is shaved. She asked to have it short like her brothers, and is quite pleased with it! :) )

Kira is a big car sleeper and will sleep in Radian. But I noticed she doesn't fall asleep as quickly in the Radian as she did in the Marathon. We'll probably put the Radian in DH's car and move the Marathon back into mine since she's in my car more often.

Great pics - love the haircut! My DS falls asleep in the Radian no problem, in fact just last night we headed off for a 10 minute drive to gymnastics, and he was chatting away...midsentence he kind of faltered off, and I looked back a minute later to see him fast asleep. If only he would do the same at home in his bed:p

She's such a beautiful girl. I love that you respect her enough to let her call her hair her own :love:

Bean the First always sleeps quite well in his FF Radian.

She is beautiful! DS has fallen asleep in the Radian many times, he falls asleep in the car even if we only are driving for 5min.

How sweet. And I love how you let her shave her head.

My dd sleeps in her radian too, but takes much longer to fall asleep in it than she did in the MA. We have the Comfy Soft for her though that we use since we had bought it fro ds anyways. The toddler head support is really nice actually. :)

My 4 yr old easily and comfortably crashes out in her FF Radian too. She has the 80 with the body pillow moved up for head support..but I really don't think it would matter to her if it weren't there.

Boo and Bug have had no trouble falling asleep in their Radians.
Both have the body support pillow things though.
