So I'm all psyched to get a Nautilus (when DD outgrows her MA any day now) DH likes it and if we like it a lot we are going to get 2!!
BUT I have one reservation...something I guess I need explained to me (probably the reason I haven't used a booster yet).
I remember reading that the Nautilus weighs about 19lbs. If we cannot LATCH it (or other boosters) in to the car how is this safe in a crash?? I mean if you are driving along at a high speed and are in a head on collision, isn't the extra 19lbs of booster seat going to force your child's body MORE into the seat belt? How does this work?? I would think a booster LATCH'd in like part of the car would cut down the amount of extra weight slamming against your kid.
HELP??? I really need this explained to me before I feel comfortable buying a non-LATCH booster!
Thanks so much in advance!!!
