My 17lbs 3 month old neice, is about to outgrow the snugride(Im not sure of her height) that I loaned my brother, she has about 1.5 in from the top of the shell. So I am giving them the comfortsport that my DD no longer uses(they cant really afford much, I gave them ALL my baby stuff from DD), so I sit her in the seat to see how she fits, and OMG! She is 1/2 an away from being even with the middle slots.
Im gonna see if my mom will go in half with me and get them the EFTA. I hate the CS anyway. I was just glad to still have it so that I could help out my brother and his girlfriend.

My neice is so cute and chubby!! I never had a chubby baby:love:

That's how big my babies were.

Both were over 19 pounds at 4 months, outgrew the Snugride at about 3.5 months and were 100% breastfed!

See my siggy to see how lean they are now!

I think they would really like the Triumph. It holds the baby much like the Snugride. I had the older version Triumph for my son. We lovingly refer to it as the bucket seat. It was a great seat. I didn't buy one for little sis because I had a blvd to pass down. Although she uses the old Triumph as a back up in my mom's car. (I have almost 2 more years before it expires just in case anyone is worried.;))

Sounds like my DD, she was very close to outgrowing the Snugride at 3.5 months, at 4 months was 18 pounds and 27". Most of which was torso. :rolleyes: I found this photo, it was the last time we had her in the Snugride.

That's awesome you are helping them out and buying an EFTA. Sounds like she'll need a lot of growing room in a seat!

You love chubby babies! Here's my DS at 3 months, born 9/18. This was taken at our ambulance christmas party. He blew out of his SnugRide. We were using his FPSVD already.

For you or for the baby? ;)

I was the doula for a mom that gave birth to a baby on Tuesday. He's 9 lbs, 1.3 oz. Thank God I convinced her to get the SS1! :thumbsup:
