Here is my story: I was one of those people that was looking forward to FF DD at age one. I started looking at new car seats in Feb. or so, and found this forum. Obviously I am SO SO happy that I did-I mean, she still only weighs 16 pounds so can you imagine me FF her now?
I can't explain why I became so fascinated/obsessed with it though. I am NOT a safety freak, I don't really go overboard about anything else regarding her safety. But this board got to me for some reason! I looked into being a tech, but the only class I found was during the week & it's not like I can take time off work for it!
My friends and family realllllly think I am crazy-they want to know if I am going to match her car seat to her prom dress when the time comes! Of course they are kidding, but they are tired of hearing me talk about the ins and outs of car seats. And they cannot BELIEVE that I already have the next seat picked out for her (as long as nothing better comes along) - that I won't even need for YEARS. My sister didn't even believe there was such a thing as car seat boards! I mean, really, it is kind of a silly thing to be obsessed about. To the outside world! I was even wondering if you guys were getting tired of all of my stupid questions about the EFTA! (Don't answer that)
They are SUPER excited that I FINALLY bought the darn thing, so maybe I will shut up about it. So, thanks for the outlet to talk about things...
So what's your REASON for being a car seat freak? I don't understand mine, but maybe you have some insight into yours?
