Snugride with rear-adjuster..updated w/pic
My cousin came over with her family and new 8 week old baby girl on Sun. I went to take the baby out of her seat and said "wow her straps are really loose" my cousins dh said "oh we just loosened them when we got here" I didnt think anything of it and proceeded to hug and cuddly the new baby.
Then when they were leaving her dh put her back in the seat and buckled her up and left the straps loose with the chest clip up to her neck. I said "she is too loose it needs to be tight enough so that you cant pinch the harness together" and showed them what I meant. They have the snugride with the rear harness adjusters...so there is no way they had loosened it when they got here. Mine had the front adjuster and I hadnt realised theirs didnt until just then.
So he then wrestled for a minute with the adjusters and got them a little more snug and siad "oh well shes not going anywhere" I said "yeah not until you have an accident and her straps are still too loose" He then rolled his eyes and took the baby out to the car.
Now all I can think about is the baby not being secure in her seat and wondering if they even have the base installed right. They are not exactly the brightest two parents when it comes to stuff like that....
Here is what I mean..just picture the chest clip up to the neck though...
