Hello everyone,
My wife and I are expecting our first little on in February, and I have been tasked with car seat and stroller research...
I think I have narrowed my stroller search down, but I have some questions about car seats.
1) Convertibles? I see 2-in1, 3-in1 etc...From my reading thus far, it seems the consensus is to go with an infant seat first, then a combo toddler/booster later, is that right?
2) Are any 3-in-1 seats worth it?
3) Rear facing, I have learned that keeping baby rear facing as long as possible is the way to go...however, I am assuming that I would have to move them to a bigger seat at some point?
Are there key features that you would look for in a car seat?
If it helps, we have a Saturn Ion Quad-Coupe (rear doors are suicide style) and a Jeep Patriot (seat will mainly stay in the Jeep)
Lastly, I think I am leaning towards Peg or Graco as we are planning on getting the Uppababy Vista and it has adapters for those two...
Thanks!!!
