Question Cadillac srx and recaro proride

[sarahlove]

My mom has a proride rearfacing for dd. We can get a tight install in the middle using the seatbelt however dd's head will fall forward when she falls asleep. Is there anyway make the seat tilt back anymore?

Do you have it in the reclined position? If so, you can put a pool noodle or rolled towel under it to help recline it more. http://www.carseatsite.com/reclineangle.htm However, if your daughter is not a newborn (and she can't be since newborns don't fit in this seat), then having her head hang forward is a matter of her comfort and nothing more. She can lift her head in her sleep, I'm assuming, so it's fine to just leave it unless it's bothering her.

We had a towel but it wasn't enough so I got the noodle. My dad was worried that it wouldn't be okay so wanted to make sure.
She's 17 months but if her head isn't up she starts getting blue around the lip. She can but won't lift her head.

Definitely recline it then, and if you haven't I'd talk with your pediatrician about it.
