Question I have a Ford escape and length across is 50 in I need 3 16.5 car seats to fit!

Anyone know of carseats with 16.5 width. I have two toddlers and one on the way so I will need an infant car seat and two booster style with five point harnesses for now but looking for three of the same kind so I want them all to be 16.5 so it's easier to switch the newborn when needed to the same kind the bigger babies have. Please help

baby is due December 10th and I need these carseats before

Do you live near Babies R Us or Toys R Us? Or any nice baby store that will let you try seats in your car? Graco MySize is a good one to start with, fits wee ones an big ones well, very narrow.
Sometimes it's easier to 'puzzle' seats than it is to have the same one, so their widest points aren't in the same place, you might need to do something like really narrow in the middle, and then wider things can go outboard. Fitting them with seatbelts instead of LATCH can make push the outboard ones out a critical inch or two to be able to make them all work. What year Escape? I had an infant and two boosters and it was a booger buckling those boosters, so keep them all harnessed as long as possible to save your knuckles and lots of time (if MySize works, it's really tall, fingers crossed!)

Welcome and congratulation on your new baby to be. What are the heights, weights and ages of the older two kiddos? What seats are they using now? Do you have an infant car seat that's still okay to use from the other kids?
