I am a home care nurse for a one year old (9 1/2 months adjusted) with a form of dwarfism. Baby rides in a Peg Perego bucket. He did fine in this until after his recent umbilical hernia repair. Now he gets short of breath in his car seat. It's like there wasn't enough room in his chest and abdominal cavity for all his organs and when he had the hernia it seemed to give his lung some extra space to expand, now that room is gone and we need to figure out another way for him to ride comfortably without getting short of breath.
Would he be less scrunched up in a convertible seat? Are there any medical seats out there that I am unaware of that may work better for him?
Any recommendations? Mom is kind of set on the "Britax bubble" but I'm sure if there is a seat that would be better in his situation she could be convinced.
TIA
