I am taking DD1, DD2 and my step niece to the movies Tuesday and the rest of that day (DD2's birthday). What seat do I put her in?
She is about 41"-42" tall and SIL says she weighs "at least 40#". I picked her up Sunday, she didn't feel substantially heavier than DD2. Niece 3y 9m and mom has her riding in an Evenflo Big Kid booster so I am not using that. I honestly think she says she is 40# that so I don't say anything about her being in a booster.
I have a YS with 40# harness limit and the RN80. So I suppose the seat is a no brainer. The question is, do I use the Safestop or no? I don't believe she is actually 40# but I can't weigh her before hand (we are meeting at the theater). I also know that simply picking a child up is not a great way to guess weight. They can be lighter if they want picked up, heavy if not. It is kid magic.
So, with safestop and LATCHed?
No Safestop and LATCHed?
Or no safe stop and seat belt and no tether (the only situation the safe stop doesn't come into play.)
Niece said Sunday she needs a seat like DD1's (She is way too skinny for the Monterey, and too young).
