Baby Car Seats Archives




I know that babies are not supposed to be placed in joggers until they are around six months old. However, my jogging stroller is a travel system and has an carrier infant car seat that can be attached to the jogging stroller very securely. So, can I run with the baby in the car seat or is this really only supposed to be utilized if I am walking with the stroller?

To replace child car seat?




We were recently hit by someone running a red light. The impact was on the driver’s side.
My son was in a Britax in the back seat behind the passenger seat.
No visible damage to our seat- and we do meet the guidelines for the NHTSA "minor" crash- for the most part. I was sore and hit my head on the window, but did not seek medical treatment.
On the other hand, the insurance adjuster from the other person’s insurance company said (after looking at my car) that this would be considered a "moderate" impact crash (versus minor)- I think it seemed to be a minor impact because thankfully the other driver (who was going approx. 30 and didn’t slow down at all) hit at one of the strongest parts on the side of the car. In our Britax manual, it states seats should be replaced after any moderate or severe crash. The website states their thoughts on seat replacement a little differently on the site.




- I would never buy a used one.
- I have a britax for my son… am preg again with my second and have to look for the best deal… suggestions are appreciated!
- ALSO if anyone knows of any deals for a twin phil and ted running stroller!!!! LOVE IT!




I don’t have either one but looking into getting a BabyTrend or Instep jogging stroller. I have a stroller frame and it’s small when folds down.




I am traveling with an infant on a 5 hours flight. Britax Baby-Safe Sleeper is approved to be used as a car seat on all cars. Will I be able to use it on a plane given that I purchase a seat for my child? Anyone knows if it is FAA approved?

About the Evenflo Symphony Convertible Car Seat?




I’ve read reviews on this car seat and haven’t heard a bad thing about it. I am looking at this car seat and the Britax Boulevard CS. Cost difference, yes.

I’m just wondering if the seat is any less safe. I’m sure they wouldn’t market it if it were unsafe, but i’m just making sure before I do make a final decision. I’m willing to spend 0 for the safety of my baby boy anyday. Just wondering if there is truly a difference in the safety of these two seats.

Thanks!




I am trying to find a double jogging stroller that will fit in my Kia optima. It needs to be able to have a carseat hook on like single strollers do. I can’t find these details on any website I’ve looked so far. Please help !

Will a Britax Diplomat car seat fit in my civic?




I live in Brazil, and someone is bringing me a car seat for my 6months-old baby, from the US. I read the specifications and I´m considering getting the Britax Diplomat car seat, which is said to fit compact cars. But I´m still afraid it won´t, since I won´t be able to test or return it.
Would it fit a honda civic rear-facing?







Any time I try to go anywhere with my two year old son, he runs away and I can’t get anything done. We try to go to the grocery store and he gets out of the cart and takes off running. I try buckling him in and he gets out, I put him in the back part and he gets out. He will just launch himself over the side and take off. If I try to grab him to hold his hand, he then throws himself on the ground. I have a harness and if I don’t let him go the way he wants, he throws himself on the ground and kicks and screams. He can get out of a the five point harness on my stroller in two seconds flat. If I try to tell him it hurts my feelings or I don’t like it, he doesn’t care. He is too busy throwing a tantrum to listen. I am getting sick of leaving cart after cart of groceries at stores and never being able to get anything done. I am a stay at home mom and if I have an errand to run, I have to do it after he goes to bed at night and I am just over it. I have tried timeouts, bribery, hugging him, swatting his bottom, talking to him to tell him I don’t appreciate it….NOTHING WORKS! Does anyone have any kind of advice on what to do so that I can get something done?
I have taken him to the store for "play time" sometimes for up to two hours. Every trip is not under a time constraint. But I would like to get what I came for on trips when I need things. We have gone right after breakfast, after nap time, with snacks etc. And I would never tell my child to "sit down and shut up." Perhaps that is the kind of parenting you do but I do not.




My son outgrew his toddler car seat. His grandmother bought him a booster seat that uses a belt only. I think that he is too young to use just a belt. I would feel safer if he were in a five-point harness. What is your experience? He is very big for his age. He is 36 lbs and 28 months old. Thanks

I’m thinking about getting this seat. It has everything and great reviews.

He is still in a five point harness now. I just want to know what type of booster seat is the best . They make boosters that use a five point harness.




Continuing with some questions can anyone clarify what are some of these Matters and Materials in a star might be?

With some of my research I’ve found and some answers from my engineering teachers in school I have acknowledge that Titanium and Niobium and some other minerals and materials exist in grand quantity on the stars and some of the other planets, but with an answer that I get from one of the participant who help me into one of my answers, in which he quoted in the answer of which was given. " As for a star.
No
You can not extract anything from a star.
Two main reasons.
A star’s gravity is too great. It holds onto its matter very strongly.
The material in a star is at a temperature higher than the melting point of any substance."

So can anyone here help in continuing founding the answers to that question? Please!

My Question;

Does anybody have any Idea on how to break down a planet physically?
Does anybody have any Idea on how to break down a planet physically, just to harnessed its elements and minerals?

Look around you.
We are already doing it.
We are slowly pulling this planet to pieces and sending bits into space.
It would be possible to continue doing this until nothing was left of earth.
But why would you do that?
You wouldn’t have anywhere to live.

Baby car seat in the backseat of a pick up?




I am looking into buying a pick up but have a 2 year old. I am wondering if it’s safe to put a baby’s car seat in the back of a pick up with an extended cab. The trucks backseat is similar to this http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://usacars247.com/pictures/17747-6-2004-Ford-F250-Supercab-Longbed-4X4-We-F-for-sale-2010-02-11-12-09-32.jpg&imgrefurl=http://coloniasyperfumes.com.co/img/1990-ford-ranger-xlt-supercab.html&usg=__vxol4pRGTrNsS7DNRTMPGNrx9JQ=&h=768&w=1024&sz=171&hl=en&start=8&zoom=0&tbnid=Duc4c0W3STk7GM:&tbnh=113&tbnw=150&prev=/images%3Fq%3D2000%2Branger%2Bsupercab%2Bxlt%2Bback%2Bseat%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26biw%3D1280%26bih%3D782%26tbs%3Disch:10%2C456&um=1&itbs=1&biw=1280&bih=782

Is that a no go? Are my dreams of owning a pick up taking the backseat for a few more years?
