Need a new carseat for 7 month old, help.

Question

My daughter is outgrowing her infant car seat, she is 7 months old and around 20lbs.. not sure exactly weight.. but she is being able to kick the back of the seat and push her self up when she is getting mad.. i need a convertible car seat, that is plush, and reclines.. something that will leave us enough room in our Chrysler Pacifica. Any ideas? i've read so many reviews, just not sure which one to go with. I don't want to spend TOO much money, but want a nice one that can grow with her.. I love the britax, but I can't spend that much money..

Answer 1

I have an alpha omega for my son. He is 4 and still uses it.  Great investment.

Answer 2

The Eddie Bauer ones are nice and so are the Alpha Omegas.  I felt the same way about the Britax, best car seat ever, but since I needed to purchase 2, there was no way.  Take your baby into the store and try her out in the different seats.  They may even let you install one in your car to see if you like it.  Either way, though, I would take them off the shelf and really examine it before you buy.

Answer 3

In our town the health department has a program where you can a large discount on new car seats. You might want to check and see if there is a similar program in your town. They can make sure they get yo u the right kind and teach you how to install it.
