Car Seat Safety for Your Infant Begins with You!
You may not realize it but car seat safety for your child begins when you are pregnant. Just as it is important to always protect ourselves in a vehicle; it is especially important to wear your safety belt when you are carrying a child.
Just as you pack your bags in preparation for your baby’s arrival you will also need to purchase a car seat. This is one time that it is best to forego yard sales or accept hand me downs. You want to be sure that you are able to register your car seat so you will be promptly notified in the event of a recall. Additionally, newer child safety seats and infant carriers are made according to the latest safety guidelines and are much safer.
So Many to Child Safety Seats Choose-From But Which is the right one for You? From pink flowery seats to those with baseballs on the fabric choosing a car seat is never easy. One of the best things to do to get the infant seat you really want is put a really good one on your baby registry. Choose one that has a removable base which will make hauling a sleeping infant in and out of the car much easier for you. It may be a bit more money at first but it is definitely worth it. If your baby will be traveling with other people often, invest in either a second base or another seat. This way you can make sure the seat is installed properly from the beginning and never worry about forgetting to strap in a buckle. It may be tempting to invest in the convertible big seat but most moms are happier with the infant kind made specifically for this phase in life.
Your seat should be equipped with a 5-point harness system If it’s cold outside, never loosen the strap to get bulky clothes underneath. Instead remove the coats and lay a blanket over the baby. When you get your car seat, don’t forget to get your baby viewing mirror so you can see his face while you are driving. Especially in infancy, these are critical to being safe in the car and will prohibit you from turning around to check on him. Another feature to look for in your seat is one that has a canopy. The canopy is great at keeping hot sub off of your baby’s face and allows the car seat suitable for doubling as a baby carrier to an outdoor event. When your baby is very young, the car seat inserts are a must have. This keeps your child’s head from rolling awkwardly sideways while you are driving.
The most important rule is to keep that beautiful baby of yours rear facing until they are 1 years old and 20 pounds. Other than that, enjoy the ride! |
