Strap Your Baby In the Car Safely With Michelle!

In this episode, we dive into all things car seats!  Here are the questions we go over! Can you review the basics of buckling in a newborn? Talk to me about the “pinch test”.  What about my baby’s head and how it hangs? I’m concerned he can’t breathe! How do I buckle my baby in with a coat? What if he is cold? What about sleeping babies in car seats? How long is that ok? Rear-facing vs. front facing - what are the biggest safety concerns? When is it safe to switch my child to front-facing? I’m concerned my baby’s legs are bent too much and he is uncomfortable rear-facing? Where should I go or who should I contact if I need help installing my car seat and/or making sure my baby is buckled in? Stressed about your baby registry?
