Car Seat Installation Woes
DH and I are finding it impossible to install our Graco snugride carseat. We got it in, but it moves from side to side A LOT!!!
Anyone else have the same troubles?
My date is approaching quickly and I want to have this thing installed RIGHT!
Has anyone tried going to a firehouse for assistance?

Re: Car Seat Installation Woes
My DH and I just went through this. He was, after a few tries able to get it secure so that it would not move. He had to put a lot of pressure down on it while installing it. They recommend putting your knee in it. Although we think it is in right, I am going to Good Sam PT dept. tomorrow to have it checked. They do car seat inspections there.

At first it did move alot, then he literally put his knee/all his weight on it & re-secured it. Not sure where you are located but on 109 they check them for free at Hassell Auto Body.

Re: Car Seat Installation Woes
That is why they have people who install the carseats for you. Have you looked into bringing it to someone yet?

This is where I brought our truck to have the car seat installed. She showed me how to do it, so I was able to install the other base in my car myself. It was hard at first but I eventually got it really tight & secured into place.
