Which carseat?

did you register for or do you have? I'm trying to avoid a travel system as much as possible.

I was looking into the Britax but I'm open to any.. TIA Chat Icon

Thanks ladies.. I swear, everyone around me is a walking, talking ad for Britax. So now I'm wth.. I need a darn good car seat. The carseat decision has seriously kept me up at night.. regardless of whatever I don't have for this baby, in order him/her to come home, I need a carseat.. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Also with Britax, does it come with a booster? What do you do when the baby outgrows the weight limit? The Chicco and Graco I think have boosters or something to that effect. I'm so lost and confused...

Re: Which carseat?

i got the peg perego primo viaggio infant seat

britax convertible seat

not worrying about booster capability at this point because it's way down the road and safety regs can change many times between now and then.

You don't need a separate infant seat - you can just use the regular convertible.

I found it easier though to use an infant seat - I could strap DS into it in the house and then put it right into the base. If he was sleeping, I didn't have to disturb him. It also snapped right into his stroller when we went places as well.

This is exactly what I decided to do.

I bought the Peg Perego and put the Britax Marathon convertible on my registry.
