Re: At what age did you....
dd went in a restaurant high chair at about 4 months. we just used a blanket to help prop her up. she is 9 months and we keep a fisher price discover and grow booster seat in the car with us. we prefer using that to a highchair bc dd has a little tray to play on instead of playing on the table where food, utensils etc are
her first time in the shopping cart was actually a week ago - at 9 months only reason was because i always do my shopping without her.
at 9 months shes still in the infant car seat in one car, and a regular britax marathon in the other car. will be switching her soon though

7 mo for high chair and cart. This is when they started sitting up. We still use the infant car seat b/c we just haven't had time to get regular ones. We leave them in the car though. We don't carry them in it. At 18 lbs, I'd die lol

DS started sitting in our High Chair at home just after 4 months so I would guess about the same at a restaurant.
Shopping cart probably probably 5 months.
We got rid of the infant carrier by 5 months. He was no where near the weight. I don;t even think at 2 he is at the weight but I jsut got sick of carrying it and it was easier to switch him to the convertible car seat.

Re: At what age did you....
High chair in a restaurant was at 4.5 months. Shopping cart around 6 months. You can do both when the baby is able to sit well unassisted.
We stopped using the car seat at 8 months because DS was nearing the height limit.

5 months for the highchair and shopping cart, 6 months for the infant carrier.
This, as soon as DD was good at sitting up on her own we started using the high chair and shopping carts and realized the infant seat was no longer easy! So we switched to a RF convertible seat.

Oh no! I just bought a cover for the cart and high chair. It's super plush so hopefully that wouldn't happen.

this is what we do too - the infant carrier and base stays in the car at all times just like a carseat would.

My daughter is small so i did everything a bit later. Highchair: 6 months Restaurant hc: the same but with cover Cart: 7-8 months with cover Infant seat: about 13-14 months and to be honest she still fit but i just felt she needed more protection and was starting to lool uncomfortable. But technically shes still falls under the allowed height and weight. Shes a petite cutie lol
