Carseat Snuzzler?
Are you registering for this? Especially if you're having a summer baby? It looks like a great idea to cradle baby, but I wonder if it would be too warm? It seems like thicker fabric. Image Attachment(s):

Re: Carseat Snuzzler?
I just got one at my shower and then I went to get my carseat inspected and I asked the guy about it. He said the carseats aren't designed for any "add-in's" like the snuzzler (it inclines the baby a little bit and makes the seat not as safe), so he said if I'm really worried about the baby's head rolling around I should roll up two receiving blankets and put them on either side of her head...this way she isn't inclined but her head won't roll around.

I went to a childcare class & the nurse warned us against these. She said ESPECIALLY for summer babies she does not recommend it.
She said babies can't sweat, so they can only have their heat escape through their heads & this "snuzzler" or other padding keeps that from happening.
She said she has seen many babies overheat/have extreme fevers from this.

Yup! I registered for it and it actually just came today. DH is a PO and just went through all the car seat installation training and he told me it was a BIG NO NO.
