    I have Lexie in the capsule......she got a bit hot today (we are in Adelaide too) but I still prefer a capsule over a car-seat. When you hire the capsule, get one with a sheepskin insert rather than the velour: this helps. And like Christy says, if you know you are up for a long car journey, dress them down.....

    I had my first daughter in September and she was in a capsule in those early months. Im in Sydney, i did find there wasnt much airflow within the capsule. It was a pretty hot summer, and i found i would need to get her out of the capsule immediately after we got home.....i.e i didnt feel safe to leave her in the capsule, once inside, to have a bit more of a nap. LIke the others have said, i much prefer a capsule to a carseat in those first few weeks, and just dress appropriately .

    Good luck with everything....
