    Oh you poor thing, and poor Mylo.
    Thank God it was only a superficial burn. Hope he recovers really soon. Thanks for the warning.

    Oh, your poor little man! I'm glad it was nothing serious.

    I noticed the other day how hot our car seat buckles get and thought there has got to be something they can do about that. Maybe we should all put a towel or blanket over the buckles when the seat is not in use? After your story I think I will do that tomorrow!

    I'm glad that Mylo is ok, it will probably take a lot longer for you to get over it than for him. It's amazing how hot those buckes get, isn't it? I'd never have thought theyd burn like that though, so thanks for sharing.

    Sorry to hear about poor Mylo's leg. Thank God the burn wasn't woo bad, but anything that happens to our babies is heartbreaking.

    I think it's Babies Galore that sells covers that go over the front of the car seats to stop them from getting hot. I know someone makes and sells them and I am sure BG is it.

    Poor little darlin. and poor you! I'm sure it will heal up quickly.

    I'd be interested to know why they said it was life threatening?? I've never heard of a burn like that being life threatening before, unless they expected him to go into shock or something??

    Oh what a horrible thing to happen to the both of you. Wishing little Mylo all the very best for a quick recovery.

    We've noticed that those buckles get hot too, so we put a muslin wrap over the window as soon as we get Caeleb out of the car. Since doing this, the buckles don't heat up and it keeps the car cooler too.

    Big hugs for you and Mylo!
