baby car seat burns baby

[Pandora]

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.

Oh you poor thing! Poor bubba too! Hope it heals real fast.

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??

[Celsie]

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!

Owie, poor bubba (and poor mumma ) I hope it heals quickly for him.

Charlie has been burnt by them too, though not nearly as bad. Might try putting a towel on his seat next time and see if that works.

Toys r us sells a reflective cover (like windscreen cover) for putting over your chair. I sometimes just throw a nappy over the buckles which keeps them a little bit cooler as they don't have the sunlight reflecting off them directly. Hope Mylo's burn improves quickly
