Rainforest - my car has a radio, no cd or tape player, i don't think a car dvd player is on the cards for us. i just feel lucky to have a car at all.

i'm glad that fisher price precious planet mirror, worked well for you. You're using that for a rear facing baby aren't you?

GothMum - i can see bilby in my rear vision mirror (she's forward facing now), but don't have a mirror on my visor. (have you guessed by now i don't drive a newish car LOL)?. Maybe i could superglue a small mirror to the visor? will have a try at this (hope i remember).

i really feel i need to focus on the road when driving, i had a ABI (acquired brain injury) some years ago, and have tremendous difficulty focussing on multiple things at once. ergo - I'm not medically allowed to drive a manual since going thru rehab for the ABI, only allowed to drive an auto (for medical reasons).

i feel grateful i survived the abi (near fatal brain virus), rehab (years of it) was so successful that i can drive again, and i have a car now. but i don't want every car ride with bilby to be a whiney nightmare!
