    We also have 2 car seats as it's so much easier than having to shift it all the time.
    The days I work we go to work together in DH's company car, the days I don't work I use my car and on weekends we use DH's car again so we'd be constantly changing every day otherwise!
    I guess it depends on whether you have a primary car or you use both cars equally?
    Hope this helps!

    ETA - my mum has DS while I'm at work and also has one in her car so I guess we have 3 lol

    We have 1 car seat and 2 boosters that get transferred between 2 cars. Doesn't bother us any.

    We started out with just one but got a spare and I must admit it is heaps more convenient having two. Plus, now DH drops DD off at CC and I pick her up, so the two seats are now essential.
    I'm thinking we will get another one for this baby, but only the one as if I am not working we'll likely always have the newborn just in 'my' car (i.e. the one I use the most). But if DD continues to go to CC (we haven't decided just yet) then DH will still need a seat in his car as he can drop her off in the mornings still.

    We have 2 cars with 2 car seats in each. Our main reasoning is that whenever DH is at home (evenings, weekends etc) we always use his car even for small trips as his company pays for all his fuel and it is worth us trying to save money that way. If we had to change the seats for every small journey it would do my head in.
