    When I had DD1 at the SAN they came and checked we had a capsule in properly and it was common to check then but that was 17 yrs ago!! When I had DS there they didn't check. DD2 was born in Darwin and they didn't even have mandatory car seat laws there then.

    We had the paperwork that said you had to have an approved seat etc but no-one even asked when we were there.

    We're having bubs at a private hospital & all our paperwork says is that we need a child restraint that meets Australian safety standards. We have the S'n'S Royale revesable car seat. I think they do come & check to make sure it's fitted properly.

    Target wouldn't be allowed to sell the FP car seat if it didn't meet ASS anyway.

    Bon ~ You have a good point there. I was planning on using our pram for this.
