when did your babies car seat go in the car?

[Beach Mama]

We had ours fitted at around 35 weeks and it stayed in there until she was born.... It is something you need to get used to being in the way anyway and better to be prepared I guess!! Keep in mind that if you decide not to put it in and you go into hospital your DF can always put it in before he picks you up! Good luck!

We're pretty slack. DH will put it in the car after I've had bubs and before picking us up from the hospital...LOL

We put ours in 4 weeks before Oscar was due. Was strange driving around with it for a while but it was great having it in and DH not having to worry about getting it in before taking us home from hossy.

Hmmm might put it in tomorrow, DF wants me to do it he reckons he wouldn't do it right(probably cos he doesn't read instructions )

First time around I think it was somewhere between 4 and 6 weeks before. Second time around we moved DD1 up to her new seat about 10 weeks prior. We wanted to give her time to get used to it and not relate the change in seat to the new baby too much. The babies seat was put in and out multiple times since then due to needing other people in the car.

When DH came to pick DD2 and I up from hospital he remembered he hadn't put the seat in yet LOL!! With the other 2 it was the day they came out of hospital.

I put ours in the morning DS was born. DH ended up taking it out though as he picked us up from hospital in the other car
