    Ah, ... DP got it fitted into the car the morning of the arvo I was coming home from hospital with our new bubba ... yep, I was sweating it !! ... That was cutting it too fine for lil old organised me

    ... And to think we only purchased it when I was about 6mths pregnant

    (Cost $25 to get it professionally fitted !! ... and they highly recommended to have it placed right in the 'middle' of the back seat incase of impact in an accident. Made sense !!)

    Dear hubby put our baby seat in about 4 weeks before i was due and having bub number 5,we thought i might go into labour earlier,but it didn`t happen that way, I always like to be prepared.

    We had ours put it at the seat fitting place a few weeks before she was due.
    The guy spent ages talking to us about the seat and making sure we understoood how to use it and all that. He was really helpful.

    With DS (1st pregnancy) We had the car seat installed when I was around 6 months... lol. It came out a couple of times but went straight back in. With DD, DH installed it when he got home from hospital after me having DD.

    It was installed by my father two days before DS was born (9 days after his EDD). My DH was afraid he wouldn't put it in correctly and my dad had installed the car seats for all 3 of my sisters kids so had a great deal of practice!
