when did your babies car seat go in the car?

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!

Pretty sure DP fitted it when I was in hospital.

With DS is was put in about 2 weeks before he was due, when I started maternity leave. With DD it was the same, when I started maternity leave.

We put ours in a week before MJ was born and then took it out again (just so we knew that it ftted properly), i didnt see the point of driving around with it in the car... Although i was glad that we did fit it early as i needed to get an extention.
I was in hosp 6 days (emerg c/s) so it was refitted before coming to pick us up.
TBH it is the last thing that you really need to do, its not like you need it for the trip to the hopsital, so dont stress too much about it

hi, I've got 3 1/2 weeks to go and i haven't got ours in yet.i thought the seat will be used for both cars mine and my hubby's and we always swap cars. when im in hospital my dh will put it in for when we come home. We both have put different carseats in before for my nephew and nieces so im just going to get dh to do it. He will make sure its done properly its going to have his child it it so he'll make sure its done correctly.
