Congratulations and Good luck!!!

I originally had car booked in for 36 weeks but DH thought to early so changed to late in 38th week.

I got induced early in 38th week so whole i was in hospital DH had to go and get it fitted.

Moral of story is 36 weeks seems most sensible!!

I installed mine at 36weeks with my 3rd, first was done at 32weeks after I had been in hospital for the first time. and 2nd I did at 33weeks when the doctors started to talk about the posibiltiy of bub being early, she came at 39weeks lol.

I have 8 wks to go (). I rang capsule hire place a few weeks ago and am taking my car to him when i hit 35 weeks......

NOW! only to save you from having the fitter say "all you need to do now is have the baby" a week after you have (he was early and in SCN). An honest mistake, but one I would have rather not experienced.......

...but to be honest, I would say 35 weeks is good, just so you can stop thinking about one more thing that needs to be done.

I agree with around 35-36 weeks. I wanted to get ours put in around that time but DH went away for work and I wanted him to be there so that if we needed to move the car seat he would know how to do it. We ended up getting it put in at 37+5 days and my waters broke that night so we got it put in just in time!!
