I'm debating this myself!
DP wonders why I'd put a seat in the middle and not on either side, cos I have SPD. But if it's anything like last time, the SPD won't be an issue after the birth, and I can put DS in the middle so that all I have to do is unbuckle him and let him slide out once I have the baby in the sling/buggy (depending on which one I'm using). If I have them on either side, then it will be harder to unbuckle DS from one side (more reaching over) and I don't need the temptation to let him out on the road side!
So, I'm erring on the side of having DS in the middle so he can see the road and the baby on the door side to the footpath for easy lifting. Should really get DP to fit the damn seat now...he's been avoiding it and we're getting closer...I just want it ready to go, in case we have to make a mad dash to somewhere after the baby is born!
Good question
ETA: Lori - of COURSE! It depends on the car - I meant to say that, too! We've got a VR sedan now and actually have the option - prior to February we had an old Camry and before that my beloved little Pulsar hatch, where there was never an option about this. Then again, there wasn't much more room to stretch over in and it wouldn't have been an issue anyway, I suppose!
