    We put it in quite early for DS1 - probably about 34 or 35 weeks. We didn't need the extra seat in the car, so it was better to be organised early. DS2 arrived 4 weeks early totally unexpectedly and his seat wasn't fitted yet, but it wasn't a problem as DH was very good at putting car seats in by then and was able to do it the day before we came home from hossy.

    We installed our last weekend but I will get it checked by an authorised fitting specialist just to be sure towards the end of this week. We don't have any other children so its no problem having it sit in the car for a month. Its one less thing to worry about. Plus I have it in the back of my mind that DH was born 6 weeks early so his son could be the same, so I have been busy making sure everything is set up and then if he doesn't come early at least I can sit back and just enjoy Christmas and not freak out that I still have not got everything prepared.
