[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s bad for their spines to be in the semi reclined position before 6 months. It can also be a positional asphyxiation risk in the first couple months because their head can slump down on their chest. I took those risks seriously (mostly the spine one) and did not have a stroller compatible car seat. I never let my baby sleep in her car seat and put her in the stroller with bassinet attachment for all walks.[/quote] I kept my 10 year old in the car seat all the freaking time. His head got a little flat, but once he started walking it rounded out. Don’t freak out op. Do what you have to do. [/quote] My 20 year old slept in the car seat (in the crib) till about 4' months. Our pediatrician said it was common and having the head elevated helped with reflux etc. I know the advice has changed since then but if your baby needs to sleep and happens to be in the car seat ..well do what you think is best.[/quote]
