Re: booster seat for car help
Honestly, I wouldn't register for a booster seat yet. You won't need it for 4-5 years from now. (DS is only going into a booster seat when he turns 6 next week). Why hold onto something that long. Technology may change, it may get mildew, it will age, etc. I would just register for the infant seat and the convertible seat, then see what you need in a few years.

I agree. My DD is 3 now and I just bought her a booster(Nautilus) after giving my DS her Britax Boulevard. If I didn't have a second she would have stayed in her Britax until she was 65lbs....I wouldn't register for one now

I thought the first and second one were for 30 pounds and above? meaning couldnt a 3 yr old go in one of those two?

The 3rd one is used with a seatbelt, so that's not entirely safe for a 3 year old. 5 point harness is the safest.
Also, I wouldn't register for a booster like another poster said. You won't use it for YEARS.

I believe a 2 year old can use the first 2.
Suitable for kids at least 25 lbs, 2 years of age, and 30" tall

Re: booster seat for car help
When my DD got to be 4-5 we put her in the Graco booster seat like the 3rd one you posted. It was great because the back is removable and she still uses the bottom at 8 to see out some of the windows. But i agree, you won't need it for years so i wouldnt register for it now.

It's my personal favorite. DS has the Wizard, which was the model before the Boulevard, but the same seat essentially. He'll be 6 next week, and still using it. DD has a Boulevard, and she'll be 3 next month. She has a long time left in her seat as well...

DS just went into the turbobooster at 5.5. You have plenty of time. I would not register for it.
