BTDT Head support for Car Seat

Hello! I was just wondering if it is necessary to buy a separate head support for my car seat. I have this travel system and it came with a head support but I am wondering if it is necessary to have a double one like the ones in BRU. Should I get one that has a newborn and infant support pillow?

Should I buy something like this?

Actually, you aren't supposed to put anything aftermarket on a carseat as the seat has not been crash tested with it.

This is what I've learned. Our car seat came with a really good infant insert that DS has now outgrown. We have the Chicco Keyfit and I love it.

Your car seat should have been made with enough support for baby. You should be fine.

You should be fine without the extra head support. We had one for DS, but he was a preemie and even then we still only used it for a couple weeks.
