BTDT Moms...Car Seat Question...

Did you or are you planning to use the same car seat for DC #1 and #2? Or did you get a new car seat for each child? I am trying to figure out what pattern I should go for (neutral vs. girly...)

TIA.

Re: BTDT Moms...Car Seat Question...

I bought DS a neutral color travel system. Navy blue with yellow accent because I did not want to buy everything again.

If we are successful in TTC, DS will be 2 years when baby #2 comes along.

We will use the same carseat.

It general it is advised not to use a carseat older than 5 years old.

I chose a pale blue & grey infant carrier & stroller and got a neutral bigger car seat! Good for boy or girl!

We also bought a neutral color for DS's infant seat so we will be using that one again for this baby. There will be 22 mos between DS and baby #2.

We bought a neutral color the first time around with the intentions of reusing it. So, yes, we'll use the green infant carrier that we have.

Re: BTDT Moms...Car Seat Question...

We will use the same infant seat for leaving the hospital and for when we are using someone else's car. I am going to buy another Britax b/c DS will still be in his.

ETA: We got the car seats to match the inside of our car, so they are all neutral.

I got neutral for all of my big items, including carseats. I hope to be able to reuse with my future babies.

Re: BTDT Moms...Car Seat Question...

I hope to use the car seat for baby #2. I heard that you can use a car seat for up to 5 years. After that you need a new one. I will be getting a neutral color.

Same here. We don't know what we're having, but we would've gotten neutral items regardless of the sex so we could use them again.

Re: BTDT Moms...Car Seat Question...

yup neutral here too...gear is expensive and I can't see spending money for a pattern when neutral ones look nice too!
