Spinoff to jacket and carseat - was anyone ever told that it was dangerous to zip things around the straps - like the bundle me etc?

B/c it makes it harder for the policemen/firemen to get the baby out in an emergency situation? Do you think this would be the case with zippering the jacket around as well?

Yes. That is exactly why we did not get the bundle me.

I heard that, but I'm thinking it would be better for the firemen to have to struggle to get your kid out of the car seat than to find the body that had been thrown from the car, kwim?

I don't know if its because its harder for the policemen and firemen to get the baby out of the seat- but I did heard that you are not supposed to use anything that did not come with the carseat because it can interfere with the effectiveness of the carseat

I thought the issue witht he Bundle Me was the padding underneath is similar to how you can't tighten the straps enough the the heavy coats. I had one of those things they showed in that video that goes over the carseat and stays around with elastic and just their face pokes through. My DS #1 was a newborn in the cold weather and it was the greatest thing even. I just put a hat & blanket over his regular clothes and popped that thing on. In the situation you discussed, someone would just have to pull the cover right off to get a child out.
