Re: Nursing and DOC bands

[Guest guest]

Thanks ! What carseat would be an example of a positioning

booster not just a harnesed booster (I'm not sure I get what you

mean). When my son outgrows his ROundabout I am thinking the Britax

Regent (which I think goes to 100lbs) because I've heard the

recommended age is 8 years 80 lbs which seems old to me but when I

think that a seat in a car is made for an adult not a child it makes

perfect sense. I will check that link out. My son has a Roundabout

and is 11months almost. He is 29 " so he is almost to tall to sit

rearfacing; however, we won't turn him until at least a year (since

that is the typical recommendation). I know my mom saw something on

TV that encouraged parents to keep kids rearfacing as long as

possible (past a year). You would think that if it is safer and

other countries institute it that US countries would too.

Thanks again .

PS: Per one of your tips on another post, I have gotten my son to

take his formula from his sippy cup. He gets it at lunch time with

finger foods and that's been working! I think for his other 3

feedings I am going to wait till 1year when their milk intake is

less and solids is more. I say that because he definitely doesn't

drink as much from his sippy as he would if I give him his bottle

then feed him his lunch. Anyways.
