The Safest Car Seat  by: Natalia Bonner You just devoted nine months of you life to creating new life. This was probably one of the biggest changes thus far. Now you look at that beautiful new baby and think, "What do I need to do to keep this infant safe?" A car seat is by far one of the most important purchases you will make for this baby. Which seat is the safest? All infants should ride rear-facing until they have reached at least one year of age and at least 20 pounds. "So what if my baby reaches 20 pounds before age one?" you think. You should keep your child rear facing until both age and weight apply. When purchasing your babies first car seat you have two choices: Infant only seats and convertible seats. Convertible seats can be used for your infant and then after 20 pounds and one year they can convert to forward facing. Infant only seats have a built in harness that cover the infants’ upper torso. They can only be used for infants up to 20 pounds. However, many come with a detachable base that can be left in the car and make for easier transportation. Whichever seat you choose, just remember these safety tips. Always use a car seat. Never place your child in the front seat, especially if there is an airbag. Always read the owners manual. Be a good example and wear you safety belt. Accidents do happen, but you can do your part to keep your child safe. Always put your child in his/her car seat and make sure it is securely fastened. Wear you safety belt. No matter which car seat you choose it is up to you to use it properly and keep the child safe. About The Author Natalia Bonner-owner http://mystrollerstore.com.
