A car seat should be a high on your to-buy list because you will need one to bring your baby home from the hospital and for every car trip thereafter. The very 1’st thing you will need in order to bring your child home is a infant baby car seat. Every state requires that kids up to 4 years of age ride in a car seat and generally hospitals won’t let you leave with a newborn if you don’t have one.

All infant seats come with a handle and nearly all have a base that secures to your vehicle with LATCH connections. LATCH stands for Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children which includes belts that hook the base to metal anchors in the car. You can strap most infant baby car seats into a car without a base, using the vehicle safety belts and some people continue to do so. Infant baby car seats allow you to move your baby from car to house or vice versa without waking him up - a plus for both of you. The down side is your baby may outgrow quickly and become too heavy for you to use as a carrier when he is around the age of 6 to 9 months. Infant baby car seats are still the safest way to transport the youngest of babies. It‘s more secure and compact for infants.

Toddler or booster seats are front facing with internal harnesses. These seats are either LATCH attached or can be secured using the vehicle belts and tethers. Depending on the type of baby car seat convertible you choose it may include the booster seat also.

Make sure the seat is compatible with your car. Regardless of fabric style remember that
babies tend to be messy so washable fabric is a plus. Pay close attention to the height and weight limits for the seat your buy. Even with a seat belt, all children under the age of 13 should ride in the back seat.

Consult the instructions that come with the seat before installing. Check your vehicle’s owner’s manual for information on your car’s LATCH belts. Remember the center rear seat is the safest spot. If your car does not have a shoulder belt in the center use the seat next to a door. Pull all slack out of the car’s LATCH strap. See the manufacture’s instructions for details.

Check the seat often. Try shifting the car seat from side to side and back to front. It shouldn’t move more than an inch in either direction. Every model of car seat sold in the US must meet federal safety standards.
