Im curious.
I hear and read conflicting facts.
So when did you put yours in a convertible and take them out of the infant car seat?
I plan on asking my doctor at our next appointment.
Thanks!
We need to purchase a convertible car seat for my daughter and I was wondering which brand and style to buy? Any recommendations? I am trying to stay under $100, so no Britax Marathons.
