My DS is 6 months and at least 20lbs-need to weigh him again as I'm sure he gets bigger daily...
My car seat is so heavy as is he and getting it out of the car and onto the buggy legs is killing my back and wrists. I've had a strained wrist that I can't twist now for a couple of months and for the last 2days I can't bend down or sit down without a lot of pain.
I'm dreading the school run as I have to get the seat in and out of the car 6 times a day!!!
I can't baby wear-he freaks out and I can't carry him for long as he's madly active and won't have it-literally have to wrestle him. He's very physical-is crawling and was rolling about at 3 months.
When can I put him in a normal car seat and use a normal buggy?
I know rear facing seats are safer but a mum who can't bend down or lift anything is pretty unsafe too.
