riding in the car

Do you sit in the back with your LO when someone else is driving?

Re: riding in the car

  • The only time I ever did this was on the trip home from the hospital.

  • I have been sitting in back w/ her when DH drives, but I think we're going to try to get me back up in the front.  I'll definitely stay in back for longer rides (yesterday we went to his aunt's for Thanksgiving...2 hrs away).

  • I have never ridden in the back seat with DS.  I always ride up front.  I'm afraid he'll get used to someone being back there with him and then cry when we're not.  I do have one of those mirrors back there so I can see him and make sure he's okay.  Plus, he loves to look at himself in the mirror so it works both ways.

  • The only time I've ridden in the back was when we gave my FIL a ride to the airport.  Aside from that (and any medical reason or emergency) I have zero plans to sit in the back.  I don't see any  benefits from that.  If DD's crying then she's crying.  It would stress me out too much sitting in the back while she cries and nothing I may do will alleviate it.  Besides, I much prefer to sit in the front so I can have a conversation with DH, which rarely happens!

  • Nope... our little guy falls asleep in the car anyways, so it'd be pretty boring back there.
