car seat VS. me and my car

car seat won 

I just cant get the stupid latches to slide in between the seat cushions and latch on the metal bars....grrrrrrr...

I can feel the bars with my hands, but I am just not strong enough to get the damn things hooked on.

Guess I will have to wait for DH to come home and do it.

AND...I need a bigger car...had to scoot the front passenger seat up way more than I would have liked to make room for the infant seat.  And the instruction manual says NOT to use the middle seat....*sigh*...and to think I used to LOVE my BMW!

I suck at car seats too. That is DH's thing for sure They fit a lot better in our SUV though!

I installed the base in DH's truck in about 3 minutes. SOOOOOO easy.  This one, however, is making me very very crabby!

I feel your pain!!!! We installed the bases in our cars last weekend and I love my car (a Benz coupe) and the damn base wont fit snugly in the rear seat! So of course DH says we need to get me another car-ummm...No! My car is perfectly safe so I will just wait to put the carseat in until I get the base inspected. Geesh! They put the LATCH system in cars for carseats but they dont want us to use them, apparently. GL to u!
