3rd Trimester

If you are getting/have the Chicco KeyFit 30...

Are you getting a newborn head support? And if so, which one? Links would be most helpful!

Somehow this TOTALLY slipped my mind. :(

The KeyFit comes with a newborn insert but the KeyFit30 does not.

Edited to add "30" because the baby ate my brain.

  • we got one in the discovery color and i wasn't planning on getting a head support unless we needed one, and i was just going to send DH out to get one before going home. My grandma ended up getting one for us anyway for our shower. I think it's from eddie bauer

  • The one that comes with the seat is great. Besides, anything added to the seat voids the warranty and could cause injury to LO if there was an accident.

  • I was told that we don't need one so we're not getting one...

  • Also, I just looked at the babiesrus webside and it appears that both the Keyfit 30 and the normal Keyfit come with an infant insert. If baby does need additional support, you can roll up recieving blankets and put them along the sides of him/her.

    Yeah, I fixed it. Sorry.

  • Our chicco keyfit 30 came with a newborn insert.  We will just be using that.

    Hmmm...what I got in my seat looks different than what's in the photos of the regular KeyFit.

  • It says on the website that the 30 comes with a removable newborn insert. Did yours just not come with one?

    Yep, I'm an idiot. It came with that, but I was expecting something with more support around the head like the Snugride has.

    Sorry, ladies. Disregard.

    I thought it was a little unsupportive looking, too, but I'm sure it's fine. :)

  • I had the keyfit and never needed a head support more than what came with it.  DS was 9 pounds and 22" at birth though, if that makes a difference.
  • The insert that comes with the Keyfit 30 works really well, even for teeny tiny newborns. DS was 7 lbs. 4 ozs, and never had a problem with a slumpy head. You won't need any additional padding.
