Car Seat advice!

mwdmwd member
in Parenting after 35

Right now, we have DD in a infant car seat with 2 bases, 1 in each of our cars.  We have 2 convertible car seats for DS, 1 in each of our cars.  I bought a car seat last year from a girlfriend that would match one of the convertible car seats.   DD is getting heavy, and we will need to buy another car seat.  Do we buy another convertible car seat for her, or do we buy a toddler car seat  for DS?  He is tall, 38" @ 2 1/2 years?  A co-worker of mine said she wouldn't waste the money again on a toddler car seat if she had to buy it again, but just make him sit in the convertible until he is ready for a booster. 

What have you mommies with older children done?  And if you have recomendations for car seats, let me know.  Right now we have the Evenflo triumph and titan.

    No advice really, but I know that the new Britax seats that were released on Aug/Sept have higher weight limits than their previous seats, so something like that might work.

    Right now we have 2 convertible seats that Jason is using right now and a baby carseat with 2 bases for Erin. Jason barely fits into his convertible with his coat on (he weighs 36 lbs) so we got this booster for him (didn't install it yet) on Fri:

    This seat can also be used for toddlers.

    Erin will be using Jason's convertible seats once she outgrows her baby carseat.

    Awesome, Ateytelb!   I really like that car seat, and think that is the way we should go.  I just have to get over the fact that DS gets everything second hand right now.
