I had an appointment at my OB for a BP check (since I had to be induced due to high BP, and they ended up putting me on meds for it), so I brought LO. He's been kinda fussy all day, but as soon as I put him in the car seat and we got in the car, he fell asleep. He was fast asleep all during my appointment, so I was able to do a couple errands afterwards and bring him along. We're home now, and he's still fast asleep in his carseat... it's been 2 hours!
I know what I'll be doing next time he gets fussy!
BTW, we have the Graco Snugride carseat and we have this swing frame: https://www.amazon.com/Graco-SnugGlider-Swing-SnugRide-Infant/dp/B000M4K4BY
The carseat snaps right into the swing base, so if he's already sleeping in the carseat we can put him right into the swing. Best baby item ever!
Re: Car seats are magical
Same thing happened when i took LO to her two doctor's appointments. I think for us, it's not exactly the carseat, but the car ride. But I wouldn't be opposed to taking her for a drive if I ever get desperate!
The carseat swing frame is GENIOUS!
I agree completely. We have the Graco Snugride as well, but we have the Graco Sweet Peace. It also fits the carseat.
i need to get this carseat swing frame!
hah
