Good morning mamas! Quick question on car seat safety. My 3 year old son is currently on the passenger side in his car seat. When I have my newborn should she be on the passenger side and I move him behind the drivers seat? Not sure what's the safest option for both of them?!
say up to you ..yes hey say middle but I never did and have bucket seats (harder to get baby seat out of middle) which I'm sure is why they say safest. They don't recommend the baby mirrors on the seat but if you have one then I'd say infant behind passenger so you can see into mirror from rear view mirror! @katie86
I've heard you put the most vulnerable baby in the middle. which I would assume is your 3 year old being as his carseat is more open than a newborns.. if his carseat doesn't fit in the middle, then the newborn would go there.
My son is behind the driver because that's the next safest place besides the middle. My daughter is ginormous for 4 and her car seat is way too big so Zayd's carseat didn't fit in the middle properly which was even more of a safety hazard than just placing him safely on the side
Even though you can place them on any side the safest spot for an infant seat is in the middle. @kenitra


So I got rid of my spacious Chevy Impala and now have a compact Hyundai Elantra. I’m trying to figure out which car seat would fit best in a smaller car.?? The car seat will go behind the passenger so there will be a little more room to move the front seat up.
So if I can't put my car seat in the middle of my car, can I put it on either side of the back seat or is there a specific side? I have a 2005 Nissan Altima.
I can’t wait to put my son forward facing in his car seat 👌🏼four more days
I am so incredibly grateful for my best friend. Last night she and I were in a car accident. I was driving and we got hit by a student driver. My car is totaled, I had to come out of pocket for a rental car. Both of my kids car seats were in the car and I’ve been stressing on how to buy new seats for them, she just told me that her and her husband bought us new car seats. I can’t stop crying.
should i put my car seat in the middle? or behind the driver or passenger seat??
no seat is safest then the other. I would keep your 3 year right were he is and put infant in middle of possible so that someone can sit back there when needed.
