Car seat advice I've only ever used carrier car seats with my infants. I like them, they're easy to move in and out,…

Get another Graco and a base for the carrier for the second car. That way you have both.

I hope I'm not reading this wrong. I prefer carriers too but there's no need for two carriers if you can just get a base.

I'm due New Year's Eve and I'm in VA, so yes - it will be cold! I didn't even think about that. Good point!

So I guess that means I need to buy two seats. It won't be a lost cause because he can move into the other seat eventually - or is that not safe? My DD will literally only ride in the new seat in my husbands car 2x per week for a few months before he could switch into it.

Extend2Fit actually goes to 50 pounds rear facing ? if your new baby is not too small (like 7+ pounds) it'll be a good choice if you want to forgo the infant carrier and babywear instead, it says from 4 pounds and up but isn't a good fit for a baby that small in reality.

Yikes! That may not work then. All of my babies are super tiny. I've had two 4lbers and a 5lber. My first two even had to ride in car beds for the first 1-2 months of life because they failed their car seat tests. ?

I do have an unexpired carrier car seat, but it's pink! I wonder if I can purchase another manufacturer cover and replace it.

Good idea! Does Walmart do trade-ins or just toys r us.

Awesome! Thank you!
