MOMS!! I need advice pleaseeeee, I have no idea who to ask about this.
So I’ve posted about my chunky son before, not fitting clothes.. and now he’s outgrown his car seat. The car seat we have been using is 5-22 pounds and he is now 25 pounds and his shoulders obviously don’t fit anymore. So me and my SO went shopping for a new one. There’s plenty of options until we realize... all the ones we were looking at have NO HANDLES!! I mean like, no way to carry the seat at all. Which is fine, but my son is only 5 months old.. and I don’t feel comfortable carrying him to and from the car yet since there is 2 sets of stairs I have to walk down to get to my car from my apartment. I went to 2 different stores and I couldn’t find a big enough car seat that has a handle. Am I missing something here? Should I just get one without a handle? Please help me out!

@akcatprincess, yes then I got a lot of use out of my Ergobaby carrier and stroller. I’ve stopped using my Ergobaby only because I’m pregnant

I’m guessing the handle you are talking about is the one thats usually in infant carseats. Once they outgrow those, you usually get the convertible ones. &’ Those normally don’t have the handle.
My daughter has the Nuna Rava.
Rear facing suggests :
5lbs - 50lbs || 49 inches or less
usage for at least up to 2 years of age
Forward facing suggests:
25lbs - 65lbs || 49 inches or less
usage for at least 2 years or older

@flamingomom, yeah that’s what I was thinking but I wasn’t sure. So you just carried her to and from the car since then?

My daughter outgrew her infant carrier seat at 5 months and has been in a convertible seat since then. These don’t leave the car which is probably why you’re not seeing handles.
