Can I use a sling or a carrycot to bring my baby home from hospital as we don't have a car at the moment and I will not buy a car seat yet?.... I am thinking to take a cab.
If your taking a taxi you still need a car seat. So you would have to either borrow one or you can buy some older models (2-3yrs old) on Ebay for like £50 brand new
For example recaro privia 2015 model is around £50
When I had my 10yr old I lived around 5-10mins walking distance and was still made to bring the car seat and go home in the car
Car seat only at my hospital too, if you know 100% you won't need the car seat again you could borrow one from a friend etc but just be certain it's never been involved in an accident
We got a taxi home and still had to have a car seat. We don't drive so literally had a car seat to get home & the rare occasion we used a taxi there after lol.
And if you say your getting a cab by law you will need a car seat or they will not take u also most hospitals wont even let u leave the ward without a car seat
Where i live it has to be a car seat and u have to go home by car either someone picking u up or by a taxi
Don't quote me but I was always told you won't be discharged without a car seat
@damarissuteu123 I don't know about law etc. But I was always told that you would need a carseat before being discharged. Even if getting a taxi they will want baby to strapped into the taxi in a car seat x
@damarissuteu123, it is the law for a baby to be in a car seat when using a car or taxi yes...
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.
I can’t wait to put my son forward facing in his car seat 👌🏼four more days
I'm looking for an infant car seat but I know nothing about the brands. There isn't too many product reviews online. I want to get the safest car seat I can find. Any suggestions?!??!?!❓❓❓
I got a car seat from a friend and a stroller online the carseat fits in the stroller but the shade won't close :( get a smaller car seat or keep it ?
Bad car wreck
So yesterday I was in a bad car accident. I was sitting at a red light and a lady was texting and driving and she hit me going 45 miles an hour because she was too busy on her phone to realize there was a red light. I had whiplash and I'm veryyy sore today. Well I have a rental car now and I'm having a hard time driving. I freak out every time I come to a stop because I fear the car behind me isn't paying attention. Anyone ever deal with this before?
No hospital will let you be discharged without a car seat. Even if your in a taxi they’ll want baby to have a car seat. They even checked our car seat and then made sure it was fitted in our car properly!
