Which Booster Seat: Britax Frontier 85, Safety 1St Vantage, or Go Hybrid?

I value your opinions! Both my kids (4 and 6) have outgrown their Britax Marathon and need to move to a booster seat. I strongly prefer one that offers a 5 point harness to secure my kids for as long as possible.

Recommendations for Bedrail for Toddler Bed

Hello, we recently set up my 15 month old son's new "big boy" room, and although he is not yet using it we wanted him to have time to get comfortable playing in there. My daughter is due in 7 weeks, and I plan to have her in my room in a bassinett for the first two or three months, but after that I would like to transition her to the crib and hopefully have my son sleeping in his new toddler bed. I know he is young for this, at what ages have people moved kids from crib to bed with success? Also, he has one of the toddler size car beds,...

Baby Has Different Sleep Patterns with Dad

Hi Ladies! So here is a little background to the problem...I work days right now (only shift my job allows)and my husband works nights. So, there is always one of us home with our 8mth old son which I love but my poor husband does not get enough sleep with this schedule. My son takes 2 naps a day (1-2 hrs)and is asleep around 8ish when I am home on the weekends. Here's the problem..he does none of this for my husband. If and when he sleeps it is 10-30min once or twice a day. Sometimes nothing. So my husband only gets sleep when the baby...

Will a SAFETY 1ST Alpha Omega Elite Fit in Our Dodge Durango

We area bout to take a LONG car trip and my daughter 9 months and still in a infant seat. I'd like to move her to a new seat before the trip so she'll be more comfortable. I am considering the SAFETY 1ST Alpha Omega Elite. I have read a lot of reviews stating that it is a tight fit as a rear facing seat. I don't want to compromise the comfort of the passenger seat too much by having to scoot it all the way forward for such a long trip. Also let me add that we'll be traveling with a toddler in another car seat so I can't put it in the...
