Convertable Carseat in Small Car

We are going to need to purchase a new car seat very soon. We have a 4-door Honda Civic. It's a small car and we are worried that a convertable car seat is going to be too big. Do you have any recommendations of a smaller-sized convertable seat that you think will work for us?

Car Seat Dilema

Hi Mommas! Here is my dilema: When I was pregnant I bought an infant car seat and what I thought was a convertible car seat. My daughter is now 20 pounds and will be year old in 2 weeks. She is getting to big for the infant carrier carseat. So I got out the box of the convertible carseat I bought over a year ago and decided to install it in the car. When I got it out of the package I noticed it is not a convertible carseat. It is a front facing car seat. The box says 20-40 pounds. She fits the criteria for the carseat, but do you think...

Rear Facing Car Seat

I just have a doubt after reading a news article about new suggestions for kids in car seats. I know they say to have your child rear-facing until at least 1 year old and 2 if possible.

If I were to put him rear-facing his feet would be sitting on the head rest. How are you supposed to keep them rear-facing when they're so long? Are there car seats that sit farther from the seat back of...

Portable, Convertible Car Seat

We're in the market for a new car seat for our 15 month old daughter who is 29.5 inches tall and weighs just over 20 lbs. I'd like to get a convertible seat so we can keep her rear-facing for a little longer. The only tricky part of this equation is that we don't own a car. We regularly use I Go cars (a car sharing program). So we need a seat that is relatively portable as we generally have to walk at least two blocks to get to the car when we're taking her somewhere. I've seen seats in the airport that have wheels in the base and...
