nautilus question - Yada, Yada, Yada

MamaToIke · 10-24-09, 12:26 PM

My sil, who I might need to add is one fry short of a happy meal, insisted that the nautilus will not work with her son because he has already outgrown the 5pt belt. I tried to expain to her that it actually goes alot longer then the type of carseat she has, but she doesnt believe me. So my question, how tall is your child, age too may help somewhat, and do they still have room to grow?

Logan is 44 lbs and 43 inches and still has one slot to go and he is 5 yrs 3 mos.

Brianna is 38-39 lbs 41 inches and still has one slot to go at 4 yrs 1.5 mos. She has the same torso size as he does, lol.

Kayleigh is 5 years 4 months and is 39ish pounds and 46inches. She still has one slot to go. A lot depends on torso size. It really doesn't matter if they are 7 feet tall as long as their shoulders don't pass the top slot.

yeah her son is 4 (4.5 mo older then Isaiah) and she is looking at a booster already. I swear that woman makes me SO MAD! She flipped him from RF to FF at 9 mo and now this. I think its because she wants him to grow up faster, but still woman, think of the safety of your kid! AHHHH sorry a vent this morning

Unfortunately she's not the only one. I see kids at pickup from K who aren't even buckled in let alone in a booster

I'm pretty sure one of the kids just uses a seat belt since I only ever see one booster in the car and I'm sure his younger brother is the one using that. Sad thing is he is much smaller than Logan (heck smaller than Brianna too I think).

Brianna has ridden in a booster a little bit. I'm not 'happy' about it but it was a very short distance and I think it was helping teach her how to be safe in a booster at least.

Kayleigh has been in a booster too. It's not ideal for me, but it had to be done.

Seriously? She has a seat at her disposal and doesn't want to use it??? Can she send it here? We use a Regent for Anna and want something slightly more compact. She's 50in and not even CLOSE to growing out of it. Dh does use a booster in his van on the rare occasion they go somewhere together.
