[blparent] Carseats for children 1 year-old or older?

[Tammy, Paul and Colyn]

Hi,

they go from 5 to 40 pounds, but they're not recommended for younger babies. 
There is a smaller version here in Canada that I had for Remus when he was 
smaller.  When you think about it, if you take the money you'd spend on a 
stroller, and the money you'd spend on a carseat, it's almost the 250 
dollars you mentioned below.  It's a little extra money but you'll be glad 
you spent it for the convenience and safety the sit n stroll will give you.
