I love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-in-convertible-car-seat#post-2326164 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 17:04:00 +0000 Torchwood 2326164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just put her in fleece of some sort (sleepers for now since she's still itty), and wrap her in a blanket for the transfer. I tuck the blanket around her once she's in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-in-convertible-car-seat#post-2325973 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 14:52:16 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2325973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do heavy fleece coats or the thin Patagonia down sweaters. Both kids get down blankets on top in the car. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-in-convertible-car-seat#post-2325970 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 14:51:35 +0000 Adira 2325970@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do a fleece jacket (<a href="http://www.columbia.com/boys-steens-mt-ii-fleece---infant-WN6760.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.columbia.com/boys-steens-mt-ii-fleece---infant-WN6760.html</a>), hat, mitten, and then a fleece blanket in the car. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-in-convertible-car-seat#post-2325920 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 14:21:25 +0000 Mamaof2 2325920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just do fleece and a hat - and RUN to the door- haha</p> <p>There is no way I am putting on and taking off jackets everyday twice a day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-in-convertible-car-seat#post-2325910 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 14:19:36 +0000 erinbaderin 2325910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made a fleece car seat poncho (something like this: <a href="https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/176307984/hooded-car-seat-poncho?ref=market)" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/176307984/hooded-car-seat-poncho?ref=market)</a> So I'd throw it over him, carry him out to a (preheated) car, and then buckle him in and tuck a blanket over him that I kept in the car. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-in-convertible-car-seat#post-2325907 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 14:19:06 +0000 looch 2325907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would dress my son up, bring him into the car, take off his coat, put him in and secure him. Then I'd have to unsecure him and then put the coat on again before we left the car. We only rode in the car on the weekends, but I am sure this would have driven me mad if I had to do it every single day, multiple times.</p> <p>I would look for something fleece, plus a blanket once you're in the car. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-in-convertible-car-seat#post-2325896 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 14:14:33 +0000 rattles 2325896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wrapped her in a blanket to carry her to the car, then I did the same thing as @avivoca with her coat and put the blanket over her lap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-in-convertible-car-seat#post-2325892 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 14:13:35 +0000 Synchronicity 2325892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always kept a blanket in my car and used that. She would occasionally toss it off, but by then the car was warm anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-in-convertible-car-seat#post-2325887 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 14:11:30 +0000 avivoca 2325887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I put her in her heavy coat (fleece) and unzip it once we get in the car. Then I fasten the harness under the coat and button it over top. If it's really cold, I add a thick blanket on top of her once she's hooked in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-in-convertible-car-seat#post-2325863 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 13:55:39 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2325863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We live in a temperate climate so keep in mind this tip is coming from someone who never sees temps below 35:</p> <p>We would just have them in a sweater (and hat, if necessary) and then put a warm blanket on them while we were in the car. They each have thick warm blankets that we keep in the car during the winter. Then put on heavy jacket once we got to our destination. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-in-convertible-car-seat#post-2325854 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 13:52:33 +0000 ktdid23 2325854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 6 month old is in a convertible car seat &amp; now I'm wondering how to keep him warm this winter....</p> <p>I clearly cannot put him in a fleece "snowsuit" or heavy jacket. I'm wondering if they make over the car seat type bundle-me's for convertible seats? How do you keep your baby warm on the way out of the house to the car and while in the car? </p>
