Scary!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-sitting-in-shopping-carts#post-1591543 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 01:26:37 +0000 BoogieBea 1591543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Crazy. Luckily, I always put my kids in the car first before I unload the cart. I worry about them wiggling out of the cart while I'm not looking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-sitting-in-shopping-carts#post-1591539 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 01:03:26 +0000 birdofafeather 1591539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>wow, i have never worried about this! i always keep LO in the cart while i unload. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-sitting-in-shopping-carts#post-1591159 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 20:58:29 +0000 Pepper 1591159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO loves sitting in carts (especially in Target) but with their carts, the strap goes across his chest and kind of pins him back against the seat. I could see this happening more with lap belts, since he could lean over the bar...</p> <p>That being said, I will definitely make sure I don't unload the cart while he's still in it (I just did that today, actually). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-sitting-in-shopping-carts#post-1591077 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 20:39:08 +0000 autumnlove 1591077@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh, cart accidents scare me. LO 1 fell out the other day...MIL let her sit on the handle bar and wasn't paying attention. :crying: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-sitting-in-shopping-carts#post-1591034 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 20:27:55 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1591034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whoa! I never thought about that happening. </p> <p>I always put Chloe on her car seat first then lock the car. I have nightmares of someone snatching my kid while I unload groceries. I have a hatch lift trunk so she gets plenty of air. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-sitting-in-shopping-carts#post-1590985 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 20:15:18 +0000 pinkcupcake 1590985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yikes! For the first time I'm glad LO doesn't like sitting in carts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-sitting-in-shopping-carts#post-1590911 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 20:00:55 +0000 wonderstruck 1590911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whoa, holy crap! This makes me glad that I always take out LO before the groceries and I will definitely continue to do so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-sitting-in-shopping-carts#post-1590902 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 19:59:31 +0000 lovehoneybee 1590902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly, E is so heavy that this is something I think about. I unload the groceries into the car from back of the car and keep a foot on bottom of the front of the cart to balance out his weight. </p> <p>(Ideally I've parked right next to a cart return so I can strap him into his seat (with his door still open and the car on), then unload and step 5 feet away to return the cart). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-sitting-in-shopping-carts#post-1590891 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 19:58:13 +0000 Ash 1590891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yikes! It makes sense though.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-sitting-in-shopping-carts#post-1590873 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 19:55:42 +0000 mediagirl 1590873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another thing to worry about, if you're a worrier! Not related to putting the carseat on top of the shopping cart. </p> <p><a href="http://abclocal.go.com/wtvd/story?section=news/abc11_investigates&#038;id=9515561" rel="nofollow">http://abclocal.go.com/wtvd/story?section=news/abc11_investigates&#038;id=9515561</a> </p>
