Our baby was born in January, and when we were ready to head outside (at about 3 weeks), she was already a bit big for her newborn outdoor clothing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ok-for-carseat#post-1839607 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 20:54:15 +0000 dolphin 1839607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ok-for-carseat#post-1838957 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 13:18:09 +0000 cheert16 1838957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: @birdofafeather: DS was 19 inches- and only in NB for a couple weeks.

I want to make sure its not too big for the seat when she is born! Thoughts? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ok-for-carseat#post-1838918 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 12:58:20 +0000 birdofafeather 1838918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yeah, totally fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ok-for-carseat#post-1838908 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 12:54:49 +0000 Adira 1838908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's hard to know for sure because I can't tell how thick it is.</p> <p>We got this for Xander last winter: <a href="http://www.columbia.com/snowtop-ii-bunting-%E2%80%93-infant-SN0213.html?cgid=kids-baby-sets&#038;dwvar_SN0213_variationColor=431#start=5" rel="nofollow">http://www.columbia.com/snowtop-ii-bunting-%E2%80%93-infant-SN0213.html?cgid=kids-baby-sets&#038;dwvar_SN0213_variationColor=431#start=5</a></p> <p>It's just one layer of fleece, so it's not crazy warm, but it's definitely car seat safe. We put him in fleece pjs and the bunting and then had a blanket for the car and he was definitely warm and cozy enough! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ok-for-carseat#post-1838906 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 12:54:17 +0000 LuLu Mom 1838906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's they type of thing DD wore last year (and will hopefully wear again this year.) They are amazing and safe because they aren't bulky. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ok-for-carseat#post-1838903 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 12:52:57 +0000 Mamaof2 1838903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cheert16: yep - fleece is fine since it wont compress! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ok-for-carseat#post-1838894 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 12:49:28 +0000 cheert16 1838894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is this ok for a carseat for a winter baby? I put DS in a fleece zip up (like a northface- but not) in the winter for his carseat. I never had to worry about when he was an infant because he was born in April!</p> <p>If not this- any other ideas? My due date is 12/13 so it could be freezing!</p> <p><a href="http://www.carters.com/carters-baby-girl-jackets-and-outerwear-prams/V_127-908.html?dwvar_V__127-908_size=3M&#038;dwvar_V__127-908_color=Color#cgid=carters-baby-girl-one-pieces&#038;startRow=12&#038;navID=header&#038;start=18" rel="nofollow">http://www.carters.com/carters-baby-girl-jackets-and-outerwear-prams/V_127-908.html?dwvar_V__127-908_size=3M&#038;dwvar_V__127-908_color=Color#cgid=carters-baby-girl-one-pieces&#038;startRow=12&#038;navID=header&#038;start=18</a> </p>
