When it's cold here (like below freezing), I warm up the car. But LO hasn't had any problems with spring temps - I assume because she's used to it being much colder. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/putting-lo-in-a-cold-car-seat-in-the-morning#post-1539475 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 10:46:08 +0000 lovehoneybee 1539475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I warm up the car for a few minutes and have a blanket available for him (to be under if he's cold, not sitting on). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/putting-lo-in-a-cold-car-seat-in-the-morning#post-1539471 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 10:45:22 +0000 Mamaof2 1539471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our car is in the garage and its still freezing in the winter months - my kids do say "its cold" but there isn't much you can do! I give them a blanket to use while the car heats up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/putting-lo-in-a-cold-car-seat-in-the-morning#post-1539468 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 10:43:02 +0000 BeachMama 1539468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@aliv0001 - she's 22 months and in a convertible seat. </p> <p>I've thought about starting my car a little early, but it's a prius so I'm not sure it would really warm-up very much. Just thought maybe there was some trick that the cold-weather parents do </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/putting-lo-in-a-cold-car-seat-in-the-morning#post-1539384 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 10:14:37 +0000 Smurfette 1539384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When it is cold out, I just warm the car up for like 5 mins before we leave. But on mornings when I forget R doesn't seem bothered by it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/putting-lo-in-a-cold-car-seat-in-the-morning#post-1539373 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 10:13:06 +0000 Alivoo01 1539373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How old is your LO? If infant and using the bucket seat, I used to bring the car seat into the house the night before so that it'll stay warm and put it back in my car the next morning.</p> <p>Now, I go out 5-10 minutes before we plan on leaving to warm the car up a bit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/putting-lo-in-a-cold-car-seat-in-the-morning#post-1539357 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 10:09:45 +0000 BeachMama 1539357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We recently moved and I have to park my car outside. DD has been freaking out in the mornings when I have to put her in her car seat. I think it's because it's so cold (even though we live in California). Does this happen to anyone else? And do you have any suggestions on how to avoid it? </p>
