I would have done what you did... let her sleep in the seat until the last possible minute, then transferred her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248652 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 23:30:05 +0000 Foodnerd81 1248652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We let her sleep an extra hour or so, then I just moved her to the pnp and she woke up- but she prob would have woken up soon anyway. Eating and hopefully she goes right back to sleep. Dh put the pnp with it on the low/ bottom setting so putting her in gently may be difficult! Will set it up with the bassinet in the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248568 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 22:35:07 +0000 swedishfish 1248568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd move her too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248566 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 22:32:57 +0000 autumnlove 1248566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would move her! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248555 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 22:25:42 +0000 Greentea 1248555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely transfer her. Carseats are not good for her spine if she is in there very long. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248526 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 22:05:42 +0000 sarac 1248526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would leave her. Airways are compromised or they aren't - if she's breathing well now, and isn't at risk of overheating, I'd go for it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248523 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 22:04:41 +0000 Foodnerd81 1248523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was only an hour and a half car ride, fwiw. She's in the room sleeping right now in the seat but I may switch when we go to bed... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248490 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 21:46:06 +0000 Boheme 1248490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would transfer. The airway can be compromised after an extended period in that position. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248487 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 21:45:01 +0000 Purpledaisy 1248487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would leave her in the carseat, especially since you will be in the same room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248478 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 21:40:02 +0000 Beehive 1248478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: I think it's probably fine as long as you keep an eye on her - LO has slept long stretches in a car seat (mostly on planes). She may wake up earlier than usual anyway if she's uncomfortable in the carseat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248473 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 21:37:06 +0000 Foodnerd81 1248473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: hmm I was afraid of that. </p> <p>@brady80: if she wakes up when we take her out I'll definitely feed her and nurse back to sleep. She's so peaceful right now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248468 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 21:35:29 +0000 brady80 1248468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe feed her now too and then she might sleep past 1? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248459 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 21:30:46 +0000 MamaMoose 1248459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would transfer her. The angle of the car seat can constrict her airway after a prolonged period. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-letting-lo-sleep-in-car-seat#post-1248453 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 21:28:21 +0000 Foodnerd81 1248453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just got to dh's grandmothers for thanksgiving, and Lo (4 months) is sleeping in her car seat. Dh is setting up the pnp while I wait with her in the car. If she sleeps through the transfer, can we leave her to sleep in the seat? With the straps tight? </p> <p>She usually wakes up around 1 am anyway and it's 9:30 now. We will be sleeping in the same room as her. Wwyd? </p>
