Anyone have one that they would recommend?
DH's family has a lakehouse and boating and being around the water is a huge part of our life. I would like to get a life vest for when we are near the water this summer. Baby will be born in May.
Thanks!

I might go to a boating store and see what they recommend. Sorry I don't have any suggestions!

I have used Stearns life jackets, currently we are on puddle jumpers but they are toddlers now. I had this one when they were younger: http://www.amazon.com/Safety-1st-Prograde-Drill-Door/dp/B0035RQF54/ref=pd_sim_ba_4
But if they are really young i would probably go with this:

Stearns makes great jackets. I actually work in the marine industry and we rec those. Just make sure it's got a crotch strap and head support.
