Too hot in car seat? Also in BIM
in Baby
Hi ladies xx
Am I just being a worrier (aren't we all! lol) - but whenever I put lo in her carseat she just feels sooo hot when I take her out! She's four weeks old on Monday and so is very well encased in the seat with a head support too.
I dont have one of the pushchairs that uses the seat so she's rarely in it for long - today she was in it for about an hour and when I took her out she was bright red and had a sweaty back.
How on earth do you manage if you use the chair on a pushchair too and lo is in it longer?? How do you keep baby cooler?
We have a long journey to do next week to visit family and I worry about her over-heating?

Now I just don't put extra blankets on lo when he's in the car. If you're taking lo out regularly anyway, then not sure what else you can do. xx
Today she just had a vest on with a dress over the top - no cardigan or tights, so I thought she'd be fairly cool really! Wrong! lol.
Will just keep an eye on her and as you say mithical it will be better once we can remove the insert as she'll have more space for air to circulate around her head then.

I still at 18 weeks find it so hard to know what to dress my LO in to keep her at a comfortable temperature. She seems to be like me and gets hot easily so although I love sunshine, I'm not a fan of hot summers.

I'm like you mummyjackson - I love summer but am no sun worhsipper and if it's very hot I just get irritable lol - maybe she takes after me!
