Car seats, does anyone know if....
in Baby
.....you take your car & car seat to Halfords if they will check to make sure it in correctly even ig you haven't bought it there.
We've followed instructions but it just doesn't feel sturdy IYKWIM.
I'm just a bit edgy about driving around without having it checked but don't want to drive all that way & them tell me to PFO!
Thanks x

The seat is a stage 3 one (i think) a front facing one that sits upright. It moves if you wiggle it & i'm just using mums intuition which tells me to get it checked!
I can't beleive how it varies up & down the country as to whether you get charged or not.
Just like midwifery care I guess!
My council run regular car seat safety roadshows where they have a big gazebo in the Asda car park and you can get your car seat fitted, general safety advice and a free pack with activities and toys for bigger kids. They're excellent, if your council doesn't do them then lobby them to start! We got sent stats after we had our seat checked and of all the car seats checked on the day, 92% were fitted incorrectly or unsuitable for the way they were being used!
