Baby 3 due shortly, we have a maxi cosi CabrioFix with EasyBase. We also have 6 year old and 4 year old both using maxi cost Rodi high back boosters. Can't fit all three across the back!
This isn't as bad as it sounds as I don't use car for school run, so only actually have to put all children in about once a week (and probably less often in first few months as I can't see us doing big days out with a newborn).
So I see we have a few choices:
- put baby in rear facing seat in the front (air bag off)
- put 6 year old in front seat (air bag off still?)
- put 6 year old on narrow boost cushion in middle - but I'd rather keep her in a high back booster. And not sure how comfy she would be with rear facing baby seat on one side.
Options 1 and 2 would mean that on (fairly rare) occasions we all 5 go out in the car DH or I would have to squeeze in middle back seat!
I don't see any of these as long terms solutions as we may be able to change car in future or in any case the rear facing baby seat is only going to be for about a year from memory (and then we have a different problem).
Any advice or other things I should consider from those that have already had this problem?
