Hi
Long time lurker but posting for the first time as DH and I are after some advice from the good people of Mumsnet.
We have 2 DC aged 1 and 4 and have recently been talking about the possibility of tryjng for another baby. Whilst taking into consideration the impact of having another baby - the boys are both getting to a stage where the youngest is sleeping through (phew!) and quality of life is getting a little less hectic - we are both feeling broody but not sure whether it is a good idea or not based on how the boys would react to a brother/sister and how we would cope as a family - another thing we are stuck on is how to get three children into our car. I have a Mini Countryman and have two car seats in the back (but no room for another seat in the middle) and DH has an Audi A4 which is the same (once both car seats are in you couldn't fit another in the middle) my question is has anyone else had this issue and how did you overcome it? Is a people carrier the only way? Or could you safely have a car seat on the front seat? I have looked at the government guidelines and all I can find is where it says that the eldest can sit in the middle with just a seatbelt for short journeys but for longer journeys I am not sure? Any advice on this would be gratefully received as we cannot really afford to change cars so will be a decider in whether we decide to try for another baby. thanks
