High backed booster and sleeping in the car!

Hey, just wondered if anyone has the same problem!
My dd is 3 1/2, about 1m 8cm and 18 kg. she's in a high backed booster because of her size but she still sleeps in the car quite often. Her head flops forward and it's difficult to support it. The back seats in dh's car are very
Upright which doesn't help.
Any advice of what to do?
Thanks :-)

Maybe you should look at a hbb that reclines. Might help a little bit. The be safe izi up fix does.

We had this problem with the graco high backed booster and our DS2. My sister works in the car industry and got hold of a britax one which is amazing. It's quite wide but DS head never flops down anymore when he sleeps. The design is such that the head support is angled in towards his chin more. Will have a google and come back to you with the name of it...

It's called a KIDFIX SICT there is one without the side impact airbags that is less wide. It is fab!

Thanks guys!
