Hi everyone,
Can anyone help with a black out cover for a car seat that does not have a solid handle. (My Babiie R129).
Tried curtain over window but does not help.
Can't get baby to sleep in car.
Thinking a pop up or something?
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

Do you mean it's a fixed seat which stays in the car rather than an infant carrier? I am not sure that you would find one, as you are supposed to avoid using any products which could make it take longer to remove the baby from the car in an emergency. The ones for infant carriers shouldn't be used in the car either for this reason.

Sorry I know that isn't much help, some babies don't really sleep in the car, apparently when I was a baby I didn't, when I was older I was constantly travel sick and my mum reckons that's why I couldn't sleep.
