I am 8 weeks pregnant with my 3rd child. my oldest is 5 will be 6 when baby's born my 2nd will be 4. How on earth do I get two booster seats with the back and a baby car seat in car?? I will need to get a new car as I have a tiny Suzuki swift what does everyone else do?? I can't afford a massive car with the insurance etc

Citroen C4 Picasso?

We have a Citroen Picasso, pretty big I’m afraid but drives like a normal car, 3 isofix bases and is 1.4 engine so not expensive to run. Good luck!

Put baby rear facing in the front (assuming you can turn the airbag off).

People may laugh but we looked at a Mini. Like a 2008 onwards one. It has two seats in the back which are isofix and the front seat is isofix too. Once you put a car seat in it the airbag turns off

You can squeeze 3 seats into the back of most cars

Citroen C4 grand Picasso. Promise you won’t regret it. £20 per year tax, superb fuel economy and absolutely vast inside but not big on the outside. All sets will fold flat to make it like a van inside for transporting much stuff and has an extra 2 fold away seats in the back for when you have extra people travelling.

You need a car with 3 full size rear seats to fit in 3 car seats.

We have a Berlingo Multispace - Easily fits 3 seats and gets 50mpg.

Ugly car but functional.

@BertramKibbler if only it were that simple.

Most cars do not have 3 full size seats in the back so youl very much struggle to fit three children's seats in.

The key is finding one with 3 full size seats if you would prefer to not have a child seat in the front passenger seat.

Following on from my first post. We've got a Zafira now, it is big but was really cheap to insure and tax.
