Overwhelming Choices
Baby equipment choices can be overwhelming. For example, when you begin looking for the car seat, which is the best choice for the newborn baby? You probably want to take into consideration what equipment is needed as the baby grows older.
The starting point can be the infant carrier. Infant carriers are seats that can only be used in the rear-facing position. Although parents sometimes question whether they really need an infant carrier, here are some of the advantages to starting off with the infant carrier.
The carrier is portable. You can use it just as a baby carrier. It will also click into the base of the car seat when you are driving in the car and click it out again when you reach your destination. So many babies fall asleep from the movement of the car. There is no need to awaken the baby when you reach your destination. You can just click the carrier out of its base and carry it into the house, while baby sleeps.
If you have more than one vehicle, you can purchase the bases for all of the vehicles, but you need only one baby carrier.
Most carriers are compatible with strollers. You can take the carrier out of the car and click it into the stroller, without disturbing the baby.
The infant carrier is just for baby and is made to fit babies. You will find that they fit better into the carrier’s than they do in the car seats that are designed for small infants as well as toddlers.
