How do I get my ten-month-old daughter to tolerate her car seat? I have a baby that despises being in a car. With a trip to Los Angeles (aka The Land of Car Transportation) coming up, I'm wondering if there's anything we can do to make her hate car transportation a little less.

Our little baby boy has been in the NICU for the past 8 days and should be released in a less than a week. He was born 6 weeks early and before we had bought anything (even a car seat) so we're rushing to prepare for his imminent arrival. We came up with a few questions while shopping for baby stuff...

My sister just had her first child and on the car ride home, she discovered that her tiny, 3 day old, 5 pound baby is too small for her infant car seat! Is there a
safe way to modify a normal car seat temporarily for an extra tiny individual? Is there anything else she needs to know about dealing with an extra-small infant?

Best car seat for a toddler? We're looking for a booster to fit a 14-month old who is 32 inches, 23 lbs (tall for her age). It was easy to choose an infant seat, but the boosters seem harder to select, especially since the recent Consumer Reports test results (on infant seats, not boosters) showed so many seats that didn't pass the test.

We need a new (used) vehicle, but can't decide what we're seeking...I'd like to hear some more opinions from disinterested parties.
