Here are some tips to maximize safety when traveling with a baby in the car: 🚘 Remove the newborn insert when the baby is around 11 pounds. This varies depending on the brand of car seat, so check the user manual for the specifications for your seat. 🚘 Make sure the bottom of the head rest is in line with the child’s shoulders to ensure optimal head and torso protection. Same thing goes for the shoulder straps- they should come out from the car seat in line or from below the child’s shoulders.
