Is there such a thing?


Ok I am going to sound a little bit strange trying to explain this...

Rebecca has a Britax renaissance car seat, when she is strapped in anything now she always pulls her arms out even in her car seat no matter how tightly I adjust the straps.

She gets her arms out and free in the car seat and is waving them around, this is particularly worrying if we had an accident as its only her waist bit that is strapped.

Do any of u know if there is an invenetion to tie or clip her two straps together on the car seatso she can't set her arms free and do any of ur kids do this?

I might not of explained myself clearly

i have asked for one of my mates kids, cos she can do the same and she has a britax car seat, they don't sell things like that, you'll will have to take it back the shop you got it from, and they should fix it for you cos it means it is losing for her to be able to do it.

I don't know if such a thing exists, but if it does, I should have one for Ky's carseat and buggy! - The little monkey has figured out how to get his arms out and wriggle out under the straps of his buggy if I so much as leave an extra cm slack on the straps!

Mind you, he could climb out of his cot by 15 months, and has learnt how to drag anything that will give him extra height over to doors to stand on so he can open them....so I should know better.
-He also pushes his buggy over to the sideboard in the kitchen, climbs into the buggy to get on the side, then puts the unit lights on and sits on the side throwing the fruit out of the fruit bowl.
.....Sod the contraption to keep him in his carseat - I need a bloody cage!

Maybe we should all get together and invent a device-there is obviously a gap in the market and we could make mega bucks!

No idea how to stop it - Olivia is just the same. Had the fright of my life the other week when she got her arms free then managed to lean forward and pull the door handle so the door swung open, thank goodness we were just approaching lights so was going really slowly. My car is quite old so no fancy child locking things so now I just have to remember to lock hers from the inside through the passenger seat as bump is too big to stretch across.

Yep I was so panicked because her arms were out of the straps so initially I thought she was totally free and would fall out.
I am sorry to say that was the first time I really shouted at her and she shyed away into her seat and would only look at me through the corner of her eye, I felt so bad but I reacted to the situation.
