car seats...
my wife was like "we should check with a consultant everyone has been talking about" I was like "why tho? you put the baby in the seat and buckle them in...why even pay for this?"
it was mind opening. since I did that, I see soooooooo many people fucking it up. it's wild. car seats are like a condoms; user error is the difference between success and failure.
No need to pay for the consulting...well, maybe, the consultant is dope. I'm sure by now you've seen that there are a million options. Not all options are created equally and not all options are meant for everyone.
The value of the consultant is that she creates a solid plan of things you should buy based on your needs. I thought she was going to tell us to buy the best, most expensive stuff and call it day. Not so, we ended up buying the cheaper well made stuff that had the highest safety ratings that fit our lifestyle at the time. The only reason we have a Uppababy is because we got a deal on a thirdhand model from a list serve.
anyway - the consultant has a youtube channel, take a look because she covers the ins and outs of properly bucking them shits in (I'm talkig about the seat not the kids)
