Hi there, just wanted to get some tips or reccomendations. I am pregnant with baby number 3. I will have a nearly 5 year old and nearly 2 year old (birthdays 1 & 4 weeeks post birth) when the baby arrives. We have a ford escape with my current carseat and booster there is no chance of fitting in another carseat/capsule. So if anyone can recommend any slim line brands or know of anywhere I can go for more advice I would really appreciate it. I am happy to buy a new booster and carseats if this means making it all fit and keeping the car. I am thinking of a Radian, however according to reviews on google people seem to have problems fitting a Radian into an Ford Escape. Thanks in advance |

I was going to suggest a radian seeing as I can fit 3 of those in my back seat (mazda3) but maybe they won't work for you. Where abouts in NZ are you? Best idea is to go somewhere to try some options out. Baby on the move stock radians I think?
Are you wanting your 2 year old to rear face still? If so, there are some tricks to getting a radian installed quite upright which can make it easier to fit, but it does depend a bit on the slope of your back seat. Obviously, you can't put the seat upright for a newborn. ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">
