We were driving home from pur vacation and at the end our baby was seriously crying. We were stuck in traffic, so i took the baby out of the car seat (i was sitting in the back next to it) and put it back when we were moving faster again. Would you bave done that? Have you been in a similar situation before?

I wouldn’t because I’ve been rear ended in basically stand still traffic. I know it’s a rare chance but too much risk for me. I did yank my youngest out of her car seat in a drive through because she threw up and was choking

Never. Babies cry. They will be fine. They wouldn’t be fine if you get in an accident.

No. But I have unbuckled myself and leaned over the baby to nurse her once. Still very dangerous for me but at least baby was safe

Insane, so dangerous wtf

No, but I always pulled over asap when my son was very young. He’s much better in the car now that he’s older

I understand the urge, I’ve been in this position before and almost did it. But yeah, definitely not a good idea. You’re better off being the one to unbuckle and lean over to them which is still very unsafe but better than taking them out. I’ve had to do that before because our back seat had no middle it was bucket seats.

No. We would have pulled over and parked.

.....no

Nope, I whip my tiddy out and breastfeed baby while their buckled into their seat

You pull over if needed. Not while the car is going. Goodness.
