Do you stick to the 30 minute car seat advice ?

i personally would say its better to be safe then sorry , it may seem silly but id rather be feeling silly then having to grieve my baby , but idk wether thats just the healthy anxiety inside of me talking ahah x

What age are they?? X

Never heard of this! We had an hour drive home from the hospital 😆

I have also never heard of this! I thought it was 2 hour

I've never heard of this, I was always told 2 hours was the max! And there was never any advice on how long to wait between stints if you were travelling longer... 10 minutes, 30 minutes, an hour?! No idea 😅

I think it depends on age and the car seat type. Saying that it was a 45 minute drive home from the hospital and we had to stop so I could use a toilet so took us about an hour to get home and my little girl is now almost 5 months and absolutely fine. But I believe its under 4 weeks old is 30 minutes and after that its 2 hours. As long as they dont end up slouching chin to chest in their car seat you'll be fine for that extra 15 minutes though x

No but we would sit in the back with him. To be honest I’ve always read this as advice around the uptick in people just putting car seats on pram bases and keeping babies in for muuuch longer than 30 mins.

I’ve heard the 30mins rule is generally for babies under 6weeks. Above this, you can leave them in the car seat for 2hours max, then they would need a break 🤷🏻‍♀️

my partners family live 45 minute drive from us and we’ve done that drive with our baby a few times now. he’s 11 weeks now and seems to be fine, doctor had no concerns at his 8 week check
