Does this happen to anyone else? Everytime we go somewhere and I can't sit in the back her head falls forward and looks so uncomfortable. She's almost 3 months so she cant completley hold her head up. I really bothers me and sometimes I pull over to fix it!

We had that problem until I adjusted the carseat base. If it does not self adjust, you may have to put rolled towels under it to level it so her head does not do that. My carseat also has a gauge on one side that lets you know just how much the seat can be tilted back, but still be in a safe position. That worked for us. It's so sad to see their little heads bobbing!

We did the same as Rachael. The inspector put what looked like one of those foam noodles that you play with at the pool, underneath the front of the base (closest to the seat) so the headrest would lean back further. We also got those velcro straps that you put around the actual restraints because this seemed to stiffen them up a bit to act as another support for my daughters head if it would fall forward. Good luck.

I had that problem and tried adjusting the base and putting towels under it, but I couldn't adjust it enough to prevent the problem, so I ended up taking out the base and just strapping the seat in every time we go somewhere. I think it's actually dangerous if their heads can fall forward.

Thanks, I am going to try the towel thing right now.
