Re. Car seat sleeping
Surely you wouldn't be also able to detect if baby has stopped breathing in the rear view mirror when driving? Same as if the monitor is on them at home?
I have always made sure I'm watching the monitor carefully (which is directed on her torso and face) no blankets, positioned well, not wearing too many layers etc. She's also almost 1.
I would never put my baby to sleep for night time in a car seat. If she needed to be upright I would settle in for the evening in bed with her on my chest! And also you can't even see Ada's face on the monitor.
I'm curious as to if other parents do what I do or just end the nap when the car journey is finished? I obviously want to keep my baby safe, I didn't realise people didn't do this. As I thought it was ok for baby to sleep in the car seat for up to 2 hours.
