Hi to all Bay Arean's,

This is Ashra frm oct board.2day morn i had my free car seat installation check up at Dublin
Babies'R' us.It was inspected by the Sr.Highway Patrols of Alameda/contra costa county.They said more than 95% of children's car seats are used r installed incorrectly..At first we thought itz easy to install the base in the car seat & we did install also but when we took it for the safety check up we were totally wrong ,in one pull the total base has come out of the seat.Each car has itz own way of Latch & belt.most of us doesnt know it.Then the technician taught us how it shud have been installed & she did install for us once again.i must say it was very useful .hmm the cops r not that rude...i always think they r rude but 2day i realized that even they r nice too..2day it was at dublin .Here is the next schdule for the safety check,all r by appointments but wont worry
even if u dont have one still they give u 1 right there...

Radhika Vindhya replied. Hi Ashra,

I can't believe your generosity and concern. Thanks for sharing the info. I might go to Union City, will buy the car seat from Babies R'Us and get it fixed then and there itself.

We would love to hear about your baby and your birth story. Have a safe delivery.

Take care,
Vindhya
