First off, I have made up my mind about this, so please don't feel the need to "educate" me. I am fully aware of what is safest, but I have made a decision and now I need help to make sure that decision is carried out in the best and safest way possible.
My daughter is 4 and has just hit 30 lbs. She is 39" tall. She's in a Marathon, and will continue to be in it for the foreseeable future.
However, I am going to purchase a belt-positioning booster as a secondary seat. We are expecting a new baby, and I will be relying more and more on others to transport her to and from preschool and other activities. I simply cannot and won't ask them to install a harnessed seat; most of them have more than 1 child of their own to deal with and it's not going to happen.
My pediatrician is very comfortable with this decision, as my daughter's height and maturity are acceptable to use a booster occasionally for short trips. Again, this is only a secondary seat, and she will stay in the Marathon when riding with me.
So, what suggestions do you have for a lightweight comfortable booster appropriate for a petite child? Thank you very much for your answers.
