Road trip certified

We had our car seat evaluation today!
That means they put Mathias in his car seat (still hooked up to heart rate, breathing, and oxygen monitors) for an hour and watched to see what happened. They're watching to make sure he manages sitting at the 45 degree, or whatnot, angle without his breathing being impaired - nobody wants to be going 65 miles an hour down the Interstate and having a spell! We're pleased to announce that he passed! I don't think it would mean that he couldn't leave the hospital without passing, they'd just need to get you a special seat.

Hello!
How exciting!!! I promise you that the time run away when you have a wonderful little child to follow. We know - today it´s Lucas 3rd birthday (he´s our youngest...) but it feels like he was born yesterday.
Have a nice weekend!
Best wishes from Ålberga

YAY!! He passed.. that is great news.. It seems like just yesterday that Randie had the car seat test and also passed. However if she did not pass she could NOT leave the hospital until you got a seat that she would pass in.. there were some parents that went through several seats before their babies passed.
