  • Me:

    middle of the back seat is the safest

  • toplightworker:

    Middle of the back seat is the safest place. So, tell me about the necessity of sitting back there with her? Does she have a medical problem?

  • tanecia h:

    on the right side of the car so you can see the baby while you’re driving.

  • rmm:

    I would say the middle. really what your preference is with the vehicle

  • weldermommy:

    The safest residency for a car seat is in the center of the rear seat, or of the center seat in a van or rank wagon. Never install a rear-facing car seat in a front seat equipped with a passenger-side air bag. Keep your baby in a rear-facing car seat until he reaches 12 months and 20 lbs. at a minimum — but the longer you can keep him in a rear-facing position, the safer he’ll be. (Read our article to find out more about why and when to have your child face forward.) If your baby’s head flops forward, you can make the seat more level and comfortable by wedging a folded rub down, blanket, or other firm support below the front of it.

    If you do not have amiddle seatin the back iof your car place the car seat on the passanger side of the back seat. So if you have to park you are not having to take the car seat out with your back to traffic. Also, if you must happen to get hit by an incoming car it would typically hit the drivers side of the car. Which means byhaving the car seat on the passanger side backs eat the impact wil be less serve.

  • D-izzle:

    well i would place it on your right because then you could see the child and feel safe

  • ♥Keetta♥:

    I hear all saying the middle is the safest. I’m assuming so that if you get hit on either side, the baby will be less harmed. I had twins, so of course the middle was impossible. If you have one baby it would make sense to use the middle. But I don’t reckon there is a need to sit back there with her.

  • Teresa:

    The safest spot is the middle of the back sit but it’s really up to you where you want to place her. Doctors will tell you though that the safest place for the baby is in the middle of the back sit just in case of a wreck or whatever. My daughter is 2 years ancient and she subdue sits in the middle and until I have another baby she will be in the middle then I will place the baby in the middle and her on the side.

  • ♥Gatekeeper♥:

    In the center of the back seat facing the rear.

  • xinerevelle:

    The safest is the middle, since an accident could occur where the side of the car is impacted. In the middle, there is less of a opportunity for baby to be hit.

    I would urge buying a mirror that attaches to the back of the rear seats so that you can look in your rear view mirror into that mirror and see baby when she is in her rear-facing car seat.

    Plus, being in the middle, I find it simple to just reach back and pop that pacifier back in when she starts getting cranky and wants to take a nap. :)

  • Rosey55 D:

    The safest would be in the middle of the back seat.

  • erin b:

    Statistically, the middle of the back seat is the safest place in the car. It makes sense – it is going to be the least impacted whether there is a front, rear or side collision.

  • Shelly Lynn:

    I kept my infant seat in the middle of the backseat. But when we went to the older baby carseat, I went her to the back passenger side. That way I could glance back at her if need be and I did not break my back getting her in and out. And I fit back there with her when we have extra passengers and someone has to ride in the back. My mom came with us to one Dr Appointment and I had to ride in the back with the infant seat in the middle. yeah, it is cramped. But I felt safest with her in the middle when she was a teeny baby. I had a mirror so that I could see her. But like I said, now that she is older, she is on the right side of the car. she likes it because she can look out the window.

  • peanutter04:

    middle of the back seat

  • Mildred G:

    behind the drivers or passengers seat in case there is an accident and baby’s seat and baby is stay place.

  • lkn4trth:

    The middle of the back seat is the safest place.

  • littleangelfire81:

    You’ve already gotten several right answers of the middle is the safest place for kids to be, but, the real safest place is where the seat fits best. In my compact car (’99 Honda Town coupe) car seats don’t fit in the middle at all for 2 reasons: There’s a hump in the middle and I can’t get seats tight there , and no one could sit in drivers or passenger side seats if if a seat was rear facing in the middle in the back. So I couldn’t place my son there, and in my mom’s car, where there’s 2 kids, can’t place either in the middle or they won’t both fit. Here’s the best way to place it: she’s not unsafe in an outboard position, she’s just safest in the middle.
