OK, so I have now discussed the things you should think about when it comes to picking out what kind of baby stroller you want. I also explained what each type of baby stroller is.

Since I have been talking about car seats, I figured I would keep with the theme and discuss the convertible seat. This is the one car seat that is an absolute must have baby thing.

They are infant car seats, convertible car seats and booster car seats. Today I am going to give you a brief overview of what each is. My next couple of posts will discuss them individually in more detail.
