Car journeys

So my 6 week old HATES the car! And I mean HATES. Screams the whole time. A scream like I have never heard before. Anyone have any tips?

what seat are they in? could be a fit issue making them uncomfortable as i can imagine you’re making sure they’re fed and clean before going in xx

A joie spin 360 goes up to 4 years

My daughter likes listening to this one specific song I used to listen to when I was pregnant with her. So we have it on repeat.

Mine screams for 10 minutes and then falls asleep. Sometimes if we go to the gp or he is not well, i give him a dummy and it does the trick. we don’t really use the dummy except special situations cause i feel it makes him more unsettled sometimes, like when he is trying to fall asleep.

@Natalie i think they’re far too young and small to be in that, it won’t be providing a safe or comfortable fit xx

@Amy it’s from birth onwards…

@Luiza might try a dummy but feel she will spit it out and I can’t reach to put it back in 😂

@Natalie just because it says that doesn’t actually mean it is.. you can join car safety groups on here and facebook to ask for a fit check and see what they think x

My LO sometimes does the same but I’m of the opinion that we have to go in the car sometimes so she has to get over it if I’m by myself and can’t do anything! I don’t want to get into the habit of pulling over every 5 seconds to put a dummy back in or to settle her (unless it was about to be a long car journey) I think it’s defo something they grow out of, my 3 year old used to do the same at around 3 months and she’s absolutely fine in the car now x

My son does too! Have you thought of seeing a cranial osteopath? My friend went for her baby who was born in Dec and it was tension in her neck, she changed her car seat and has said she’s like a different baby! I’m thinking of changing his car seat too, & to the joie 360 as my daughter is in that and I’ll get her a different one x
