4. Car Safety Is Highly Important
It is not uncommon to want to see your little one’s glowing face in your rearview mirror while driving, especially when they are fussy. However, before a child hits one year of age, their head is substantially disproportionate to their body, causing harm if facing forward during an accident. During impact, their head will fall forward more dramatically, increasing the likelihood and severity of spinal cord and neck injuries.
Ensure your child’s safety by keeping them in a rear-facing car seat until they are at least 1 year old and 20 lbs. Also, never under any circumstances leave your baby in the car unattended, ride with your infant in your lap, or put your baby in the front passenger seat of your car, not even in a car seat.
