Car Seat Upgrade
After purchasing our first car seat (Uppa Mesa) two months before Cataleya was born, we left the huge box just sitting in our living room. Then I was 37 weeks pregnant and my midwife Renee asked if we installed it into our car yet ?. We just thought to swing by a fire department and have them ensure we installed it right. What we didn’t know was that most aren’t technicians nor certified. Here is a good article to read from the Car Seat Blog ?. That’s when Renee recommended Karen Apolinario, who’s is a Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST).
Learning CPR
This past weekend my husband and I took a CPR AED course. Jezriel took one in high school and I’ve never attended one, so I had no idea what to expect. I really wanted us to take it because I want to feel more comfortable practicing baby led weaning with my daughter. She’s 7.5 months old now and I’ve been holding back on her playing and/or exploring solids. Wasn’t too worried pushing off solids, because I knew she was still getting all her nutrients from breastfeeding.
