New trick for parents

sladezero · 04-18-2005, 09:01 PM

Hey there,

I know alot of you may say "NO WAY" to this. However, folding the front
passenger seat down all the way and using the plastic backing as a changing
table for the baby is quite nifty. We started doing this when none of the stores
we went to have changing stations. I will say BEWARE little boys....otherwise
you will have a colored ceiling lining. Just a thought.

Showing pictures to the kids first girlfriend in 15 years. And here's the stain where Mikey pissed all over the ceiling of our car.

Yep, did that a Easter weekend. My 2.5 year old needed changing, no baby change station, so passenger seat works fine.

I wouldn't do that if i had kiddos due the fact I use that seat back as a eating table when I travel if my Vue.

Especially helpful if it is raining outside. We were on a short trip and stopped at a gas station for fuel. As soon as we started back up, my daughter needed a diaper change. The gas station bathroom didn't offer a diaper deck and the clouds decided to deposit a "gullywasher" at that moment. No problem with the folding seat.

We've got a long drive (our first) with our month-old baby beancoming up soon, quite a bit cross-country. We'd figured on this as probabaly the best changing station we'll find on the majority of the route.

It would work fine so long as you didn't change the baby while moving.

Otherwise you end up with a news article and a thread in SaturnFans wondering if you're up for mother of the year nominations....

great idea but, we just used the hood............not while driving though........

Yep we use the fold down seat. Works great!

And if your kid can hit the ceiling that's one heckuva bladder!
