Today lesson was quite interesting. Surprisingly my boy able to sit down for the whole hour. even although abit fussy once in a while. Normally he can't sit still on the chair for more than 10 mins except highchair while eating.
So far not bad. i like the teachers there. very nice, patient and friendly.
After lesson, explain to me in detail how the class works and how the class will benefit the child.
After lesson i sign up another 12 weeks since this is the last 5 lesson. and still entitled for 44%.
Am looking forward to the next lesson

All Mac stuff good! As you can see, I'm slightly biased :p Hubby is using Samsung Omnia and so far he seems to like it very much, his brother too. Though...he's biased towards Samsung, haha! He says, no matter how you drop it, it'll still hold itself together! I don't recommend LG stuff...bad experience with majority of their electrical products.
 
all the while i've been using siemens b4 it was taken over by benQ. their hps are pretty lasting. i got a samsung hp about 1yr ago and after using it for about 2weeks the system hung whenever i try to retrieve contact to add to my sms. so i had to do a master reset whenever that happened. then about a mth ago it went kaput, the speaker is faulty, caller can hear me but i can't hear the caller. also no sound when i play my video clips. now using nokia, let's see how long it'll last.
 
Can I ask hor, can baby car seat be placed in the front seat, next to driver?

Or is there a law that states all must be placed behind?

For my case, I want it to be front facing, not rear facing type.

Anyone can advice?
 
ivy

i went... but find that the deals for this round is not as good as the last.... got some good deals though... :p all forgotten after the " major happening" as home... :p
 
Ryes, I don't think there's a law that states where the seat is to be placed. It's purely safety reason that the infant car seat be placed behind as there will be no air bag behind. Furthermore you want the seat to be front facing, which means if the air bag in front does activate itself, your baby would probably be suffocated by it.
 
Ryes,
I used to place the car seat infront when by gal was an infant whereby she's facing me. no rules says u cant put it infront.
u bout a car liao ah.
 
ryes, but most cars have a warning not to put infant seat infront for saftey reasons. btw, any reason why u want to put it infront?
 
Jfoo, dor and beans,

The front passenger dont have airbag, so the point about child being suffocated if airbag activated is ruled out.

Reason why, is coz if I"m driving, my girl will not sit still if she is sitting behind. And she wants to sit next to me. That's why I'm thinking if there's any law that says cannot put infront.

My dad place the car seat infront too when he drives out with her alone. But so far I didnt see anyone who does that lor. Mostly put behind, tts why just wondering. Scare later gena stop by traffic police lah.
 
we only place our girl in the front seat only when we drive alone with her which is not often and it is only from lor 2 to lor 4

. the worry is the airbag. if you don't have an air bag then it is safer for her. Don't worry, as long as you have her in a car seat, no police is going to give you a ticket

elijah,
wat major happenings??

Rye,
put at back is for safety, cos centre of back seat, less impact if hit. usually car kanna hit side, front i guess.
 
Ryes
I've checked SG Traffic Police website and related sites in the past. There is no rule about where the childseat must be put.

Generally parents will place the seat in the position recommended by the manufacturer. For most models of car seats, tests which were done show that the safest place is usually behind the passenger's seat.

Air bags (Front and/or Side) for the driver and front passenger are a standard safety feature. I'd be very surprised if your front passanger seat didn't have any at all.

If you want to put the childseat in front notwithstanding the manufacturer's recommendations, then do please make sure that you really dont have an airbag or that it's turned off.
 
Front seats are made to move, both the bottom seat, as well as the back rest VS Backseat which is generally fixed in position. In a collision, what can move will probably move. If you fix the childseat to a movable seat, how secure is the childseat?

Centre back seat - I think the practical problem here is that most childseats use the from-shoulder-across-lap seatbelt to secure the childseat to the carseat. Centreseat belts are usually only lap restraints. Also like passagers in the front seat, there would be no protection in a front collision.

Okay, that's my 4-cents worth for today

Hi Ryes,

i used to put my bb in the front seat too but after some consideration.. change him to back seat coz ofof safety reasons as my front seat gt airbag..
so now he is used to seating behind but front facing.. so he can still see me when i drive..maybe u slowly try when ur hub is driving.. let her seat behind.. =)hope it helps..
 
Hi everyone,

thanks for all your input.
Sunny, if I remember correctly, is really only the driver's seat that has airbag leh. The other front passenger one dont have. Let me double check tomorrow again. But think I heard it correctly.Only has 1 airbag.

BUt sigh..I think I did read the manufacturer's guide that the seat is suitable for back.

Placing the carseat in the center backseat is something new to me, coz all my friends and relatives,and my dad place the carseat right behind the driver's seat near the window.

So the seat is secured by the shoulder belt. I was thinking if it's in the center seat, isnt it also dangerous, if the child is not restraint, he may be thrown forward in between the driver and front passenger seat? (You know the gap in between where the gear box is)

My kids are like monkey in cars leh. I tried so many times with my boy in the carseat, he refuses, cry and yell. I think this sld be the intial stage hor...(trying to convince myself.hahah)

My girl? Happy happy will buckle the seatbelt herself. Not happY? Protest to take off lor. Haiz.
Thats why I'm resorting to place her infront lor.
 
eLIJAH Mum

Oh dear!!! How did u discover it? Did he choke or anything? Now my boy also like to put things into his mouth...tell me what happens after that, so that I can be prepared, in case..*touch wood*
 
Elijah,
oh my god! So everything fine now?? so poor thing, u must have been shock!

I have been so tired, 26weeks soon and i think start to feel some contractions..
 

Oh dear, Jasmine...

Sitting kids/toddlers/babies on car seats - it's a discipline thing. I remember we had problems with my daughter when she was little and she cried and screamed. Being first time parents then, I was soft-hearted so just carry lor. Then my mum told me must train her otherwise she'll think "mummy will carry" all the time. So from then on, we always insist. No starting the engine until everyone's seated properly. Journey comes to a halt if anyone disobeys. The kids now know that they can't play a fool.
