Can I give my son a bottle while he's in his car seat? He's 8 weeks tomorrow. We're driving to Virginia andvtraffic held us up about an hour longer than we planned which means the little guy will need a bottle sooner than we'll get there. :-S

    I didnt start giving my baby a bottle in her carseat until she could hold her own bottle at 4-5 months old. Otherwise she kept dropping it and crying

    @kayleigh27 Do you think it'd be ok of I sat back there with him and held the bottle for him?

    It should be fine as long as you can hold it for him. Ive done it twice and my son was ok he will be 8 weeks tomorrow

    I'm always worried about what ifs. What if someone rear ends my car and the bottle gets smashed into her mouth or chokes her. I always think about that.

    Thank you all! Giving him a bottle as we speak! :)

    The problem I worry about with my LO is him choking and me not being able to get him out in time. The carseat belts are so restrictive. (for good reason) but I wouldn't. It's worth the babies safety to just pull over to a gas station.
