  • @MarcusR2Gail Lol, How did I miss this? Madison could not be breastfed, she had jaundice and her mother was simply not making enough milk. I think the doctors working in the NICU know a little more about her than you. Unsafe pacifiers? It was basically a Soothie(which she primarily used) with a holder on it. There was absolutely no way for either of those pieces to get into her mouth if she somehow used her super strength to get it apart. Amazingly she's made it to 4 1/2 years,happy and healthy.

  • @MarcusR2Gail I am trying to promote extended rearfacing for toddlers,ONLY. This was made for her father to see because he wasn't sold on extended rearfacing. Those were the only pictures I had of her in her seat so I chose those. Her bottle has never been propped in her life,she was 12 months in those pictures. I said you don't know anything about MADISON,and her reasons for not breastfeeding. How you feed and pacify your baby is a personal decision, it has nothing to do with my niece's video.

  • @MarcusR2Gail Bottle feeding and and pacifiers have absolutely nothing to do with riding in a carseat. This was made to convince someone to continue rearfacing this baby, who was already bottle feeding for medical reasons and using a pacifier.I didn't need to promote anything to them. I promoted extended rearfacing which is all I want to do here. Any further comments varying from car seat safety will be removed.

  • @ruthven78 There is absolutely no evidence that a forward facing harnessed seat is any safer than a booster for children who are mature enough to use a booster. That aside, the belts stretch significantly in a crash, both the vehicle seatbelt AND the internal harness of the child restraint. As a CPST I have studied passenger restraint systems quite a bit. What gives you so much expertise? Not being snarky, I honestly want to know what led you to the conclusions you have...

  • @tmccraw1979 The Graco Nautilus if a forward facing only seat, if you like the Nautilus otherwise I would suggest the Graco Myride 65, rear facing to 40 pounds, forward facing to 65, virtually the same buckles...

  • @MarcusR2Gail I seriously hope that MY doctors are trained in breastfeeding as both of them (my Obgyn and my PCP) are mothers of small children who breastfed.

  • THANK YOU so much for posting!!! I kept debating about forward or rear-facing my 1 year old (who just turned 1, is over 31 inches long & 21 lbs)....I was thinking I might face him forward UNTIL I saw this video & burst into tears AND did my homework on other sites as well...I have changed my mind! He will be rear-facing now when we install our Graco Nautilus! :) I'm so sorry for the RUDE comments some made that have NOTHING to do with car-seat safety on here! THANK YOU AGAIN!!! :)

  • @MarcusR2Gail You realize people can pump breastmilk into bottles so the father can experience feeding & bonding time, right? What about mothers who work, they also pump. I plan on staying home with my baby and I will still pump so dad can share in feeding time. Bottles are not bad, I think what you're concerned about is formula.

    Also, Pacifiers have been shown to reduce SIDS.

  • @MarcusR2Gail Are you on CRACK? This is an amazingly educational video (that I have been reposting for a long time). Who in the hell are you to say she can't show bottle feeding & pacifiers in a car seat safety video???? And how do you know that's NOT breast milk in the bottle? I don't even know why I am trying to respond to you. You have just blown YOUR credibility for being so ignorant. Seriously, I'm totally speechless.
