Do you have issues with child's head bobbing up and down while sleeping?

Not really. His head does lol to the side when he falls asleep but he's 4 years old now so it's not a big deal.

It is for bigger children. My grandson is so awake when we go "bye bye". This sits straight up. It is not reclined where inertia or angular momentum would not matter. It could bob on smaller necks but driving conditions would affect.

Yes, I have twins and sometimes one falls asleep while the other takes in the scenery. One can be fully upright while the other can be getting cozy, fully reclined.

No...unfortunately I do the same thing. Very frustrating but I keep doing it because it keeps my baby sleeping! Can try rechargeables maybe to keep the costs down.

We took our son on a short hike a few weeks ago (he was just over 13months) and he did fall asleep in it. I mean it looked hellishly uncomfortable to me because his head was horizontal while his body was vertical, but he was out for 45 minutes of the walk back to camp. He seemed fine when we got back and woke him up getting him out of it. Almost like he was annoyed that we got him out. Is it comfortable? Who knows. I can't really ask him. Will he fall asleep? Yes, if he's tired enough.

You should never allow your child to sleep on his stomach in the first place. That's asking for SIDS. I know some of them are belly sleepers but buy something which forces them to sleep on their back.

I did . But what I did noticed is that every time my baby would fall asleep in the car seat his head would totally go forward . I would literally extend my arm while driving and hold his head upright until we got to our destination . I later on figured out that it was this thing that would caused my baby to sleep with his head forward. I wanted to return it but the expiration expired . Good luck

My daughter is 2 and her feet are dangling. She doesn't complain though. Her head was practically hanging out when we tilted the seat back for her to sleep.

I have not had this happen one time. My baby has been in the head down position for weeks now, but is constantly turning right side up, etc...whether I am wearing the band or not.

My son got a flat spot from sleeping (only at night) in the Rock n Play and only for the first 3 months. It was because he favored one side of his head and would tilt his head only one way to sleep. In a crib, gravity would cause his head to fall to the side so he would be sleeping more on his ear, which is flat anyway since it's the side of the head. The RnP is on an incline and allowed him to keep his head more upright so that caused the flat spot. He's 2.5 yrs old now and I still feel the flat spot on his head with my hand. It's not severe but definitely noticeable.

My son was probably 9 months old when I got it and it worked fine. I don't believe it reclines all the way down though. I agree, you would potentially need to add blankets or towels to avoid the head from moving side to side.

My son has slept better in this one than his previous seat. He hasn't had much head wobbling.

The head does wobble; in spite of that my son sleeps on the chair soundly. Maybe of those neck pillows will help? Buy yes, the chair is much more upright than the britax boulevard, for example.

I place it around my toddlers ankle when she is sleeping and place a sock over it. Anything around her neck while she is sleeping still makes me nervous. Otherwise it is always around her neck.

Very we'll naps are not a problem. Easy to do as well. just a pull of a string. And when they are ready to sit up and see what's going on you just pull it tight again.

Your child definietly must be able to hold head up without support. That's the best guideline in my opinion.

Did not have that problem. My kid weighs 35 lbs and you can't hear her turning over.

My kids (4 and 5--we bought 2 of these) don't really sleep in the car and on long trips we bring pillows but the few times they ended up asleep their heads end up in that little nook/cranny where you can see the headrest bows out in the picture. But I can see if your kid fell asleep in the right position, his chin ending up on his chest.Edit: Both my kids fell asleep in the car after a long day a few days ago. Both of them had their head cocked to the side resting against the headrest where it turns out (see picture).
