Would you recommend this seat for triplet newborns? Three in a row while rear-facing.

I have twins. I strongly recommend the Graco Snugride 30 Infant Carrier until they are at least six months. You will not want to wake sleeping babies when you get home! And the infant support on the Combi pushes small babies heads forward, which is not good for NICU babies. I speak from experience...I have twins, one was in NICU, and used to foster newborns. I have never had a baby under ten pounds that fit well in this. Three across would be hard to buckle, unless you can reach through the trunk or over the top from the front seat. The buckle pieces have to be overlapped to snap in together at the crotch. That being said, we love this seat for small spaces! My first born used this seat in our sports car for several years. Very light weight and convenient. Can be a pain to install rear facing, if you don't have a tether point. If you buy these, you will want to go to a car seat installation station (check with your hospital). Also, I'll warn you that your babies will likely outgrow these seats by height before they are old enough to use a booster. I ended up buying Britax Boulevards for mine. They have higher quality fabric that is way easier to wipe to clean (you do not want to have to remove the covers when they poop through their clothes or spit up). They also work fine for tiny babies, if you absolutely don't want to purchase infant carriers. Three across all rear facing, all forward facing, and any combination of rear/forward works fine with Britax in our GMC Terrain. Combis are slightly narrower and take up less front to back space, so if you're driving a tiny car, these are for you! If you have a retailer near you, most baby stores will let you take them to the car to try them out. I got a great deal on my Graco carriers at Kohls w/cashback and 30% off. Amazon does occasionally have great deals in the open box section, too. (My other must purchase items for multiples are an Ergobaby Backpack and Podee Feeding System) Congratulations! It will get easier around six months!

I loved the seat, but only had it for one, and didn't use it for her as a newborn. It's certainly one of the smallest footprint seats I've seen. It would not allow you to pop the seat in and out of the car with the baby in it, which one big advantage of the other sort of seat.

Yes, I would. My son was 6lbs. At birth and fit well in this car seat, especially with the insert that's included. We used the car seat rear facing until he was 2 years and 8 months old.

This car seat is only rear facing. The base is designed to face to the rear. It cannot be safely secured to the seat of the car if you attempt to turn the base forward facing. By the time your child is old enough to face forwards, they will need a new (larger) more upright seat. I bought the Radian R120... which is good for up to 120 pounds. I will have no problem with this seat as my daughter grows.

Hard to say. My second son was very much like that but when i switched him from infant to the next seat it mostly stopped. It completely stopped when i turned his seat around. But he also got car sick really easily when facing backwards.

I don't think it is good for a newborn. When my daughter was born i was unble to use it becuase the seat it is to deep and i felt that she was kind of sinking into the seat, it was forcing her little back to seat and a newborn is not yet ready for that.

I am sorry, i did not understand your question. You can change the angle to 3 different position, it is quite stable and comfortable for baby to sit. Just if the baby is heavy and always keep shaking, it would wobble somehow

Yes. My baby is 16 mon. old and still using the deepest reclined position (rear facing) so that she is comfortable if she falls asleep.The recline feature is one of the main reasons I chose this seat.

Absolutely. It actually fits in the front or back positions. Either way, the car seat is rear facing. This is cool in two ways. First, if you put the car seat in the front, your newborn and elder child can face each other and interact. If the infant is sleeping and you don't want them disturbed, you can place the in the back and your elder child in front to look out at the world.If you have twins, no problem, because it also accommodates 2 car seats at a time. I found the stroller is not as big as everyone states. I have a Toyota Corolla and it fits fine in the trunk. People who complain about the size just have cars like Ford's that have very little trunk space. Absolutely. It actually fits in the front or back positions. Either way, the car seat is rear facing.

Yes. We have two of these seats for both our kids. They've been using them rear-facing from about age 6m and have both since converted for forward-facing. The seat works well both ways. We think this is a good car seat, the kids seem to find it comfortable. They only real downside for us is that they are very wide, so with two of these in the back seat there is not much room left in the middle.

I have mine rear facing in a second row, captain chair in a mini van. It works well and we are very pleased. This is the second car seat of this same style and brand we have purchased because I loved it so much for my son who is now 2 and is still riding in his forward facing now and we still love it.

No, I don't think so - these seats are too long (front to back), as they can seat two small children on each seat.

I didn't have twins, mine are 18 months apart. You can't have two car seats, not sure how old your twins are. If they are older and sitting normal, i would say it could work. One side is larger than the other, great for a smaller/bigger kid combo. It is flimsy, but it's sturdy enough. If you are looking for a small, easy to maneuver and fold, one that fits in a small car, don't need to infants in there, it's an affordable option.

He needs to be two for this car seat. American Academy of Pediatrics best practice is rear facing until two.

Correction to "Mother of Twins"--at 22lbs/head w/in 1" of top, then put the headrest on and continue RFing till 35lbs. My daughters rear-faced until ages 2 and 3 in this seat, and now one is still using it as a 5 yr old FFing. I am buying a new one for my baby now.

Yes this car seat is wondeful! I did two hours of research and found this one to be one of the best! My son is pretty tall for his age and this rear facing was great for him bc it allows for taller children to still be rear facing!!

There are 3 positions. We actually "rigged" it so that it had a higher position for newborn. I am sure it is not recommended to do that but it was sturdy.

It does not make any problem for my twins.This stroller is excellent we really like it so much. The only problem my wife is facing is that it is heavy for her and the seats are not very comfortable for babies. You need to put a blanket or something else below.

Yes. I have 4 grandsons and when each was the age and height of your baby, the seat worked perfectly.
