Choosing the right car seat is one of the most important decisions you'll make. It can be a bit daunting, particularly when buying the first one, needed to take your baby home from the hospital/ for your first trip out. But even later on there seem to be a bewildering array of choices and a huge range in prices - so it's worth working out what's important to you.
