Well we had a look in the BF today at those blue clips, and ended up with these things that dome over the straps with the domes at the back so they can't get them off, they were only $10 so if they don't work it's no big deal, but worth a try! Couldn't figure out how the blue clips worked.]]> Fri, 30 May 2008 19:30:37 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17719&PID=399516&title=what-to-do-with#399516 <![CDATA[What to do with... : those blue clips are pretty much...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17719&PID=398621&title=what-to-do-with#398621 Author: Two Blondinis

those blue clips are pretty much toddler proof as we struggle to get it undone (that doesn't mean they are Gremlin proof though!)

I think I paid $9 at Baby City

Just do it up almost under her chin, she'll never get her arms out of the straps then (hopefully!)]]> Thu, 29 May 2008 21:42:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17719&PID=398621&title=what-to-do-with#398621 <![CDATA[What to do with... : Nah let them try and kill each...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17719&PID=398358&title=what-to-do-with#398358 Author: mummy_becks

It gets better. Tonight Sienna got her arms our (just out of the straps, not fully undone) and leaned over and bit a huge chunk out of Mercedes hand and there was nothing I could do till I could pull over, she was hanging onto poor Mercedes fingers with her teeth for dear life

Tomorrow to the Baby Factory for car seat clips. Failing that, I'll separate the little tarts, one can go next to Maya and one next to baby. Oooh hang on, maybe not next to baby ]]> Thu, 29 May 2008 19:10:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17719&PID=398354&title=what-to-do-with#398354 <![CDATA[What to do with... : How about making a cloth cover...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17719&PID=398264&title=what-to-do-with#398264 Author: SMoody

How about making a cloth cover you can pull over it perhaps? McKayla did this with me when she was still rear facing.

Put both little gremlin hands in mittens, then tie them together. Do the same thing to Sienna so she can't undo Mercedes' (and vice versa).

Can you do it up so the bit you push to undo it is facing her??? So it is back to front - do you get what I mean???

See the gremlins just don't get the whole yelling thing. They think it means "keep doing what I'm doing and grin cheekily at the same time coz that will *really* pee mum off!"

Maybe the clip across the top would work, if she can't get it open. As far as I'm concerned, car seats are a non negotiable, so I have to get the message across somehow!]]> Thu, 29 May 2008 11:21:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17719&PID=397852&title=what-to-do-with#397852 <![CDATA[What to do with... : Blake gets out of his as well...so...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17719&PID=397824&title=what-to-do-with#397824 Author: Kelpa

Blake gets out of his as well...so we lock the top bits above the 5 point harness with a clip thing..up high.

Plus I also did a whole yelling drama thing one day and so did Paige. He still does it now and then but not every time!

Hannah got out one day and I flipped in a huge way. Yelling... yelling... and a bit more yelling.

She hasn't really done it since then.

Is she old enough to respond to a stern lecture about safety?? Otherwise I've got nothing.

A Mercedes who gets her carseat straps undone, climbs over the back seat and tries to get Sienna's straps undone?

I nearly crashed this morning when I looked in my rear view mirror and saw Miss Thang bouncing around on the back seat. I had to pull over and strap her back in. She'd gotten one side of her buckle undone and then managed to wriggle out of the other side. I strapped her back in and five mins later she was at it again. Needless to say there was a lot of mummy growling going on!

Help! How do I make her stay in the carseat? Straitjacket maybe?]]> Thu, 29 May 2008 10:26:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17719&PID=397761&title=what-to-do-with#397761
