One of the many reasons I will not be having children. I forget my tea steeping like 80% of the time. I don't need a life in my hands
I hear you, but as a fellow scatterbrain, the solution is that your shoe goes next to the car seat before you load it. Or something else, but a shoe is pretty hard to forget.
"I'm sorry, officer, you see, this person on the Internet told me to put something important with the baby so I wouldn't forget it, so I gave it my car keys, and now they're both locked in the car!"
Just have the baby drive to a mechanic!
We just have a mirror on the rear headrest. That way anytime I look in the rear view mirror I see her.
Aren't mirrors not recommended because of the potential hazard of them shattering and piercing baby in a car accident? It's why I don't have one; I wonder if that's why these other parents didn't, either
It doesn't have to be a glass mirror. Any reflective material is fine and that can be done on fairly soft material. But yes, the hazard is a harder mirror becoming an additional projectile in a car crash a whacking the baby in the face.
