Is it advisable to go straight into a car seat 0-4yrs old or should I start with the infant carrier first? Not sure what the difference are since there are many that has the infant inset for car seat. Then again, I've read that infant carrier does have a better incline posture to support baby's spine, but I was thinking if a car seat is ECE certify and have the infant inset and it is for 0-4years, shouldn't it also be contoured for newborn posture?

Also, may I know where can I see/get/buy the Chicco NextFit?

Thanks. FTM

Thanks you for your respond, but I'm a really safe driver...in my 15 years of driving, I've only had 3 times of accident, all minor (just back light damage or back bumper). I've never bang anyone. Of course I am aware that I cannot control other driver's attitude..

And nope, I am not driving a potong car, my last car was a Kia CBU unit and my current is a CX 5. Putting that aside, I see alot of seats in the market and being a first time, I am rather overwhelmed as to which is actually a need, a better need or choice. Not asking about brand but merely what do I need to prepare/know or aware of before a newborn arrives pertaining to purchasing the ride seat for the baby, if I should buy an infant carrier for the 1st years (since I only read 1 article that says infant carrier has a better incline posture for the newborn spine) and then migrate to a convertible car seat when the baby has outgrown the carrier or I could get the convertible car seat straight away.

So I need some insight here from from you all

Why are they not safe? Anyway, I still need to take the baby around, for checkup, vaccination and such, care taker..I still need a car seat regardless of the car...right?

Don't read the negative comments and just go with a fitting yourself. Go to a baby shop like Babyjaya in Uptown and just test fit the seats/carriers in your CX5 and buy a suitable sized seat that can secure itself facing backwards (your kid cannot face forward until he/she is able to sit up right on his/her own). Whatever best fits is the best seat for you. All depends on the size of your baby. Find one that has good neck support otherwise buy seat paddings that'll support his/her neck so it doesn't move around.
Are you stupid or something? Modern cars are way more safer than older cars. CX5 has a 5-star NCAP safety rating. Good luck to you and your RM50 car seat. I pity your kid.

RM50 for a car seat, seriously i'm really doubt the quality for your car seat.
If it's a carrier, it still sounds reasonable, maybe you get this price during discount, my sweet cherry (local brand) carrier already cost me Rm100++ at non-sales day while car seat cost me RM200++.

Hey thanks. I will try to read more and hopefully get a good deal at the coming fair in Midvalley. I read that the maxi cosi pebble is an upgrade of cabriofix and it has both the isofix base and can be used with regular seat belt as well. because my car has isofix but my husband's does not. But unfortunately I have not found a site carrying the base. I might just go with just the seatbelt

Anybody heard of Hauck infant car seat and strollers? Though they have been around for a really long time (not in Malaysia) There isn't seems to be much reviews around even from oveasea. Just saw hauck at the fair, the mechanism seems very similar to Britax the price is slightly lower though and the infant car seat does have the ECE 44 certificate, but dare not buy....coz not much review
