car seat links

Here is another helpful link on car seats,
http://pediatrics.about.com/od/carseats/a/special_needs.htm

I am finding that almost all these special needs car seats start at $1000.00-$3000.00 plus shipping.
Unless you can find one used or use a regular car seat and custom fit it to your child with rolled up towels, and small pillows and neck pillows.  Yes all this is extra work and will make the child hotter but this is what we have done for Jewel all along.  We have never had a special needs car seat for her.  Up until now she has fitted into regular car seats with rolled up towels, folded towels and her sisters in the back seat giving her support.  They help re position her, put her legs in criss cross position when her hips are spasming and they put her head back in the car seat when she flops out.  God bless sisters!
