LiteMax 35

My baby’s currently in an Evenflo Litemax 35 and I really screwed up with that purchase. It’s a great car seat, she’s comfy in it. Easy to install, easy to click into the stroller… but the space it takes! My stupid pregnancy brain never even thought to factor that into my decision. And the worst part is, I procrastinated for so long before buying the darn thing. 

I also had a baby who just hated the car seat. Same experience, it made it worse when I sat in the back. I tried every car seat my friends had, including all that are mentioned here, it made no difference in the early days. He eventually outgrew it by 5 ish months and is not completely normal and happy in the car seat. I truly don’t believe it has anything to do with the specific seat for most car seat hating babies, they just don’t like the separation and confinement.

We purchased an even Flo travel system and it was so convenient, we got a 2nd lite car seat. The only thing kind of sad is now at 15 m we have to upgrade the seat (height capacity). We got the Evenflo extend 360 and I was thinking did I make a mistake because it can be used from infancy… but we used our travel system a lot and never had trouble taking our stroller and seat and clipping it in off the plane.

This might not be what you want to hear but some babies just hate car seats. You could try out the other one you have but my kiddo cried in both of his. The only thing that made a difference was if I sat in the back with him and my husband drove the car.

Hi! My child is 11 weeks old and she absolutely hates the car seat. It makes going anywhere very difficult! We have the Evenflo Litemax infant car seat. It was gifted to us and I didn’t do any research at all on any others. This one literally hardly has any padding and so I’m wondering if that’s possibly why? It seems uncomfortable to me. We have the Evenflo revolve360 convertible seat but I don’t watch to switch at the moment since it’s winter. Does anyone have any recommendations for an infant seat that their child doesn’t hate? Or maybe someone has a similar case as mine and they found one that their child liked? Thanks in advance!
