How to dress baby to bring her home from the hospital in California winter?
Possum asked:
Most books, brochures, and web sites mention that babies are released from hospitals in receiving blankets. However, it is not clear how to secure baby in the car seat with 5-point harness if he/she is blanketed? We live in SF and expect to bring our baby home in January. Thank you very much!

what my wife and i did was put our baby in the car seat then wrap the baby around them. i’m in sacramento myself and we’re having a baby in march. all i plan to do is a long sleeved pants outfit along with a cap and blanket
We wrapped our baby in the receiving blanket. As you leave the hospital you have the option of having your wife hold the baby as she’s wheeled out…or you can strap the baby in the car seat and put it on the wheel chair handles.. You can take another blanket and cover the entire car seat so when you transfer the baby to the car, he/she is protected from the weather. Usually, the other person (father, friend, etc) can pull the car right up to the door.
