Do you have covers for your car seat straps?

I'm thinking of buying some sheepskin ones but i'm not sure. Sam often has red marks on his neck from the straps...am i doing something wrong?

I do not buy anything or attach anything to the car seat that didn't come with it. You might have his straps sitting too low or too tight possibly.

I wouldnt use anything that didnt come with the seat, but our seat did come with some little pads that go on the straps his skin from rubbing against his neck.

His straps could be too tight.. but without seeing it im not sure, maybe try the car seat safety board, im sure they will have a solution for you. Those ladies are very knowledgeable

Someone gave me some little pink velcro strap covers. They're about 4 inches long. They work fine.
