So now that I'm in my 38th week, we finally got baby Minga's car seat professionally fitted. If you buy it from Baby Bunting, they will fit it in for only $25 vs if you get RACV to do it which will cost about $50+. Apparently 80% of car seats done by amateurs always get it wrong which was why all of our friends one step ahead of us told us to get it done professionally as it's pretty hard to do it correctly yourself.
The guy did it in like 15mins and also gave us a whole lesson on how to put the baby's seat belt on properly. Gosh so much to learn.. I told Mr M to pay attention as he will be in charge of putting his son in the car as my mind is already over loaded with baby information. We're going to take a teddy bear later on to do a test run before we have to really put baby Minga in the seat. We also went to buy the baby mirror which allows the driver to look at the baby & the baby to look at his parent since the baby seat is currently facing the back window. Golly gosh the mirror alone costed $28 & that was already on special down from $35! What a rip off!
After the car seat was fitted, Mr M & I turned around to look at the car seat & boy it looked so surreal. Both of us pretended baby Minga was already in the car seat & played along with carrying a baby conversation. hahaha... so funny! Then we went to Knox City to have lunch & decided we can actually park in the Mobility section of the shopping centre (which are car parks closer to the shops for parents with prams) cos we knew we could get away with it now that we have a car seat in the car! yay!

oh dear, my carseat probably is never installed correctly, looking at the high percentage of wrong installation by amateurs. we installed it ourselves. dunno how to do it, so just simply hook it on the anchorage.
