No Sweat Baby Gear

Did anyone just read the scary headlines about infant car seats 10 out of 12 most popular failing crash tests?

I use the Chicco key fit which they are now saying only use with a seatbelt, not the base. Luckily my daughter will have a new car seat by tomorrow since she has outgrown hers anyway. I can’t find any safety ratings about the Eddie Bauer Montecito or any stage two car seats or convertible seats. Anyone know of any good websites outside of national safety and traffic admin.
The tests that were done were using both the latch system and the seatbelt. Some of the carseats didn’t stay attached to the bases, so it doesn’t matter how the base is attached. The gov’t only tests front crash not sides, so the study probably has some validity to it. Basically the argument is that Europe’s standards are higher and the US does not set a high enough standard for safety. (35 miles an hour is nothing. If most car seats don’t pass that then there truly is a problem here.

I know it is really scary! I am pregnant with my second child and guessing I should buy a new car seat for the new baby!
