When it's cold outside

Lilly was born in the dead of winter- January 3, 2010, right smack in the middle of two of the biggest snow storms Virginia and DC have ever experienced.  So having a winter baby I know the challenges that come with keeping your little one warm, while also keeping them safe.  Jackets/ snow suits are unsafe for the carseat since the extra padding can interfere with tightening the straps.  Any winter cover that goes under the baby voids the warranty of the carseat and can make it unsafe.  The ever popular JJcole bundle me goes between the baby and the carseat making it unsafe for carseat usage (could still be used in a stroller).

After searching high and low for a carseat cover that would not interfere with the mechanics of the carseat but also keep Lilly nice and toasty was a challenge.  Finally I found the PoshPouch by Kiddopotamus.

The PoshPouch is made of a soft cover that keeps your baby warm and dry.  The soft faux suede is wind- and water-resistant, while the plush faux fur keeps baby cozy.  The cover is easily slipped over the outside of the carseat and stays in place with its elastic edges.  It is machine washable and has a pocket for cellphones, keys, or shopping lists.



If you have a winter baby, this is absolutely the best option to keep your baby warm.  

Color choices are: pink, green, and graphite.
