These are the car seats I have and LOVE.
The first three are made for a minimum to maximum weight limit of 4 to 100 pounds, they all can be used in the rear-facing, forward-facing, and booster positions, so you won't need more car seats through your child's life!
Below, I describe each one,why I love each, and their unique features, and link them all!

Shop nontoxic color
This is our INFANT car seat that we use as a travel system from 0 to 12 months approx. It works great with our Uppa Baby Stroller that we love, for those first months when you don't need to wake up baby to get out of the car. A lifesaver but, not NEEDED. So if you are on a budget, go directly to one of the other 3 seats and skip the infant car seat!
Also: make sure you want this car seat to use as a travel system with your Uppa Baby stroller. If you don't have one, it's pointless to buy an infant car seat.
Extremely easy to use and install
Designed to minimize error when installing
Indicates if it's correct (green) or wrong (red)
keeps an infant’s head stationary during a side impact collision
the HENRY color linked here is a CHEMICAL FREE FIRE RESISTANT fabric, using Merino Wool aka made without the toxic flame retardant chemicals!
