Learn about how to use a pool noodle or rolled towel to get proper recline for your rear-facing only (RFO) infant seat or rear-facing convertible carseat. I cover what size they need to be, where to place the noodle/towel, and how many you may need. Finally I demonstrate carseat installations with a noodle and a towel (plus, as always, I give you a couple of installation tricks 😉).
