Car beds: For Infants Who Must Ride Lying Down
Infants who are premature, very small, or have other medical conditions may
experience dangerous breathing or heart rate problems when seated in the semi-
reclined position of a rear-facing car seat. The hospital should monitor at-risk infants in
a car seat before discharge. In some cases, a doctor will determine that the child may
go home only if riding in a lying down position.
In these situations, a car bed must be used – but options are limited to those listed
here. (For ordering information, see the Car Beds—Direct Sales and Distributors list,
below.)
