hi any advice anyone?

luke isn't a prem baby but he is small and we took him out in the car seat for the first time yesterday and he had such problem breathing as he was so scrunched up as the car seat was so big for him. when we got home he was really pale and had dark eyes and i'm sure his oxygen was reduced for the journey and he only really pinked up when he had his next feed, it was a little scary.

what we have done now is taken out the newborn padding so he can lie a bit flatter and we'll have to pad him in with towels/ blankets.

how have you all managed and do you have any other suggestions?
wasn't sure where to post this so i'll put it in the ask a mum section as well, thanks Lisa xx
 
we had the same problem, we rolled up her blankets to wedge her up a bit
