Does the seat recline enough for a baby who can't support his head yet? we can use extra padding, but if the angle is wrong don't want him to scrunch

The seat does recline. My grip with this stroller is that the front wheel is rigid and will not turn side to side.

The seat will recline but I didn't put my daughter in it until she was about 11 months. But she was also a very small baby when she was born 5.6

I wouldn't think this would be a good one for a baby that can't support their head yet. It's a nice stroller when they get a little older unless you live in the country then it sucks and it's hard to turn and jog with.

It will fit. If you need to have it very reclined for a newborn/infant angle, it will be difficult or impossible. With an angle adjuster (can be used with a child who can sit up unassisted), it will be justfine - and will have the most space if installed in the center seating position.Maximum height is 44 inches or 1.5 inches of shell above head, whichever comes first. It's typically about a size 5 shirt.

Are you asking: in the reclined position, is the seat definitely in a 45 degree angle? I've never measured the exact angle. it does change the incline a bit and the babies are comfortable. Sorry about the vague answer to a specific question.

If your child is able to sit up on his own with a helmet and not get tired, then physically, yes, he should be ready. There isn't any way for your child to recline with most bike seats, including this one, and if you go over any bumps that is going to add to the need for your child to have neck strength. Personally, with all the uncertainty about bouncing and brain development, etc., we didn't put our little one in this until he was 1.

It reclines, but not very far. If your child can sleep in a more upright position, then it would be fine.

The Support Is Pretty Good. Our One Year Old Leans To The Side And Her Head Stays There Without The Straining. She Does Tend To Just Hang Her Neck Down The Middle. When That Happens, Theres Not Much Help

You can rectify flat head up to 6 month old. It did help my daughter a little but it doesn't do miracles. Make sure to give him a lot of tummy time.

I have mine rear facing for my 13 month son. We mostly have it reclined but can not recline to all positions. I think it would sit up to all the positions but this is not necessary because his head would slump forward. He is reclined enough though. I can adjust it whenever I need and it is already belted into the seat. The annoying thing for us is tightening the dang straps!

I usually don't have a problem with head support in this car seat. I have it facing forward and it sits up with a little recline. Only a few times do I remember his head falling forward. He usually leans his head to side of the head support and goes to sleep. As they get older, they get better at laying their head to the side and not forward. You can always place an extra head support in the seat for peace of mind. It's a really good seat though.

It doesn't really provide any support for sitting. You can use a blanket/pillow to prop your daughter upright in the seat, as long as she has good head/neck control. I didn't really start using this with my daughter until she was closer to 5 months.

As JLo C. said, as ong as they can sit up and hold up their heads no problem. The seat is somewhat slippery as it is all wood and would be a long fall if they did wriggle out. Look for the attachments on craigslist and such. We are going to make our own cushion for it. Our 2 year old uses it but our one year old is still in the regular high chair.

Yes, the head support is great... My little guy is still so happy in it at 5 months! He came home from the NICU in it and we never had an issue with his head hanging.

No it does not recline, I don't think there are any seats that do, saftey would be compermised. It seems very comfortable my three yr old loves it, she lays her head in either side when she sleeps.

I think the recline was steep enough that our son didn't need it, even when he was a brand newborn baby. Now that he's 6 months, he definitely doesn't need any extra support. He always liked to turn his head to the side, but since the rocker doesn't hold them upright, it didn't make his head sag.

The back of the seat will recline to a almost a flat surface. A baby can be placed in it from birth on. Our Granddaughter laid comfortable in hers when she was just a month or so old.

It reclines pretty far back. I would say yes but it might not be good for a 3 month old since it doesn't have a lot of shock absorption.

There is hardly any padding on the seat or backrest. When our baby was little we added a padded head rest/support (like you would use in a carseat). As she got older and have used it without extra padding she has never complained about being uncomfortable...
