The source I have addresses safety screening for premature and at-risk babies before hospital discharge—not fit or size progression over time.\n\nWhat I can tell you is that car seat fit matters for safety, and the best way to check is a hands-on assessment. Most car seat manufacturers provide guidelines on their websites or in the manual about weight and height limits, and many communities offer free car seat inspections through local fire departments or child safety organizations. A certified technician can confirm whether your baby has outgrown the current seat and help you find the right next one if needed.\n\nIf your baby was premature or at-risk and had a car seat safety screening before discharge, that was checking their ability to breathe safely in the seat itself—a separate question from whether they still physically fit. Trust your instinct if something feels off, and a quick inspection will give you the certainty you need.","sources":"[]","thread_json":null,"topic":"car-seat-safety","view_count":0,"created_at":"2026-10-11T00:00:29.835Z"}
