How do you grocery shop with a baby in a car seat?
If you need to take the car seat into the store, put it in the cart’s large basket, taking care to keep items like raw meat away from your baby since they can harbor illness-inducing germs. (Try sticking them under the cart instead.) But if you can avoid putting the car seat in the shopping cart, that’s even better.
