"My hospital, like many others, is soon to begin doing car seat challenges. I
believe they are talking about 1 hour, but some hospitals do it for up to 2
hours. If the preemie graduate doesn't pass, i.e. no desats, etc, he doesn't go
home. This is essential when car seats are required by law and some babies
ride several hours from our hospital to their homes in remote parts of my state."

Phyllis, we have an agency that promotes car safety in our state and a
representative brought by a car safety bed last month.  Can't the parents of the
babies who do have oxygen desaturation use one of these that has the baby flat?
