Does anyone know - are these classed as booster seats or booster cushions?

I'm only asking out of interest, according to gov.uk only children over 22kg can use a booster cushion (age is irrelevant, it is the child's size which is the deciding factor).

Whereas booster seats are from 15-25kg.

My DS is 3.5yo, around 17kg and I wouldn't have him travelling in one of these boosters yet.

A booster seat has the back rest and the side impact protection around the head
A booster cushion is effectively just the seat part of the above
My DD has the cushion ... She was measured in Halfords.. But only recently moved from the seat to the cushion... She is 8..
Hth:)

Hi hope you look back on your b'day with lots of nice memories.

How can you be fat and forty with such a slim avatar

I did not post my b'day beforehand either It was at the end May but it was the big 60 I really don't the usual presents I just buy what I want during the year and dont want much anyway.

I got a weekend filled with family gatherings just immediate family and BF plus two large framed pictures of all 7 grandchildren :T

Oh thats fab Mrs Mac. I had a visit from friend who had not seen the new house couple of days before. She travelled 60 miles and we took her kids bowling and for a bite. I wasnt needing anything either. IM not a collector. But I love photos too

I'm going to go for it with the getting fitter. and being at college should keep me busier too.

Have to say my morning was made a lot better when I spotted this. I've been patiently waiting for it to open and it was worth it

Don't beat yourself up too much love. It is a great idea to eat and be healthier.

The main thing I'm trying to do is drink more water. Sounds small but I hardly drink any!

Many happy returns for your 40th xx

Thanks Emma, onwards and upwards ! like your new pic x

I'm sure you're not a mess, but if you feel overweight then dropping a few pounds will likely make all the difference to how you feel

Good luck with it :T
