It depends on the width of the backseat. If you have a car with sufficient width (like Mini-Vans or Vans) so no problem, but I don't think a Ford Focus would fulfill this requirement. I have to check it out.Yeah, I'm wondering as well.Even if the car is approved and equiped for 3 in a row? What would the basis for that law be?The problem here is that you can't put them all in one row because it's legally not allowed.
As far as I know (my 3 daughters at the moment share two cars of their own, with the youngest being 13 at height 159 cm, so we've been kinda out of the circuit for a while now), the laws in Germany says that you need a special seater for kids under 150 cm and younger than 12 or so. No word on type of car, other than the regulation that if the car has backseats, as many kids as possible go there (so it is possible to take kids in pickups or trucks or sports cars, or even Smarts )

Not quite. Interestingly the chances of a boy (or a girl) are not 50/50. The younger the mother the higher is the probability that the child is boy, the older the mother gets the likelier it gets that it will be a girl. It doesn't differ much from 50/50 but there is a slight difference.Since the probability for a girl is about 1 in 2 in each case, the probability to have 7 girls in a row, by pure random, is 1 in 2^7 = 1 in 128.
ONLY ON AD.COM/ADINFO would someone correct another's probability calculations on having a certain sex baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.....and while we're at it, what are those misconceptions about 777 fuel systems and fuel exhaustion????
And congrats to you and the family Gabe!

Re: #3
Many best wishes on your new arrival.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming ~ WOW, what a ride~!!!

Re: #3
Any details? Gender, weight, length, the usual stuff.Landed today.#3 is on its way. ETA: October 2008.
My how time fly's!
Congratulations! I hope the "Roll Out" was uneventful.
The "Power On" checks can be expected to generate many audible alarms. Until further notice the re-fuel and Lav system will require close monitoring.
If the roll out was normal the functional checks should take about a year. Let us know when the taxi checks start!

CONGRATULATIONSBoy
You kidding???3.711Kg (you do the conversion to lb).
52cm (you do the conversion to feet, inches or whatever you use to measure a baby).
3.711 kg / baby * 1 lb/.454 kg = 8.174 (and using unit cancellation is lb/baby)
52 cm / baby * 1 in/2.54 cm = 20.5 (using appropriate unit cancellation is in/baby)

Re: #3
Where?The problem here is that you can't put them all in one row because it's legally not allowed.You guys aren't trying hard enough. Our 1600cc Ford Laser (similar to a Ford Focus) has managed to fit my 3 daughters, now 7,5,3 and their respective seats in since the birth of #3. Currently thats two boosters and 1 car seat. Its better than when it was 2 car seats and 1 booster, getting access to the seatbelts was problematic at times.
Her in Spain (for all I know also EU) you can take out the back seats and have child seats installed (the law doesnt say anything about original seats)? That would make three in a row?
I have no porbs to concede I am really not up to date anymore (mine are 27, 25 and 18), but thats what ppl here in the village do (a friend of mine just had twins half year ago on top of the two before, and so far police havent complained if he carries them that way in his Renault minivan.

Re: #3
Not quite following the logic. What irony? I suppose this could be funny if it made any logical sense, which it doesn't.Walking around Belgrano today, I stepped in about 3 piles of crap.
Have you just been over-zealous in finding an opportunity to use that spiffy new emoticon?
