What if my child with osteogenesis imperfecta has a cast?
If your child has a cast because the bones in her legs or spine are broken, she will need a car seat that has enough room to fit the cast. Your child might be able to use her own car seat but make sure to try it before you leave the hospital. If the cast prevents your child from sitting, you may need a special car bed or child restraint. Ask your childs nurse if there is a special needs car seat program in your area that can help find the right car seat or car bed for your child.
