headhugger
Explanation:
I have been working a lot in this field recently and have found that they sell ***headhuggers*** for small infants so that they can be snug in the carseat or carrycots even if they are really too small for them. As they grow, these are removed and the carseat fits just fine. This way one need purchase only one item.

head pad


Explanation:
Alcuni esempi:
"When using a child safety seat with a newborn, you can save some money by forgoing the purchase of an aftermarket head pad that restricts movement of the baby's head. As a substitute, use a bundled up towel, and lay it behind the head"
