Quinn was the same way in her car seat. She just despised it and nothing we did made her less miserable in her car seat...toys, attention, more a/c, less a/c, music, no music....so we actually were given a really nice car seat from a friend of ours. It's not the prettiest car seat, it's it doesn't have the cute decorations or fabric that I like, but it looks brand new and that child really seems to like it. I have since put her in her old car seat and she just fusses. She just doesn't like her old car seat, the one that's actually cuter

So, the only thing that worked for us was to get her into a new car seat. The new car seat sits up a little more and it's actually a safer carseat, she's strapped in better and it's more confining, but for some reason she likes it much more and only fusses if she's hungry. She's also a very active little one and isn't fond of being confined anywhere. Weird that changing her car seats worked so well.

As far as tips, the only thing I can suggest (since I'm still learning myself) is putting a cloth diaper, the plain pre-folded white ones that you buy in a pack, on her Boppy as I nurse her....I put it under her on the side she happens to be nursing on. Not only can I wipe her face after words without getting any milk on the Boppy, but it also reminds me which side I last nursed her on so I can nurse her on the opposite side next time I feed her. I only have one cover for my Boppy, so it's kind of a pain when I need to wash my only cover, so it saves on having to always change the cover on my Boppy.
