Place the baby in the back in the middle. Just in case someone hits your car from the left or right side of your car.
If you can fit your toddler in the center forward facing (FF) and the infant seat outboard rearfacing (RF), then that would be fantastic. Each step up in carseats (RF to FF, FF harnessed to booster, booster to seatbelt only) is a step DOWN in safety. Your newborn will be very protected simply by RF.
If you can’t fit them next to each other or your toddler bugs the infant, then both seats outboard is fine too!
