Installing a Child Seat for Newborn in X5

My first child will be delivered on Thursday. I have a 2023 X5 E45.

I installed the seat I have in the latches on the second row of the driver's side; I noticed there were no child seat latches available for the middle seat. I have two concerns:

1) Airbags. I want to know if this is a potential problem. I reached out to the BMW "genius" line via email and they said the airbags there could not be disabled. But I'm not even sure if they need to be disabled. Thoughts?

2) I do not know why they didn't put child seat latches for the middle seat. Considering moving the seat there and using the belt to harness it but I'm not sure if that's better - but I am told that's the safer location. Thoughts?
