Quoting calvinsmommy18:
Is that the one that rf til 35lbs and ff til 40???? I think that's the one I have for my dd but we may have to get her a new one if I plan to rf her after 2 yrs.
Quoting MommySarah986:
He is in a safety 1st complete air I think that's what it's called.
Quoting Baby_Avas_Momma:
What seat is he in right now? Rearfacing is much much safer and there are plenty of carseat that he would fit in. :)
Quoting sissy852:i am going ff when he turns a year in 10 days. He is also a big boy he is 27 pounds and tall for his age.
His height nor his weight provide him aditional protection from injuries such as internal decapitation.
Rear facing makes him literally 500% safer. Car accidents are the number one killer of children - why not make him as safe as possible when doing the most dangerous thing he does? ;)
Quoting MommySarah986:
No, I believe the one I have ff till 60lbs at least. I got this one because it ff for awhile. I have to look at it again

The new recommendation of the AAP is 2 years minimum.
My older kids RFed to varying degrees of age 4. My twins will likely RF even longer than that, with the new seats coming out.
Bottom line: RFing is 500% safer. What more is there to say?

I would definitely recommend keeping him rear facing to the 40 lb limit of his current seat. Regardless of size, their little spines are still so fragile at that age. My son is still rear facing in our main vehicle at 4y8m.

Get a good convertible and rear face until the weight limit or 2 years old. My 18 month old was 25lbs at 1 and 28lbs at 18 months. Even our cheap evenflo titan goes to 30lbs. Your childs safety is never worth the risk no matter how small.
We also have a britax marathon and an alpha and omega. All have been great seats.
How long does the belly take to go away?
