Extended RF... how old?

[JARKMom]

Curious how old everyone's little ones are who are still rear facing?

Rylan turned 2 on 4/17 and is RF. He will probably be for another yr to 2 yrs :) works out for me that's hes a pretty small guy!

We have the Graco Myride65, he loves this seat, its seems so comfortable (and it helps that its cute lol)

awesome that is so good that hes still happy that way! i eneded up moving my boys at 14 months cuz they hated it. (they are Really tall)

[JARKMom]

He's tall, but he just crosses his legs now or bends them up and so far it hasnt seemed to bother him

I switched ethan at like 13 mths. Jess i didnt know you still had him rfing. When did you switch the girls?

Double post

Oh definitely he's RF still! I am a car seat nazi, but have learned to keep my mouth shut when it comes to others lol. My girls were both turned around at 11-12 months, back then I didnt know the importance of RF sadly :( Im so glad I do now!

[JARKMom]

There is absoloutly NO way I will turn Rylan around before he is 40 lbs or too long for the seat, Im assuming the length will happen before the weight though considering he's now 2 and only 22 lbs

[EthanNLillysmama]

I tried to keep him rfing but didnt know much about it but wish i would have now but maybe with lilly ill try longer.

[JARKMom]

Cassie you can always turn him back around, I had Rylan facing forward for about 2 months before I learned the pros of keeping him RF. The first few days he was pretty upset to be backwards again but he got used to it fast.

I am proud of you too =) Not that that matters... lol I am a car seat Natzi on certain things... lol like the boys are all with the exception of jared still in 5 pt harnesses. I switched Brian for MANY reasons ... it's safer for him to be forward facing at this time than not

[JARKMom]

Avery is in a harness, Jayden isn't anymore, but she is almost 7

[4BlueBlessings]

yeah the height thing is BIG ... lol Jared is WAY past the height for the harness.

I kept Natalie RF until she was almost 3 and outgrew her seat, then they came out with the new seats that can RF longer! With my oldest she was turned around at a year bc I had no idea. She just got out of a backless booster since she finally hit the weight limit in our state.

Logan is still RF at 27 months. He will probably turn this summer. When I weighed him he weighed 31 lbs. and his seat limit is 35 lbs.

Qwill Had to be turned at 18 months because he couldnt fit anymore since he is tall
