There's now a child seat that can be used rear-facing to 40 pounds in the USA, so hopefully this trend will continue!CPSDarrenhttp://www.carseatblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2527805485999838499.post-65939043539038114862009-06-05T05:55:00.894-07:002009-06-05T05:55:00.894-07:00We have the same seat and love it!

He is about 22lbs now, and I agree with you it's much easier for me to have him turned around. We will see.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09498773675691413637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2527805485999838499.post-52898131676028856912009-06-04T13:49:55.301-07:002009-06-04T13:49:55.301-07:00Molly,

I admit that we did turn our older boys around shortly after they turned 1yo, but I have been determined not to do it that early with Owen. <br /><br />When he had his 1year check up, I was surprised that after the nurse weighed him, she said "Oh, now you can turn your car seat around!!" It's shocking to me that the staff at the pediatrician's office would be so quick to encourage turning him around.Mindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12524347632845469825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2527805485999838499.post-12124558251863687622009-06-04T09:42:19.715-07:002009-06-04T09:42:19.715-07:00We also kept our little guy rear facing until his ...We also kept our little guy rear facing until his legs were too long, just a month ago at about 15 months.<br /><br />By the way...you won a contest on my blog.

I felt a lot safer driving with him that way.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08394462808788443971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2527805485999838499.post-31332529185910922752009-06-03T20:35:02.375-07:002009-06-03T20:35:02.375-07:00I kept Levi rear facing until about 16 months.

At 18 months he's the size of some 3 year olds!<br />Extended rear facing is certainly a topic that doesn't get as much coverage as it should. Thanks for bringing it up.Madelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02269938426943887438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2527805485999838499.post-41209310099129934752009-06-03T13:48:52.692-07:002009-06-03T13:48:52.692-07:002 yrs old is the current recommendation from the A...2 yrs old is the current recommendation from the AAP, but since it came out just this spring the word is still spreading.

Great post! And just FYI, at my daughter's 12-month check up a couple of weeks ago, the pediatrician said AAP is considering raising the age for kids to stay rear-facing to 2 year old. It's not official, but sounds like a good idea to me. Especially since I have an extra-little one, too.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04501879302725400072noreply@blogger.com
