When it comes to driving with my little Princess, I believe in safety first. Recent car seat laws advise parents to keep their children in rare facing seats until the age of two. Normally I’m all for following guidelines to a tee. But in this case, I have no choice but to break the rules.
Before I went into labor, my hubby installed the car seat and had it checked by the state police. We planned on having Princess rare facing until she reached 24 months, as the new law states. However, I’ve noticed that she’s getting way too big for her backwards chair. At her last check up, the doc told me she was in the 90th percentile in the height department. She’s about 33 1/2 inches and she weighs approximately 24 lbs. Her legs are getting so long, her knees are almost touching her chest.

The car seat we have allows up to 65 pounds. That means under these rules, Princess will be in elementary school before we can even turn her seat around! I’ve debated this issue for quite some time. I do understand that rear facing offers the best protection possible. But, I also believe comfort is just as important.

Do you believe in keeping your kiddo rear facing until 2 years old?
