Finally!" Like two weeks after we turned her around we started reading all of this kinda stuff and thinking, "Um, oops. Maybe we should've left her longer." We kept her forward facing from there on though, but it makes me wonder what we'll do with our second baby, who's still at least 7 months from going forward facing, but I go back and forth if we turn her around at 20 lbs/1 year, or if we wait as long as possible. Sorry, long story short, I feel your pain! :-) For now though our two and half year old shot up 8 lbs in 4 months and is nearing 30 lbs now, so it's kind of a moot point!Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03781058037409966491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-274237968120146104.post-34538958552266068872008-10-19T21:18:00.000-04:002008-10-19T21:18:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-274237968120146104.post-39389447126417370782008-10-18T21:38:00.000-04:002008-10-18T21:38:00.000-04:00Thanks Chris!

However we do what we can that is feasible and will provide the most safety for ourselves and our children. <BR/><BR/>The reason that babies are rear facing is because they have little to no head control musculature to stabilize with. Also their heads are over large, proportionally thus the effects of whiplash are more likely to cause damage.<BR/><BR/>I was doing some research on a similar topic for my patients when I found something interesting. Here in Utah it is law that children remain in a booster seat until they are 57 inches tall, and that is the recommendation from all the national safety agencies. When I called to get the study about the particular height they didn't have one. Why 57 inches? Who knows. It's completely arbitrary as far as I can tell. <BR/> <BR/>What they're saying is that you should keep them in as long as you can. So the car seat makers make more money :) I mean, to keep your kids safe. <BR/><BR/>So don't be over anxious to turn your kids around, but don't be over protective either. Life has risk. Enjoy life, moderation in all things.cmnacnudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06702930517751450346noreply@blogger.com
