Right around 18 months for both DC, but that was when the recommendations were still at 12 months RF.

When did you forward face the carseat?

Re: When did you forward face the carseat?
Your child should remain rear-facing until at least 2 years old. The rear-facing seat lends better support to the head, neck and spine if you're in an accident. DS is 15 months and very tall, but still fits comfortably in the rear-facing seat. I don't plan on turning him around any time soon.

DS is in the 95th percentile for height and weight and, at 18 months, is still RF. I'm going to keep him that way for as long as I possibly can.

Re: When did you forward face the carseat?
She's 17 months and we will wait till the reccomendation of 2 yrs old. She is doing fine with rear facing so I see no need to switch right now

When did you forward face the carseat?
The twins were 2.5 when we forward faced them and I only did it because we were driving to NC with three kids and felt the twins would do better for the long trip. DS is 20 months and still rear facing. We are talking about forward facing him at 22 months because we are headed back down to NC but knowing me I will freak out and keep him rear facing for as long as possible.

We will at 2 years old or when she reaches the max for height/weight for rear facing. Whichever comes first.

DD was turning 3 January 1st I changed her in October only because I wasn't able to keep her rear facing since DC2 was coming and she wouldn't fit rear facing behind the driver seat (DH wouldn't have been able to drive the car with the seat rear facing.

Re: When did you forward face the carseat?
We turned my oldest when he was 2 (recommendation at the time).
My younger two turned 2 a few months ago and will likely RF until they reach the limits of their seats.

Re: When did you forward face the carseat?
With DD, 14 months. But that was when the recommendation for RF was only a year.
DS is 13.5 months old and he's of course, RF. He's also tiny (25th percentile height and weight) so I anticipate him staying RF for quite some time.

DS turned two in March and is still RF. He is coming close to the height limit on his seat though so I will likely have to FF by 2 1/2.
