carseat question

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months
Hello I'm crashing from the 3-6 month board. My son is a very large baby. 25" and 20 lbs. He's almost out grown his infant carseat rated for 29" and 22 lbs. I am looking for suggestions on convertible carseats for larger kids that won't break the bank so I don't go threw this again in 2 years when he out grows the next one that was supposed to last him for much longer

    My LO is also a big boy. We had to switch from the infant carseat around six months. We went with a Graco convertible. We love it. Not too expensive and my LO fits into it very well.

    I recommend the my ride (tall shell, good RFing weight limit) or if your budget will allow a foonf.  They are very expensive but have a tall shell and a RFing weight limit of 50 lbs!

    The Diono Radian or the Graco MySize (& clones) would also be good to look into.

    I want to get my daughter the Evenflo Kristy purple carseat.  Evenflo is a good brand, and they have cheaper prices on some of their carseats.

    My son who is almost 3 years old just got this booster seat.  The problem with my son is like he is forward facing and he is kicking the back of the seat in his convertible car seat (we have Britax and Evenflo).  So I decided it was time to i

    We have the Evenflo triumph and love it! DD1 was in it until DD2 got too big for her carrier a couple months ago and we made it hers and got a new front facing for DD2. I believe it goes to 65 lbs. and can rear face for a long time too (I think 40 lbs.).
