I'm confused about the regulations for car seats here in VA. I thought they had to be rear facing until the child is 2 years old. All I'm finding is that they need to be rear facing until age 1 and weigh at least 20 lbs.
I was researching because my parents have a car seat for Em that says it's suitable for rear facing until the child is 22 lbs. Em weighs more than that. If they want to keep her rear facing, does that mean she needs a new car seat?
If she can be forward facing, that is fine, and actually might be better, since she gets car sick. I just want to make sure we're not breaking the law. Haven't we said on here that they are supposed to be rear facing until 2????? What gives?

Thanks for explaining...I will have to read the AAP site and figure out what to do.
Oh, I think it's the Evenflo tribute dlx.
