What is everyone currently doing in the world of car seats? My LO is 16 months and average height and we are rear facing in a Graco convertible car seat.
shes not a huge fan which would be tolerable, but she is too tall to rear face. Her legs are "frogging" and she can't stretch out so anything longer than 5 minutes she's miserable. But I know new research says we should wait until they're 2. No clue how to do this with her legs.
any advice?
Re: Car seats
Here's a good graphic. Kids are super flexible.
Something else to think about, to go along with the graphic from @stephanienjer, think of how your LO sits when they are playing on the floor. Are they sitting with their legs straight out? Many kids sit with their legs frogged or criss-crossed. If they are comfortable sitting this way out of the car seat, they should be fine in the car seat.
