I wish people would realize that if your baby/tot is crying RFing it is most likely they arent comfortable in that carseat you purchased & it is most likely need a new seat so please stop thinking its because "they cant see" and you need to turn them FFing. Dallas had a convertible seat that he wasnt confortable in, so we went to the store and got the Graco MyRide 65, because of all the awesome reviews it had, it RF's till 40 pounds, and FF's till 65 pounds. We installed it right away, and Im proud to say he is completely comfortable in his new carseat. Also safety shouldn't have a budget, so when your out looking at carseats just because you see a "cheaper" seat it doesnt mean it is actually the safest or best bang for your buck!
"The AAP recommends that all infants should ride rear-facing starting with their first ride home from the hospital. All infants and toddlers should ride in a Rear-Facing Car Safety Seat until they are 2 years of age or until they reach the highest weight or height allowed by their car safety seat’s manufacturer."
Please click and read through the links I provided below to keep your baby/tot safe while in their carseats.
Car Safety Seats: Information for Families for 2011
Keep your 1 to 3 year old children in a REAR-FACING car seat for as long as possible.
