I needed to find a good seat that could still rear face and let me put him in and take him out easily. Our infant carrier could actually accommodate the new weight and time frame differences but I was getting really frustrated with it. When it comes to my baby I always want what’s safest so we’re taking the new recommendations and we’re going to continue rear facing Sawyer until his 2nd birthday or maybe even longer if he’s still comfortable in his seat. However, in the last few years there have been new studies out there to show that extended rear facing is actually safer. When my first two babies approached their first birthday’s that also meant it was time in the past for us to lose the infant carrier because we were now able to turn our babies around so they could forward face in their car seats.
