Preggie psa for the day. This photo is shared with permission. Many moms, including myself with my first, don't know the importance of extended rear facing. The AAP recommends rear facing until at least two, or preferably until your child maxes out the rear facing limits of his or her seat.
Circled in this picture is the car seat that contained an 18 month old. She got out without a scratch. Both front passengers were severely injured. I implore all of you to make sure you look up the benefits of rear facing and make sure your seats are installed correctly and being used correctly each time we buckle them in. Auto accidents are the number one killer of children under 12, and I know we all want to keep our children as safe as possible.

Thank you for sharing!! And I couldnt agree with you more!!! Rear facing is the way to go.

Show us your car seat!! Here is Alaura current seat, it's the Safety first guide 65 sport. It's here until i can afford a better one lol! Rear face, rear face, rear face!!! it's is proven that children forward facing under the age of one are 70% more likely to snap their spine or neck in a Collison due to bones not being developed well. Rear facing may look uncomfortable but remember children are flexible and it's not miserable for them. Broken legs and living children and safer then snapped nec...
So, in IL you now have to leave your child rear facing until two years of age, my question is do any of you mommies know a good car seat that starts as rear facing but can transition to front facing? I am going to need to get a new car seat before long but I was hoping to be able to turn her front facing at a year old and now that that is out of the question, I have to figure something out.
How old were your babies when you swapped them from a infant seat to a rear facing convertible car seat?
