I moved K up to the 3rd slots on her marathon today. I think she's even with them but it's hard to tell. The actual slot is a touch below the slot in the cover. Also, do you think there's any hope we will be able to make it to 3yrs rf'ing?

Is K still 19 months like in your siggy? She has a long torso. Longer than my DD at almost 30 months. I think she's fine in the 3rd slot. Ummm, I doubt you'll get 17 more months (36 months) RF in there.

She just turned 20 months a few days ago....guess I need to update! Yes, she has a much longer torso than either of my boys had at that age. I really want to rf until 3, but I'm thinking I will have to have another seat for that!

I can see a True Fit in your future ;)

Dh isn't going to be happy! Oh well, he will let me do what's safest, but he will complain that we didn't get a tf to begin with.

I guess I'm lucky. DH doesn't ask about carseats. He just knows I'm taking care of it. If she gets a new seats, she must need it :whistle: But then again, I take care of the family's money too.
Sell the MA to buy a TF? Or TF w/ arb :)

What's the arb? I guess it's time to start looking at posts about the tf. Uggg, I love my marathon.

The new True Fit will have an anti-rebound bar but it has not been released yet. I think late March or early April is when it is suppose to be out.

She should be good for a while yet. From what little I've read the tf can't be tethered rf'ing so I would prefer one with the rebound bar.

I think the 3rd slots are fine.
Torsos start to slow down around this age as the legs play a little catch up. She's still got loads of time left RFing in this seat... I wouldn't be worried about finding another rfing seat just yet. :)

I completely agree.
I think she'll make it to 36mos. 1" torso is usually 2 to 3" overall growth and she has a good 4 or 5" left to grow in the torso. I don't see her growing over 8" in the next 16mos and having a full 1/2 of that torso.
I could be wrong, but I think it's reasonable to expect to get to 3yrs old in the MA. :thumbsup:

Great! I will keep watching. I'm hoping that her growth slows in her torso, it's getting hard to find outfits that fit and match because she needs a 4t shirt and 24mth pants!
