My DD is nearing her 2nd birthday in a few weeks. She currently stands at 33.5lbs, 35" tall (mostly torso) at her last apt back in March.
I'd like to hear some thoughts from others on when you decide its time to FF vs. purchasing another seat to keep her RF.
When my 4 year old son reached 2, there really weren't other options worth purchasing beyond what we already owned so I didn't 2nd guess turning him on his 2nd birthday. He was the same weight. Actually just shy of 33lbs because my seats then only RF to 33lbs.
I currently own both a BLVD and Radian 65 for her with 35lb RF max capacity. I have a love/hate relationship with the Radian. The idea of purchasing another doesn't not excite me, but I'd consider it. I moved her into the Radian exclusively because the BLVD was way too cramped for her at this point and very difficult to get her in/out.
What seats currently have 40lb RF limits? Are we expecting any future releases in the next 6mos?
The other thing to consider is how much time would I be able to keep her RFacing due to height constraints. Here's a picture of her taken last week. Obviously I need to take another look and measure, but I'm thinking maybe a year before she's within an inch of the top of the shell. I'm not sure I want to spend the money on another seat if that's all the extra life I'm getting out of it.
I know I'm not going to decide today, but I'm looking for info to help me ponder.
