My friend's baby (11 months old right now) will most likely be getting a helmet within the next couple months. She has several medical problems (suffered a stroke in-utero in the 3rd trimester which wasn't found out til she started crawling, blood clots in her brain) and she is also a tiny girl. Not sure how much she weighs but probably no more then 15-18 lbs. She is in an infant seat right now, but I wanted to get suggestions for when she can go into a convertible seat, if there are better seat suggestions for this type of situation. The mom is unemployed, so she doesn't have much to spend on a seat. I was thinking of trying to help a little (maybe up to $50, possibly more if need be) to keep her safe.
I'm well aware of the rf-to-age-2-or-longer and I'm sure the mom will see this will be safer for her daughter. Anyone know if the EFTA would be a good seat? I have it for my dd and I think the infinite adjust would be a good option.
Another question....can the infant seats be used past 1 year? I know most babies outgrow by height, but I'm not sure if that will be the case with this baby (unless the helmet puts her at or above the top of the shell).
Thanks in advance for any help and info.
