OK so my ds had a growth spurt, a big one! He's 2.5y/o 40" tall w/ 15" torso but only 30-32lbs. He has about 4" above his head in his XT...but if he keeps growing like this do you think he'll make it to 3y/o rf? My goal was 4y/o with him...but I'm not sure if thats going to be possible. I'm wondering if he'll have some more growing room in the Complete Air? Please excuse my messy car!

For that seat, If he has 4" left, I'd probably give him another 1.5 to 2" of torso growth before FF him. Maybe a year? Could be more, though... the average I've heard around here is like 1" per year of torso growth once they hit toddlerhood.

He still looks great in it, though :thumbsup:

kids majorly slow down in the torso growth department around that age and start sprouting legs. I'd say you have about 1.5 to 2 years height wise.

Oh good, that makes me feel better. I'm hoping he'll stop growing so fast! His sister who is almost 4y/o is so tiny, she needs to start growing!

Time for his legs to grow. Leah's gotten lots taller since that age, but her torso's barely budged, I just have to keep buying longer pants :D
