We went for Karli's 15 month check up on Mon. The Dr. & I were going over all the normal stuff & when she asked about Karli's seat I told her she is still RF-ing.
(Background)
At Karli's 12 month check up, the Dr. looked at me like I had 2 heads when I told her I planned on keeping Karli RF. She questioned the safety of her legs, etc. I told her about this site but forgot it was ".org" instead of ".com", so I am thinking she never found it.
This time when I told her still RF-ing, she smiled and didn't give me such a hard time & said that was fine. But she then went on to tell me she asked all of the Dr.s at the practice & NONE of them have heard/nor recommend extender RF.
I told her that even the AAP (her fellow colleagues) recommends it & it is on the web page. So maybe she will do some more research and spread the word:shrug-shoulders:.
Don't get me wrong she is an AWESOME Dr., I just wish they were better informed on car seat safety since most parents aren't totally obsessed with it like I am .
By the way, I have been thinking alot about it & I would love to take the class and learn more & become certified. But there weren't any classes offered near me.
