My (almost) 6 month old has reached the length capacity of her Graco infant car seat although she is still under the weight capacity (she's 27" and almost 18lbs). I need to get her a new seat but am not sure whether I should get another infant seat with a higher weight/length capacity (I am looking at the Graco Snug Ride 35 or the Britax Chaperone 30, although I don't think I can get the Britax one in Canada) or get a convertible seat.
What I like about the infant seat over the convertible is that I can still use it with the stroller, meaning it is much easier to get her in and out of the car if she's sleeping. She also doesn't seem quite ready to sit in a stroller without the infant seat. It also means I don't have to bundle her up every time we want to go out (since a blanket over the seat is sufficient). But it is pointless to purchase a new infant seat at this point? Will she outgrow it before she's a year old? Are the higher capacity infant seats preferable to the convertible seat in this situation?
Any thoughts are welcome!
Thanks.
