My 3.25 yo is getting close to outgrowing her RA55 by height Rfing. I'm having trouble with the idea of turning her FF, but I don't think it makes sense to buy her a new seat to RF for just that little bit longer -- Plus the options would be very limited because I just weighed her at 37 pounds (with light clothes + shoes, what she is wearing now in her seat in mild weather), she's 40+ inches, and we have a tiny back seat/radian unfriendly car (forester) and we NEED that front seat leg room. It's getting harder to get her into her seat now and that worries me about misuse because getting her strapped in perfectly when she's squished is harder, something that would be easier with a more spacious seat, but then it probably wouldn't fit in our car.
I have been wondering if I should consider looking for another seat to try to get her to 4, but my options are very limited and at best I'd only get 3 pounds and/or 1 inch RF out of it (and we are not rolling in money). I know it is not practical or affordable and I should feel good about ERFing such a big kid this long, yet I feel bad about not ERFing longer. WWYD?
THANKS!
