I don't know what to do! I turned my dd back to RF about a week or 2 ago and it was all going well, but it's hard to put her back there because she has to be in the middle so we have to climb back there to put her in. She has also started to fuss and cry a lot and she kicks the seat back. It bothers my husband that she fusses so much, and it's harder for him to put her in because he's big and it's hard for him to climb back there. He is the one who gets her out and puts her in most of the time, because we have access to her seat on his side (her sister's seat is on the passenger side).
So in a way it would be a lot easier to turn her back to forward facing and she'd probably be happier, but I am nervous about that because of safety reasons. It scares me to death to think about her neck or spine being hurt in an accident. we just had her 2 year old check up today and she is only 23 lbs 13 oz and 33.5 inches! She is little!
I talked to her doctor about it and she sounded very excited that she was rearfacing and said it is safer, but said it would not be bad to have her forward facing either.
I don't know what to do! It would be a lot easier to get her in and out, and she'd enjoy the ride more, but it does bother me a little bit about the safetly thing. Isn't ERF the best for kids between 1 and 2, but the benefits start to drop at 2 years?
What would you do?
We had already planned to turn her back around when winter starts and it's wet and snowy, but maybe I should turn her now instead of waiting?
