Hello,
My boy is 9.5 months old but is huge : a little over 25 pounds, a litle over 75 cm.
I already had a stage-1-only car seat.
But we already have a 2nd baby coming. In 3 months. So when 2nd baby will come, our first will only be 12.5 months old.
I bough a Evenflo Symphony LX seat. My goal is to sit my older one in the Evenflo Symphony LX seat.
Here's the problem though : I have a rather small car. Toyota Matrix. We are.... VERY tight to fit 2 "rear facing" seats. I was hoping to use a rear facing seat for our new born(behind passenger seat) and stick our older one in a front-facing Symphony LX, behind the driver's seat, as soon as the 2nd baby comes.
Our older is ALREADY meeting the weight and height requirements... but is not 2 years old as recommended.
At birth of our second one, our first baby will be well above weight/height requirement, but obviously still won't be 2 years old.
.... would I be putting my son in danger ? Will I really need to drive with my knees touching my steering wheel ?
Thanks
