Adding to the list of people who turned an older kid back rf'ing. My dd was ff'ing from 18mos to 30mos. When I turned her back rf'ing, she was hesitant her first ride - but she was also 2.5yrs old and doesn't like change. We made it a short trip to mcdonald's and she very quickly forgot.
She never complained or showed any nervousness about it after that. She rf'ed until 34mos when she hit the weight limit, and even though that was a year ago, she still sometimes calls ff'ing "riding backwards." I asked her the other day if she'd like to ride the same way as her little brother if we had a different seat and she gave a very enthusiastic yes. Unfortunately we don't have any seats with limits above 30lbs in Canada, otherwise she'd still fit for a short while longer. I had asked her mostly out of curiousity since she's very verbal and still remembers rf'ing. :thumbsup:
I took my friend and her almost 2yr old to the park once and her dd still fit in ds's SS1. She was initially unsure, but her mom was positive about it and everything went just fine. (Petite girl, my ds had a bit less growing room in the SS1 at 11mos then the almost 2yr old did.
)
I hope today went smoothly for you all.
