We have a Graco infant car seat that is rated to 20lb/26".
Our daughter is 6 months and 14.5 lbs (25 percentile) and 26.75" long (75% percentile).
When going by the 1" rule, there is probably about 2.5" between her head and the top of the car seat.
By Canadian laws, should I be switching her now since the car seat is only rated to 26", or can I wait until 1) her head is within 1" of the car seat or 2) she weighs 20lbs? It would be nice to have her in the infant car seat a little longer (because it's so cold out and to wait and see if the Britax car seats get rated to 35lbs....).
Thanks!
