Question Titan extra padding for older babies?

Okay now that I have given up on and am selling the Como I'm stuck with my trusty Titan. I was playing around with it today and I was wondering if anyone has used the body and head pillow beyond the newborn stage? I can't try DS to see how it would be (nap time). I was just curious if anyone has done this. I guess it would depend on the child. I'm worried the head pillow might cause his head to flop forward but I have the raceway with the better pillow (not round, kinda has sides) so maybe that would help with the "to the side" head slump he gets when sleeping. Oh, and I read the manual ENTIRELY again and it says nothing about the padding only for certain ages or weights.

I have a Titan in raceway for my 10 month old. We use the bottom pillow for her because she fits better in the seat with it. She hates the head pillow so we don't use it but if she liked it we would use it. She sleeps just fine in it without the pillow. There's a pic of her in my siggy.

I checked my manual and it doesn't say anything about weight or age limits so if it works for your child then it would be fine.

We dont use ours, the head pillow is unecesary,and the bottom padding just annoys me, and since our titan is our "spare" it gets moved around a lot, and having something in it that can just fall out while transporting it isn't helpful. Plus, for older kids, you are generally trying to eek out every bit of height possible out of the insanely short slots, so removing it only makes sense. For kids our age/size, there is certainly no harm is using it, or not using it.

Well, tried him out in it with padding. Yeah, not going to work. Oh well I was just trying something new and different because I wanna play with new seats and I can't do that. Thanks for the advice.
