but i dont really have a "need" for it. i just love it?
i'd like to RF my DD past 35lbs and 3 yo.

my idea of buying one now is that I can use it in my car and switch the MA to husbands car so my DD can still RF in his car for 3 more pounds.
she currently rides in a Nautilus in his car which is like twice a month.

DD has a 12.5 inch torso which gives her 4+ inches of head room in the MR
she gained 10lbs and grew 6" from age 1-2, gained 3lbs and grew 2" from age 2-3.
trying to figure out her growth rate....

my husband understands the benefits of RF but hes not sold on buying another seat.

should i just do it? :cool:

My almost 3 year old with a 14 inch torso has about 4-5 inches above his head, so at least 3 if not 4 inches to grow! I also LOVE my MR! So I say if you want one & can afford it to go for it.

BTW: After my DH seen the seat he caved & let me have it! He HATED the TF he had in his car, so he was willing to let me buy a new seat for my car so he could have a different seat for his car! LOL!

I have a monster of a child and he fits this seat RFing like a dream.
When installed, he's got roughly 4 inches above his head to the top of the seat. Only with his last growth spurt has he had to curl his legs at all. He also JUST hit 35-36 pounds, so he should be able to RF until his 3rd birthday (in April) at least in this seat.

I would go for it. The worst thing you will want to do is return it!
(Or...you could sell it to me.)

ive played with this seat so much at the stores that i feel like i already own it LOL

i want the bartlett pattern from target because i have grey interior and the blue piping looks pretty neutral actually.

i think my daughter would fit another 2-3 years RF in this seat.


miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight have to go "shopping" today and bring it up to the husband one more time ;)

oh and i forgot to add that i'd love to have a seat with a cup holder in my car!
