My daughter will be 4 yrs old in February. She is approaching the limits of her 2010 SK Radian for RF, closer by height than weight but I haven't actually weighed her in her winter gear (and honestly have no plans to).
Selina has expressed an interest in FF, in the past and mostly because her gramma (my MIL) suggested that "big girls face forward". A serious, honest discussion with Selina about how RF is safer for her convinced her, and MIL was told it is *our* decision and she is not to talk to S about it.
Since she is really close to the limits (Canadian limits on her seat are 44" & 45#) - 42.25" tall & 38# in light pjs - I'm considering turning her FF soon, like this week. I asked her today & she said she likes facing the way she is. I'm also struggling a bit with it... she's still my baby & I want to protect her!
Suggestions? For both talking to her about it (whether that's now or when it actually *has* to be done) and how to make me feel awesome about it?
Thanks in advance,
Melissa
