Maybe there's a local listserv you could list them on if that doesn't work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/inbetween-car-seat-and-toddler-seat#post-556797 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 13:06:26 +0000 plantains 556797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't have an infant seat at all, we just bought convertible from the start. We have the Combi Coccorro. I would try to return the nautilus, even at 1 you want keep him rear facing still as long as possible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/inbetween-car-seat-and-toddler-seat#post-556776 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 12:57:48 +0000 T.H.O.U. 556776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@babyjmama: I would try to return the seat or sell it. </p> <p>We have the Graco MyRide 65 and it stays rear facing up until 40 pounds. We are hoping to keep my LO rear facing until at least she's 2 or 3. </p> <p>Here are some posts about why rear facing is safer: </p> <p><a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/car-seat-safety-rear-facing-past-1-year20-pounds#post-83833" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/car-seat-safety-rear-facing-past-1-year20-pounds#post-83833</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/inbetween-car-seat-and-toddler-seat#post-556761 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 12:52:26 +0000 doodlepoodle 556761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How do I not know this stuff? :(I I got on consumer reports to check safety and everything...I just spaced it. It being a VERY important piece. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/inbetween-car-seat-and-toddler-seat#post-556755 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 12:49:20 +0000 kiddosc 556755@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's illegal to forward face before one, but the AAP recommends to keep them rear facing until at least 2. Can you maybe sell these seats on craigslist and buy a convertible seat. I thought this site had good overview of many different convertible seats. There are some really good options for budget conscious seats. <a href="http://www.carseatmoms.com/reviewpost/g21-convertible-carseat-reviews-and-ratings-page2.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.carseatmoms.com/reviewpost/g21-convertible-carseat-reviews-and-ratings-page2.html</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/inbetween-car-seat-and-toddler-seat#post-556741 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 12:43:18 +0000 doodlepoodle 556741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>J is 23 pounds and 28" long, we found the graco Nautilus and installed them like idiots. Well guess what? I didn't research enough and it can't be rear-facing and that's apparently illegal until he's 1. He just 8a months old so we have to find seats for the in-between stage. What seats do you girls recommend? We're on a budget (we asked for these for Xmas so we could save $$ and look where that got us). This mama is freaking out BC we've been driving him around all week! :( </p>
