We switched around 8 mths, but P could've easily stayed in her seat until 17mths. The main length that is important is where the head is in relation to the top of the shell, not leg length hanging over the bottom.

We plan on getting P either a Radian or Foonf to last until the recommended 4 y/o rf minimum age. In the other car seat thread there was also mention of the Graco MySize for his high rf limit. There are alot of great seats with a 40" rf limit that will work for most kids too! Britax is not a highly recommended Convertible b/c it is generally outgrown rf around 2.5 or when the child is in a 3T shirt causing the need to buy ANOTHER convertible to make it to the recommended age. Most seats are outgrown by height long before their weight limits are met so that is the number to look at!

I suggest joining the Car Seats for the Little fb group to get help from the techs there on what seat to buy! They'll give their best recommendation based on your lo age/stats and your car!

We are planning on switching soon, she's 5.5 months, 17 lbs and 28 inches. The seat goes to 30 but it's getting so awkward to lug her around in it!

My son is a year old am 30 inches but we still haven't done this. I keep bringing it up and my husband agrees but we need to actually order the damned thing!

We switched around 8 months - we pushed it as long as we could because we wanted to get through the winter with the carseat cover rather than dealing with a coat.

We made the switch around 9-10 months. Our kids just seemed uncomfortable in their buckets. We got Radians for both cars and love them. Driving with the kids got immediately easier bc they were happier!
