    We did at 21 months to accommodate new baby. DS couldn't fit behind my DH's seat rear facing.

    She's at 21 months (yikes first time I've said that) and we are still RF. I'm hoping to get to two, but she's starting to mess with the chest clip, trying to undo it/unbuckle, so we might have to switch her so we can see her better to hopefully prevent that from that happening.

    21 months and still RF, hoping to make it to 2. She has no issues RF so far so hopefully she'll keep that up

    DS is 17m and I've been thinking about it. DS is SO big that it's becoming really hard to get him in and out without bumping his head or pulling a muscle lol. We'll see how long we make it, but I am really hoping to make it to 2.

    19.5 months and still RFing, but will probably switch to FF facing sooner than 2 years. It's getting so hard to get her in lately.
