So glad my kid is 18! Flipped him right at 1. SO MUCH BETTER!!![/quote]

In what way exactly? My kid is 3 and rear facing and I literally don’t think about it until I see these threads. She’s happy. I’m happy. I don’t see what we’ll possibly gain when we turn her (which may be awhile since she’s 28 lbs and our seat rear faces until 40lbs.)[/quote]

We do extended rear facing too so obviously I think RF for as long as possible is best and most kids are perfectly fine/happy with it. For some kids, though, FF reduces motion sickness and they can see more of their surroundings/out the window when they’re FF. Otherwise, I don’t think there’s much difference really. I thought my sons legs were getting cramped RF at almost 4 but he never complained once and when we did finally flip him, he actually didn’t like FF at first because he said his legs were just hanging there and he had no where to put them. So (for us at least) there really wasn’t any reason to flip them til they reached the height/weight limits. They were totally fine with RF.[/quote]
