[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ehhhh...my [b]5 year old who is 36inches and 30lbs [/b]who is still rearfacing...

I don't really care if its popular. You can't fix dead and my son is way safer rearfacing. [/quote]

You have a five-year-old child facing backwards?!?!?! How does he/she go on playdates in other people's cars?

I've got three children in different schools and I've never, ever heard of or seen a five-year-old facing backwards. That is definitely unusual. Most five-year-olds in NW DC are in booster seats.

This child would not be on the growth chart or would hit in the less than 3% down to negative percentages for his age.  He sounds like he is the size of an very tiny 3 year old or an average 2 year old

Mom, unless your child is not abnormally small to the point that the peds are frantically sending you to nutritionists and growth specialists, you need to reweigh and remeasure your son to make sure you have accurate growth statistics for him.  It sounds like you might be putting him at great risk by having him in a carseat way to small for him, and rear facing him to the point that it is dangerous because he is well beyond the seat limitations.[/quote]

I believe PP's numbers have a typo. [/quote]

They must, because I have a three year old who is 6 inches taller than her claimed 5 year old height.i [/quote]

Ummm I'm pretty sure I know how big my kid is. And me having a 5 year the size of a 3 year old Nd no more impossible then you having a 41 inch 3 yearr old.

And no my child's doctors aren't frantic about anything. He's small but height/weight portionate.[/quote]
