DS is 9 months and we're starting to think about getting the next stage car seat.
I was wondering what other people's DCs make of the rear facing ones... Our boy doesn't seem to like not being able to see us at the moment which means I have to ride in the back with him most of the time - so i have been kmind of looking forward to him 'graduating' to the bigger seat - only to find that i should keep him facing backwards really!
Also, I wonder about space. obviously they're designed for kids up to age 4 but are they really comfy up till that age when facing the back? they're doesn't seem to be miuch room for their legs. I would still like to be able to recline the seat for him when we're on long journetys and the couple i ahve looked at didn't seem to recline very much.
I suppose i'm just after peoples thoughts really... whether they chose a rear or forward facing seat and why... and whether their children like the rear facing ones...
Very reluctant to make such an expensive purchase without getting some wise input from MN... thanks!
