Pins and needles

My 3 year old (just) rear faces in the 2 way pearl. Her legs look squashed but I always ignored this as I know this doesn’t matter so much. However now she’s saying that she’s getting pins and needles every time we go on a journey. I really wanted her to read face for longer - what can I do?

Has she nearly outgrown the Pearl and if so, would you buy another ERF seat? If so you could try a 25kg seat like Axkid Minikid/Move or the Britax Two Way Elite which can both set to have more leg room.

Their legs should be more supported when RF because they can rest on the seat whereas obviously FF their legs just dangle so you might not find that was actually any better.

No I measured her yesterday and she’s 10 cm below the limit. Definitely not particularly big or tall for her age. I don’t want to buy another seat in same category considering this cost me £400 and she’ll be out of it in a year....
