Can someone give me some info about how long baby's legally need to rear face for, how long it's advisable to rear face for and how much safer it is?
Ds2 hates the car he screams until he's turning purple, choking on his saliva and has made himself sick. I avoid using the car as much as possible but we live in a village so for somethings we need the car. I'm wondering when I can turn him as I feel there is really a danger when I'm driving because I'm so worried about him. He will still cry forward facing but at least I can see him and know if he's choking or being sick I have a seat that swivels and have had to turn him twice in mid journey because I felt I couldn't carry on without seeing he was OK, at these times he has kept crying but not hysterically. I want to do the safest thing but I'm really scared I'm going to crash if I can't resolve this I've tried all sorts to stop him. He's generally a very happy chilled baby but hates when he can't see me.
