Callum is now 13.5 months and still fits in his baby seat. When should I change his seat? He is about 20lbs and in 9-12 months clothes, can walk and sit up unsupported. Sorry its been 6 years since I did this last lol!!

personally I woul dkeep him rear-facing as long as possible because it's safer.
unless his head is sticking up over the back, and as long as he is still within the weight limit for the baby seat then keep him in it

he still has about 6cm before he hits the top of the seat. His legs aren't cramped up or anything. I just thought about it as I had to bring his baby seat in today and thought 'oh should I change it?' lol

rear facing is SO much safer...

so keep him rear facing until 13kg OR eyes above the top of the seat if you can
