My DD just came out of her capsule as she was too long for it and I had to give it back to the hire place (only can hire for 6 months) and she has gone in to a rear facing seat. I too have read it is safer to keep them rear facing as long as possible.
We got to nine months and he got too tall for his capsule so we went and bought a good height rated covertible car seat (meridian Tilt and Adjust) and kept him rear facing. We just turned him forward facing last week at 18 months as he has hit the 12 kilo limit for rear facing so we had no choice...if we had a choice her would still be rear facing.
