I actually rang the company who makes the carseat we have the other day in regards to if I had ot turn jack around when he reached 9kg, a tech spoke to me and said that is the min weight for forward facing and as long as he is comforatble he can stay rearward *wooo* was a weight of my shoulders was so not ready to turn him, am sure he will be at or just under 9kg mark at CHN on tuesday
