Mr C is 15 months and around 10.5 kilos.....we still have him rearfacing and won't turn him until we absolutely have to...there are some really good YOu tube vidoes on rear facing versus forward facing that might help you make your decision.....
In A lot of the european countries they have seats that rearface until 4 years of age...the kids just fold their legs like when they are sitting on the floor....comfortable for them and so much safer for their developing spine. I only found this out the other day but did you know that when a baby is born their spine is made of cartilage not bone and it is not until about four years of age that it is fully formed into bone? same with their feet, thats why they have all that fat on their feet, protecing them as the bones develop...fascinating really......
ETA: MummyNaomi we have a mirror with lights and sounds on it..works really well for us!!
