Abbey is 16 months and a little over 9kg and she is still rear facing. We have a safe and Sound Royale and I can keep her rear facing till she is 12 kgs. She is a bit of a squirt and quite happy to face that way so we havent bothered changing. My DP read the thread and watch the video and is now adamant that we wont change her around till we have to. The video in the thread is a must see.

HTH
