When to turn car seat around???

[~Belinda~]

I have a Safe and Sound Guardian Retractable car seat. My DD is 5 months old and just over 10kgs. Can I face her toward me now? Any advice? Many thanks.

There is a recent thread about that here: https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...-position.html

Usually the minimum is 6 months of age, but it is highly recommended now that you keep bub rearward facing until 12 months of age.

Scroll down to the link posted by Tanstar, it is very eye-opening.

I tured DD1 at 11 months and she was around 10kg

we turned sophie at almost 14 months and around 9kg, and only because we where heading away and 3.5 hrs for her facing backwards at that age was too much

After I saw that clip I decided the same thing! It's just not worth the risk is it?
