Thanks for that Olive. We got the safety rundown from the nice man at Kidsafe WA when he checked our carseat. I hadn't thought about how a baby would be thrown around in an accident if they were facing forward too early. There is a very sad And frightening clip on You Tube too. Pooley, you might want to have a look and rethink your decision to turn Frazer around. I really didn't see the problem until We had our seat checked. I was quite shocked. We'll be keeping Izzy rear facing for as long as possible.
