Hi all you carseat gurus out there...
My dd is a year old. She's 17.5 lbs. and maybe 28 inches or so. She still barely fits in my Century Smart Fit Elite (22 lb. weight limit and 29" height limit) with a tiny bit over an inch of head clearance to the topof the shell.
She still loves to sleep in the car. I have had her in a Marathon for sometime, but took it out to wash the cover and re-installed the infant seat as a stopgap. But she actually sleeps and seems more comfy in the infant seat and it's so nice to be able to take her out still sleeping (she doesn't transfer well when asleep from the marathon to the sling or stroller).
She's a slow gainer. But relatively tall. Is there an infant seat out there with a higher height limit/weight limit? Is this acrazy thing to even contemplate buying now at a year old? She's probably going to be able to be in one for quite some time theoretically but maybe it's a waste?
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Nicole
