My DD is just over 6 months and I want to get her out of her infant seat. She can probably last another 1-2 months in it. She is almost 25" but she is only ~14 lbs. I am tired of carrying the infant seat around, etc...
I planned on getting a MA for my car. My DH will need one for his car but he never drives her around. He carpools to/from work so the only time he would really ever have her is maybe on the weekend, but still rare at that. I dont think he will want to spend another $250+ on a MA for his car. He has a '97 Chevy Blazer now. But will probably get a new car in the next 1-2 years. We arent sure what though.
I like the safety ratings of the Britax and all the good reviews. I wonder if we should get a RA for his truck instead. I know most people say that kids outgrow the RA sooner so the MA is a better buy. But my girl is in the 17% for height an only 10th for weight. Maybe she would get her use out of it? Is there a case like this where the RA makes sense over the MA?
