I've been perusing my Baby Bargains book for suggestions, but most of the info is on convertible seats. I'm not sure I want a convertible - do I?
Our 10 month old daughter is on the long and skinny side. She will be 1 year old way before she will be 20 lbs. So we have a while before she will go forward facing (I need the time to research!). She will also be the only child - so I don't need to take into consideration any sibling use in the seat after her.
I think I'd like a seat with a higher weight restriction (just to keep from buying another in a few years), but I also need to take into consideration her length - she just might beat the length restriction before the weight restriction of the seat (is there a length rest. on forward facing?).
We have a 2002 Mazda Tribute with LATCH. The latches are in the back seat on both passenger sides, but not the center (I can't figure out why), and there are three places to latch in the roof near the back of the vehicle. We rarely carry any other passengers in the back seat, so I guess how much space our daughter's seat takes up is almost irrelevant.
Baby Bargains really touts the Britax Convertible seats - just wondering what the popular opinion was. Thanks so much, I have a lot of work ahead of me.
