Nope. Athan is over 16 months and we still have it rear facing. We will change it this weekend though... his legs look really cramped back there because he can't stretch them out.

We turned it around at 11 months because we were driving out east and the boys were well over the weight limit.

We did it a few days before she turned 1 she had the height and weight and we were tired of her kicking and screaming to go into her carseat...it has made life much easier

I think we did it at 14 or 15 months. He was way over 20 pounds and I was having trouble getting him in and out of it.

He likes being in the seat so much better, now that he faces forward and can see everything.

no, Ella was 18-19 months when we turned her. Erik is still rear facing (at 14 months).

he's not complaining so I'm keeping him rear facing as long as possible.

Yes, I switched it the afternoon of her first birthday. She reached the weight limit months before and she is so much happier this way.

No, but only because she was under the weight limit.

We switched DD around just shortly after her 1st birthday. She is over the weight limit.

We actually turned it around a few weeks before he was 1.
