A year old....but she is petite.

I miss her infant seat, she falls asleep in the car and it was so much easier to go from place to place.



DD was about 10 months - I loved & miss it too!

Ava was in it until 5 months. Brody till about 3. He was and is sooo big, I couldn't carry it anymore.

Now at 5 months, he is 21 lbs!!

I was wondering the same thing. At Emerson's last ped appt. she was 24 3/4" long and 14lbs 3oz. (that was her 4 month visit) so technically she can still use it but I'm finding she's looking a little squished these days in it (I have the Chicco seat) and her plus the carrier are getting SO heavy!!!! It's killing me to even get her from the front door to the car. I love the ease of it though so I'm going to try and hang in there until the warmer weather unless she totally grows out of it by then. Guess we'll see.

10.5 months in my car (could have made it longer, but it was too heavy for me) and 11 months in DH's car.

DS's seat went to 29 inches. He was at that mark before 5 months. We switched him then.

we're trying to hold on as long as we can! at 7.5 months, DS is 27.25 inches and almost 19 pounds. i can still carry the infant seat without a problem and don't want to give up the convenience. he's 50% for height and weight.

DD was a big baby but no longer. She was 9lbs 4 ozs at birth - but she only outgrew the seat at 11 months - we probably could have made it to a year b.c at her 12 month appt she was 20 lbs 2ozs and 29 inches exactly - but the seat said I think under 29 inches so we switched her just to be safe. Honestly how long you use it depends on how quickly your child grows. I know people whose child outgrew the seat at 4 months and others at 1 year.

Re: When did your DC grow out of the infant seat?

I think it was around 5 months. She was just too heavy for me in that seat and too snug. She was so much happier in the convertible seat, but it was a huge pain shopping with her until she was able to sit in a cart.

DD is going to be 10 months next week and we still use the infant seat. We have the Chicco Key Fit 30. It is getting hard to carry her around in that thing though! She is 20 pounds and in the 75th percentile for height, but she still fits nicely in this seat.

I think I'm putting in the Britax in the next couple of weeks though!
