When does a baby sit in forward facing car seat?
General guidelines:
* Rear-facing: Most car seats recommend staying rear-facing until at least 2 years old, or until the child reaches the maximum height and weight limits of their rear-facing car seat.
* Forward-facing: Once your child meets the minimum requirements for their car seat, they can transition to forward-facing. This typically happens around 2 years old, but some children may be ready earlier.
* Booster seat: When a child outgrows their forward-facing car seat, they can transition to a booster seat. This usually occurs when they reach 40 pounds and are 4 feet 9 inches tall.
Important factors to consider:
* Child's size and weight: Ensure your child meets the minimum height and weight requirements for a forward-facing car seat.
* Car seat model: Different car seats have different requirements and limits.
* State laws: State laws may have specific requirements for car seat usage.
Remember: Safety is paramount. It's always better to err on the side of caution and keep your child rear-facing for as long as possible.
