Not according to the manufacturer I switched my baby out at 17 months, she still had plenty of room more than an inch above her head and under the weight limit. Dont spread misinformation


Most babies are uncomfortable in a doona by the time they reach 8 months, max a year. Regardless of what the manufacturer says. It's very narrow & so sweaty.

So far all of my babies are miserable & shrieking in the car from around 6 months old. It's safer for us to put them in a forward facing car seat at about 12-14 months, then to drive with shrieking miserable children that get car sick from rear facing.


It’s really not. Most of the time they need a more upright convertible seat and fan blowing cool air on them. Also half are not buckled correctly and are really uncomfortable because of it. Chest buckle needs to be at armpit level and tightened. I have helped many people problem solve there is always a solution. Risking serious injury in a car accident shouldn’t be your solution.

My babies are buckled well in a good convertible car seat. Rear facing makes them nauseous & car sick. They are really miserable & vomit during every trip till I turn them forward facing. It's the only solution & safer then being distracted by crying vomiting children while driving.
Babies getting car sick when rear facing is actually pretty common. Just like older kids & adults may get uncomfortable & nauseous when riding in a car rear facing.
