Seat Recommendations
"Now you have seen these standard recommendations, I would suggest
you look at your child and use your judgment as to whether your baby should move up to
the next seat. I had a patient of mine who weighed 40 lbs at 7 months old. There is no way
he would fit in the seat for his weight. I think the seats should be for the length of the baby.
If your baby's head and feet hit the ends of your present seat, then he probably needs a
bigger seat. The main idea is that the straps hit his body where they are
supposed to make contact and hold him in the seat. It's just common sense." .... Dr. Knapp
