Therefore, there is a need for knowledge and caution about switching from a car seat.

When is my baby too big for an infant car seat?

1. When their Height exceeds the infant car seat
   Although age and weight are specified on the car seat, each child is different, so all the identified factors should be kept as a guide. Children’s Height increases faster than their weight; the car seat height limit for a child is 30-32 inches, and by the age of two, children easily reach this measurement, some early and some late.
   If your child fits perfectly in the car seat, he is safe; don’t worry about his little legs coming out of the car seat. Babies are flexible and won’t sit comfortably even in a car seat. If they move themselves up and down, in case of an accident, the baby will not be harmed as long as they fit in their car seat
2. when their weight exceeds the infant car seat
   One reason for changing children’s infant car seats is that their weight reaches the given limit. Most seats weigh 30-35 pounds, and some only 22 pounds. Before using the car seat, note the weight on the place as a reminder and keep checking the child’s weight.
3. When the infant car seat is no longer usable
   Apart from weight and Height, most car seats cannot maintain their original condition due to excessive use and wear and tear, in which case the car seat needs to be replaced immediately, even if your child’s weight and Height reach the limit. Parents should thoroughly check the car seat to avoid any dangerous situations.
4. By the car seat manufacturer’s expiration date
   Each car seat manufacturer sets a limit for using the car seat, detailed on the sticker. Read the description carefully before following any guide.
