Parents magazine states that the American Academy of Pediatrics' recommendation for a child in a rear-facing seat has been to keep them that way until the child is 1 year old or 20 pounds, but in light of new research, experts now recommend that you keep your toddler's convertible car seat facing backward until she reaches the seat's height and weight limits for the rear position....(usually 36 inches or 30-35 pounds).
The Consumer Product Safety Commission has new warnings regarding the safety of your babies crib. In order to make sure all baby cribs are safe (cribs, mattresses, and bedding) you must remove all stuffed animals, pillows, and soft bedding (including quilts and bumpers) from the crib. Check to make sure there isn't a gap larger than the width of two fingers between the sides of the crib and the mattress. Never use a crib with broken or missing slats. And regularly tighten hardware to keep the sides firm.
