We have 9 month old twins that are just about to outgrow their infant seats and we don't think our convertible Britax Roundabout seats will fit rear facing in our car. My husband tried once and couldn't get them to work. Has anyone used 2 rear-facing seats in a small car? Maybe we should just get a professional installer to check it out?

Also, we are thinking about getting a larger car (the other one is a corolla) -- does anyone have any experience with 2 carseats in either a Taurus wagon or a Mazda 6 wagon? Do you suggest an SUV or minivan instead? We will probably have a new baby while the girls are still in booster seats. We just want to plan to have enough room.

Thanks!!

	Rear Facing Car Seats A rear-facing seat is one in which the infant faces the back of the car. Always install a rear-facing seat in the back seat of your car. This is the safest position for an infant. NEVER place a rear-facing seat in the front seat of a vehicle with passenger airbags.

	Convertible Car Seats Convertible seats are for infants and toddlers. The seat can be used as a rear-facing seats for younger children, and switched to a forward-facing seat on the child's first birthday if the child weighs at least 20 pounds. However, experts recommend keeping the child in a rear-facing position until he or she outgrows the weight or height allowed by the safety seat.

	Booster Seat A booster seat raises your child up so that the car's lap and shoulder belts fit correctly. The lap belt should fall across the upper thighs. The shoulder belt should go across the middle of the shoulder and chest. A booster seat is used for older children up to about 80 pounds. Some states have passed laws requiring booster seats for children up to age 8 or 80 pounds. Check your state's law.
