We're in exactly the same situation but all I know is rear-facing is a zillion times safer in the event of a crash.

There's this thing called the immi go that they use in Ubers. It's light and collapsible. Don't know about the safety rating.

Oh wow the Immi Go would be perfect but it's only front facing. I wonder if we can just keep Ivy out of cars between outgrowing her infant seat and turning two...

I might be wrong but I think there just isn't any way to keep them rear facing past a certain age/size. We had to turn k around pretty early because she was so tall.

The recommendation is a rear facing seat until they are 24 months, but there are height/weight limits for rear facing seats. Ivy's short and slim so she probably won't outgrow the seat before she turns two.
