- C Until age four or 40 pounds
- D Until the child can sit up without help

B. Until age two or the seat's limit
Children ride rear-facing up to age two, or until they reach the highest height or weight the seat maker allows. Rear-facing seats spread crash forces across a small child's back and head.
