Car seat question...

My son is almost 6 months old and weighs close to 18 pounds as fas a I can tell. He is getting too long for his infant carrier and lugging him around in it is ridiculous. I am considering facing him forward in a regular car seat before he is 1 year old and 20 pounds. I did the same thing with both of my daughters but every time I tell someone that they seem to freak out. I would be a safer driver with a happy baby that could see out than a screaming one who is facing backward. I guess I am just wondering if I am the only one that turns them around before you are supposed to and if I am an awful mom. :) Thanks for any input and opinions.
