Is this safe to use with a baby younger than 3 mos? It seemed to put my 1 mo old's head in an odd position I wasn't comfortable with.

I got this for my grandson, he is now 2 months his mother puts a folded wash cloth on each upper corners at the top, seems to work well for her.

Yes, but you'll probably have to make adjustments. I bought a head support pillow set for baby's carseat, and have used that effectively to keep my LO's head from lolling about and keep it in one of the more reclined positions until he gains better neck control. I bought: JJ Cole Head Support Graphite and it includes TWO head support pillows of different sizes.

We used this with our 2 month old, at the most reclined position, so he was mostly laying down. However, my son was holding his head up on his own at roughly 7/8 weeks and this may have had something to do with his head staying in line with his body.

Unless you can get a head support, this is not suitable for a child under 3 months old. We just started using it for my nephew who is now 4 months old and it works very nicely. However, he has better control of holding his head and sitting up. It's a great lightweight stroller, though.

Hi Joanne,I also have a 2 year old and used it on her. I just made sure that I didn't put it on her hands that she puts in her mouth. I also used it on my 3 month old's legs. :)

I used it for my daughter since she was 1week old. The pillow has many holes for heat release and i felt this is crucial especially in case the baby faces down when she learnt to turn her head-at least can breathe better. My daughter is 9mth old and her head is round so I guess it works with preventing flat head syndrome. She's still using it now!

I used mine for my 4-6mo old and let him face out. It worked well for a while but he was a big boy so he was sweaty and didn't like being confined to my chest (but that was with all wraps-k'tan, ergo, etc) after a certain amount of time. It's nice for temporary hands free moments but my back was sore after longer periods of time (but he was 15lbs at 3mo)

You can rectify flat head up to 6 month old. It did help my daughter a little but it doesn't do miracles. Make sure to give him a lot of tummy time.

We only used it once, and it was ok for an 11 month old. It is wider at the base than the top of the chair, that gives stability. Also, the baby is snugged right into that seat, which doesn't allow for much movement. Consider how your own weight feels in one of these folding chairs, although I realize that the baby chair is a bit higher off the ground. I am a safety nut with kids(retired teacher) and this seems like a safe chair.

I don't believe 1 month old needs a pillow. At this age babies necks are too short and delicate and pillows may be uncomfortable. I stopped using this pillow when my babies flat spot on his head improved and almost gone.

I don't think it is good for a newborn. When my daughter was born i was unble to use it becuase the seat it is to deep and i felt that she was kind of sinking into the seat, it was forcing her little back to seat and a newborn is not yet ready for that.

No...i found this product useless...it only elevated head at best which worried me more than anything because babies airway should remain neutral and she kept sliding down anyways or turning sideways. I found this product useless and dangerous. Mine still sleeps in rock n play and she's 5 months old. I. Love it because she stays in place and doesn't slide down. Good luck! Hang in there

It did not work for me it worked for others. So my best advice is to try it. However i am not sure if this is meant for babies.

I started using it with my 10 month-old. She could easily sit on it unassisted. Of course I stayed right by her just in case. My friends with 2 and 3 year olds use it too. Wide age range :)

If your little one is sitting up or trying I would not recommend using this product.

We use this with our 3month old and just recline one seat all the way back. He usually falls right to sleep! I was nervous about using it with him since he can't sit up on his own but once I got him in there it worked just great!

My daughter was 4 months old but had been holding her head up on her own. We did not use it as a bike trailer until the recommended age. I used it as a stroller/jogger. Honestly the snuggler did not make it much past 6 months for us. It made it really uncomfortable for the sibling riding next to the snuggler too.

I agree with one of the previous posters. Our pediatrician recommended not using this as an overnight sleeping option. We used it when we were traveling when our son was younger (up until about 3 months), but after that our son could roll over and preferred to sleep on his stomach. Not sure how tall your baby is, but our son was around 23-24" at 3 months and still fit but didn't have a lot of extra room.
