I would like to know how long an infant can stay this. I have a 4month old and wondering if it would be to small and should I go up to the Leachco Pillay Sling. What are the dimensions of this one?

my son is 21 months, is 30 lbs and over 30 inches tall and still lays in it to relax and watch tv. I thought about getting the bigger one...but for $129 i just couldn't spend the money.

Lol! I hadn't noticed but I feel like my baby was completely safe when she was smaller. She is 14 months now and I have been using it since she was 9 months about 3 days a week. She can climb out of it now and it tips so maybe that's why? Sorry I couldn't be more help.

My son still uses it but he is failure to thrive so is still pretty small for 18 months. 18 lbs. And he is 25 inches long and still fits comfortable Hope this helps.

It's about 26" long and 17" across, so for my very tall baby, we had to stop using it around 2 months because he was really squished in it. He was 24.5" by then. Babies who are not as long could probably use it longer.

This carrier is for DOLLS, not for living babies. It fits 15-18 inch dolls only and although it is designed very similarly to the mommy size one for a real baby it is not authorized or safe for living babies, it is only designed for toys. As for the weight limit of the child WEARING the doll carrier, we have one and my daughter began using at at her 3rd birthday and still wears her dolls in this carrier and has just turned 6. If waist measurement is an issue, I would say that it is pretty expandable and that given its straps and buckles a pretty hefty child could still wear this to carry their doll. The Ergo Baby carriers for baby that a mom would wear usually cost $100 or more. Hope this helps! This carrier is for DOLLS, not for living babies.

My son is 2 months old and successfully nurses while in our Ergo. The shoulder straps loosen quite a bit so that your baby can sit lower in order to reach the breast. You can buy sling type carriers that put the baby in a more natural position for nursing but I always found that I still had to hold baby up to the breast because I couldn't get the carrier to adjust perfectly. In the Ergo my son can nurse completely hands free. I have heard that the Moby wraps are good for nursing in but I've never had one. I love my Ergo. It's by far the most comfortable carrier I have ever owned and it can hold up to 35 lbs so we will get a few years out it. My son is 2 months old and successfully nurses while in our Ergo.

You're welcome! I understand. You're being cautious of course! Another item I used for all 3 of my babies was a "wedge" that kept the baby on their backs.. Course they can't roll anyway ... BUT it keeps them firmly in place - which is good.. And gives the parents more peace of mind. Good luck!! :)

I used the sling from birth until my baby could somewhat support herself in the reclined position. She is currently sitting on her own (7 months) and I still use it, since I put it in the tub and don't want to fill the whole tub and it helps her to have something to grab onto. She likes the water up to her belly (it keeps her warm). I plan on using it for awhile yet.

I find that its very similar to our Ergo as far as type of carrier. Also depending on how old your baby is it may be very big. Its a toddler sized carrier. I got ours when my son began to out grow the Ergo around 18mo. He's 2 yes and 32lbs now and I can carry him all day in it if needed. All that being said I do love our Moby Go but if your baby doesn't like the Ergo they probably won't like this either. I will also say though that sometimes being in a carrier (of any type) takes an adjustment period for baby. I would keep trying with what you have (for short times and when baby is happiest) or possibly try a ring sling. Hope this helps. I find that its very similar to our Ergo as far as type of carrier.

Hi Kelly!The owners manual doesn't recommend running with an infant until 8 months of age. We waited until our child could sit up by herself at 6 months before just using the stroller by itself.I'm not sure of your situation but, the best set-up would be a Bob Stroller with a Britax adaptor and Britax car seat for the first 6 months. After that you would just use the stroller by itself. The stroller is awesome, we used it for walking around stores when she was a newborn in her car seat and now we run with her in the stroller. It's definitely worth the money, especially of you plan on having another kid. Hope that helps! If you have any more questions feel free to ask!

We have Bumgenius Freetimes and have used the Large size for overnight doublers since our baby was 5 months old. She's now 13 months old and we still have had zero overnight leaks. We just fold over the ends and it will grow with the diaper as our daughter grows. it makes the diaper a bit bulky, but it's only for overnight and it lasts 13+ hours easily.

Yes! NO PROBLEMS!! Absolutely love it!!!!! Sling is attached well, & is easy to remove when needed. Very easy to clean, & it drains quickly. We haven't used the seat yet, due to the age of the baby. Can't wait 'til she can sit, to try it!

I tried it on my 3 month old who is 13 lbs. it's very big and bulky. It does tighten enough so you could use it but there are other, more comfortable options for an infant. It is better for a bigger child.

I would give it a try. My son is a little over 8 months. People tend to think he is younger because he is on the smaller side. He is a very active sleeper so it doesnt work well at night anymore, he usually ends up beside it etc.. But, we still use it for diaper changes, hc, swing etc so he's not flat on his head.the part where his head would rest is about 7 inches across in the middle if that helps. If it doesn't work u could save for another baby or loan/give away but I would try it. We will use it as long as possible, I'm sure he appriciates the extra cushion:)

I think our little one was about 18months when we got it but she's always been a little on the tall side. I highly recommend it!! If you get it and feel she's not ready for it yet just store it until its time. It really is worth the investment!

We purchased this to be used from birth for our baby. Our daughter went home at 6 pounds 10 ounces and it worked fine. It looked huge for her, but it is designed for babies as small as 5 pounds. However, you will want to purchase the Britax Infant Positioning Insert so that your baby fits safely until s/he reaches at least 11 pounds. She is 6 weeks old now and we are very happy with this purchase. You just have to be willing to go places without the "convenience" of an infant carrier (we have been using a ring sling, which I think is actually more convenient).

I was hoping the same thing, however although it doesn't say so in the website description, the packaging clearly states it's only good up to 4 months. We found out the hard way, my son was nearly 4 months when we bought it so we couldn't use it. It was definitely too small for him.
