Baby carrier

I have put mine 21 week old few times in forward facing carrier as she just loves it. Not for a long periods but at shops or shorter walks

I have, she loves it, my back doesn't 😅

I've put my 4 month old in it for short periods when he's unlikely to fall asleep, he enjoyed it

I’ve just tried it out for a short walk and she LOVED it! 🤣 never seen her eyes so wide haha

They have to be 6 months because of hip development, it can cause issues with hip growth before xx

I’m testing her out forward facing tonight for a short period as we are watching a Christmas parade, as long as they have good head control it’s fine to go FF from 4 months, ergo baby have this on their website xx

@Melissa I think that depends on the carrier and if their legs hang loose. In mine, even forward facing his legs are in the M position so I think that's ok for their hips. I think it's more about their head position I.e. it doesn't fall too far forward and restrict their airways

@Sally this is the carrier I have and she’s definitely tall enough and has very good head and neck control. I did check the guidance beforehand but just wanted other peoples opinions as she’s my first and I worry 😂

@Chloe same here 😊 took my girl out forward facing tonight in it and she loved it as well 🥰 x

I'm very tempted as my girl is nosey but I understand some carriers are better than others for this with the hips. So I'm going to be textbook and wait for the 6 month mark.
