Remember I mentioned above that I received my Lillebaby for free in collaboration with the company, but here's the thing. I'll do my best to give you an honest answer here. (Traveling with 3 kids 4 and under can come with a lot of gear). I don't think that's necessarily a negative, because part of what makes it so bulky is the wide waist belt which makes it a lot more comfortable. It takes up a lot of space in the car or the bottom of the stroller. ![]() I had to think about this for a minute, because I use my Lillebaby almost every single day, take it everywhere with me, and absolutely love it! I think the only thing I don't love is that it's pretty bulky to carry with you. The videos are super easy to follow and a great resource! Anything you didn't like? Lillebaby provided instructional videos to help you figure out the different carrying positions to make sure you're using it correctly and safely. My baby is almost a year and weighs around 23 lbs currently, and I can easily wear him for over an hour and still feel perfectly comfortable. Thankfully, the Lillebaby comes with lumbar support, and a lot of the baby's weight is distributed to your hips with the wide waist belt.

This was my biggest concern, but I quickly learned that Lillebaby had parents' comfort in mind when they designed this carrier. You can also switch to the hip position, or back position once the baby has excellent head control. Baby can face forward once he or she is big enough, which I love since my baby always wants to see what's going on. Like I mentioned above, there is a wide seat and a narrow seat. ![]() Since there are six carrying positions, you can make simple adjustments to the Lillebaby to change the carrying position as the baby gets bigger. The first few times I wore my little one who was 7lb 7oz at birth, I just put a rolled up blanket under his bottom until I felt like he was big enough to be carried without it. Lillebaby is one of the few carriers I've found that can adjust from narrow to wide seating to keep baby safe and comfortable.Īnother nice thing is that there is no extra insert needed for newborns. I know there are always concerns about whether the carrier is comfortable for baby and whether the sitting position is ergonomically correct or not. We tried the Baby Bjorn we had received at our first baby shower, but that made my back ache after just a few minutes. Once I had my second, though, we were living in Florida, and the Moby wrap just felt like too much work and too much fabric to deal with in the Florida heat, especially considering baby #2 was born in July. I loved that it kept both of us warm on long walks in the winter, and I loved feeling to close to my baby. ![]() I had no other kids to take care of at the time, so it wasn't a big deal that it sometimes took a couple tries to get the wrap just right. We lived in chilly Minnesota, so I didn't mind all the fabric. ![]() With my first baby, I wore her in a Moby wrap until she got too big. I had heard good things about the Lillebaby carriers and was curious about whether they would be a good fit for me. The one thing I felt like I didn't have was a baby carrier that I absolutely loved and was comfortable enough to use for long periods of time. We had a girl, then a boy, so regardless of gender our third baby would be clothed. We had already bought or received hand-me-downs for every swing, bouncer, and gadget a baby could want. In addition, I received my LILLEbaby carrier for free as part of a collaboration with LILLEbaby.īy the time you have your third baby, you really don't need any new gear.
