Baby Carrier with Hip Seat, Mumgaroo Baby Carrier Newborn to Toddler All Seasons & All Position Hip Baby Carrier with Hood & Extra Safety Belt, Baby Holder Carrier for Breastfeeding, Infant & Toddler

I found this carrier to be a little too complicated for me. With my nearly 10 lb newborn, Im using the full carrier setup. It has many more connections than other carriers and its cumbersome to try to position a wiggling baby on the hip carrier while trying to put on shoulder straps and tighten the seat straps. Even after attaching and tightening everything, my baby does not feel secure. Also, she looks like she is hunched over due to the placement of the seat flap on the hip carrier. As such, I wouldnt recommend this for newborns. However, the hip seat only configuration is very nice and seems like it would be good for an older toddler that may not like to stay in one position for very long. For all configurations, the waist belt needs to be really tightened in front then rotated in place. Otherwise it feels too loose when a kid is on it. The pockets are in great locations and are easily accessible. The videos on the amazon listing are a must due to the complexity of the carrier.

My favorite part of this is the hip seat. Great carrier for multiple stages of infancy-toddlerhood

I absolutely love the versatility of this carrier! It’s good for newborns all the way to toddler! There are a variety of positions to choose from. The padding is enough to provide comfort while still doing a good job of providing support. The stitching seems great- no worries about it coming apart. My only complaint is that the instructions are minimal, so there’s a learning curve on how to use it. Overall I love this carrier!

If youre a top heavy mom, it can be a little difficult to get the fit just right.

This is a must have for babies. My little one is chunky, and we dont leave the house without this. Its so much easier on the back. The straps are easy to use, adjustable and comfortable to wear. Once you adjust the straps to you for the first time, its super easy to put on and off. Ive yet to use this with the hip seat alone as we like the straps for extra support.

I really like the different options. Its been really helpful as Ive had back pain and weakened core muscles from pregnancy.

This is such a versatile and well thought out carrier. It’s easy to wash and truly grows with your child to ensure you get lots of use out of it. Very happy with mine!

So far I love it. It came fully assembled and ready to use. I tried it out three ways on the very first day at the park. 1st, the hip carrier as I rushed around getting the other four kids out of the door for the park. I absolutely loved this version, as I was able to carry the baby on my hip and I did feel as if the hip carrier was high quality as it gave me comfort and lifted him up on my hip. 2nd, I used the backpack version once I got to the park and hit the trails. It was a little tricky to get him in there without the help of my two teens. I turned the hip portion towards me fit him into the harness and then attempted to turn the hip portion toward my back as I slid my arms into the backpack. Baby wobbled and could have gotten hurt if not for my teens. once on the back though, I love the way the carrier distributed the weight. However, I do not recommend using the carrier on your back without the hip seat. Your back will thank you. The carrier alone is not sufficient for a toddler, like my 12-month-old. 3rd, I tried the hip carrier with the seat belt. I must say, it was interesting. But it does work and keeps baby safe if you have one that loves to make drastic sudden movements. The seat belt gives you time to catch your little one. Your arm of course should always be around your LO, however, LOs can be pretty fast and clever. I personally didnt like this way too much as I could not put him up and down without detaching and reattaching the belt. I also thought wearing the hip seat in front of you was unsafe. My son began to slide forward and I didnt feel the same comfort as when it was worn on the side. It was awkward and unsupportive of us both. Sure it would work along with the carrier function, just not worn in front of you without the carrier function. All-in-all, I love it so far. Only time will tell how well it holds out. The hat function was also nice when my son was sleepy on the trail. He did not like it at first, but it soon wore on him.

It was kind of difficult for me to figure out how this baby carrier goes, because Ive never had a carrier before, but I eventually figured it out. This is a quality carrier. Its well made. It has lots of cushion, which makes it comfortable for the mother as well as the baby. This carrier has pockets in the most convenient spots. I love that! Its easy to reach around the baby and go into the pockets. The straps are adjustable. It has clips, which offers support as well as security. The color is neutral, which means it can be used for a boy or a girl. I would recommend this baby carrier.

Well designed, well made baby carrier. The color is great! I love that this is multi-function: front facing out, front facing in, back carry, hip seat facing out, hip seat facing in and hip seat lying. It’s well cushioned and offers adjustments to get the perfect fit. It also seems very breathable.
