Best carrier for big baby

7 replies

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

I have a big 98th percentile 11 month old who still loves being carried and I'm happy too but can't find a supportive carrier for us both.

I can't get on with slings so wanted a proper carrier if possible

Has anyone got any they can recommend please?

Many thanks

We like our Connecta carrier with a similarly chunky baby - easy to adjust, but not too rigid.

Tula are good, connecta carriers are amazing. I used one with my heaviest youngest. I used the toddler carrier to take the youngest home when he was tired after school as well.

Otherwise, wompbats are nice slings.

Gosh I miss slings.

I used my Beco Gemini with DS till he was about 3 and a half so would definitely accommodate any size baby comfortably.

We had a connecta with a big baby and really liked it.

Love my manduca. Still use it with my very sturdy 20 month old, and don't expect to stop for a good while yet.

We had a connecta which was great initially until he got too tall and heavy (also a big lad) so I struggled with the straps not being supportive. When DS was about 1 we got a toddler tula which was a godsend.

We're using Ergobaby 360 with our 1 yr old 98th centile DS. We use it daily, it's comfortable for both of us. I'm expecting to use it for quite a while (it's suitable for up to 20kg).
