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

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.

Mumgaroo Baby Carrier with Hip Seat - $52.98 This is a very nicely built carrier. The materials seem of good quality. The fabric and material are soft as to not irritate you or the baby. Functionality is good with lots of clips, straps, and buckles to make everything feel snug and secure. The price seems comparable to other carriers on the market with similar functionality.

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.

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.

The waist and back straps are well cushioned, there is not embedding in the skin, the sit part is the thing that really helps distributing the weight. You can use the carrier without the sit, but then you will feel the weight in your shoulders and back after a while, and the position of the babys hips and legs is not ergonomic at all. Although the sit and the rest of the carrier is only attached by a zipper and snaps, your baby is safe if by any chance this system brakes, as the child is to be positioned inside the carrier that hang from your chest or back, and then that whole thing sits on the plastic chair on your hips. I really love this carrier, is very comfortable for the child and the person who is wearing it. Using just the bottom part is great when doing errands if you dont want to waste time putting and taking the whole thing several times. You can use it like a fanie pack, turn it to one of your hips, and hold-support your toddler on the side without killing your arm. I havent use it for too long, so Im curious how the cushioning in the straps are going to hold on over time as the baby grow, also how the plastic closures are going to hold as well. So far it looks like quality, but I have experience with cheap carriers, or second hand ones that the closures gets toasted and cracks. Overall this is great and very easy to put and take off and to secure the baby inside.

The hip seat itself is not the most sturdy. No matter how tight I wear it it still drags down significantly when I put my baby on it so it doesn’t end up being super helpful. The harness is kind of confusing the strap on.

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!

This carrier is definitely convenient and comfortable. The mesh material on the inside is so breathable. The buckles feel well secured and sturdy. Ive pinched myself quite a few times because the buckles snap into place so quickly and tightly.

Im planning on gifting this to my brother and his wife, who are expecting a baby. They have a couple of different baby carriers from their first baby, but this looks more high end. I really like the supportive baby seat in front and how you can use this a number of ways. It also looks much more supportive of your lower back than most baby carriers. Plus, really high end packaging makes this very giftable. Great product.
