My baby is 9 lbs do I need the insert?

I would say you don't need one. I just used a blanket for our little one. She's still too little to roll over so we don't use the straps either. It's a pretty deep seat, you'll see what I mean when you get it.

Probably so. If you use one in a car seat probBly need one for the momaroo. But some people use the same insert for both.

My daughter was 8lbs when she started using and I did not need the insert.. Save your $40!

No insert is needed. An all in one diaper has a sewn in inset. I love these diapers because I don't have to fuss with inserts.

Either or...I use the KerrBear diapers and they have the pockets where you can slide the insert inside. It's up to you...I put the clothe insert on top instead of inside more so because if you put the insert on the inside of the diaper then you'll have to change both the cloth diaper along with the insert. I put mine on the top because my babe does not always leak through to the cloth diaper, so I can keep the diaper on her longer...hopefully all this makes since.

It does not have an infant insert, but because it is a Mei Tai you can roll the waist to shorten the body and it has a strap to cinch in the waist so that you don't need an insert. This video shows what I am talking about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-DlyAxI_uA

It doesn't have an infant insert, but it has loops and buttons and a piece you zip closed to use with an infant. It was ok when he was really little, but I would go with a Lillebaby (which we love and is way more comfortable to wear) or an Ergo baby carrier.

I purchased one for my daughter because I didn't like the way she looked sitting in the seat. The insert gave her a more comfortable fit plus it kept her cool. I used it until she was around 8 months. You can't go wrong if you decided to use it. God bless

I don't believe you will need anything but it depends on what you are using this for. If for baby to sleep on, no. Infants are suppose to sleep on their backs on firm surfaces. We will be purchasing king size pillow covers to cover the insert so to keep clean the insert.

Yes, I used it for my newborn with the insert. Now at 8 months were still using. I think she'll be out of it by a year. I am very happy with my purchase.

I take the try off. I don't think you'd be able to get the baby in and out if you have the infant insert because it just clears my baby's chunky little thighs. Plus it's made out of a grippy material so that would make it more difficult.

I personally used both the duo wrap and diaper covers do not come with inserts, the cover has a smaller weight range than the duo wrap because the duo wrap has bottons (as well as the Velcro) to make it bigger as you need it

We did use the infant insert with our 6 month old. I'm not sure we would have had to, but it made the chair more comfortable and supported her better as she was just learning to sit up. We just removed the insert a few weeks ago when she turned 9 months.

I think an insert is needed for an infant less than 3 months old. It makes the swing more comfy and more support. I bought this for my 5 month old and the headrest was too small but for a newborn this would work great.

I personally wouldn't bother with the infant insert if your baby is already 2 months and 13lbs. You could always roll up a receiving blanket to boost them up a bit if needed. There are videos on YouTube to see how to do it.

Yes, call recaro to get a free infant insert. We used it with our 8 lb 23 in new born. She fit nicely, tho I would not want to use it with a smaller baby.

It does not require an insert like some other carriers. (Ergo) the waist band folds up and snaps to make the body of the carrier shorter to accommodate a newborn. I believe that is a feature that has changed on the newest model recently released.

We purchased this to be used from birth for our baby. Our daughter went home at 6 pounds 10 ounces and it worked fine. It looked huge for her, but it is designed for babies as small as 5 pounds. However, you will want to purchase the Britax Infant Positioning Insert so that your baby fits safely until s/he reaches at least 11 pounds. She is 6 weeks old now and we are very happy with this purchase. You just have to be willing to go places without the "convenience" of an infant carrier (we have been using a ring sling, which I think is actually more convenient).

Depends on the size of infant. The insert secures in whereas blankets could slip and be a hazard.
