Infant carrier in the back?? Has anyone tried to put the infant carrier in the back part?

I would never, NEVER put the carseat in the back of this carriage... it's just not worth it. It's not the way the carriage was made or intended for use. Accidents happen...what if you were to tip the carriage up to go up a curb and the carseat fell out?!? I saw someone's review with a picture of the carseat in the back like you are describing and I thought to myself...CRAZY! Use the thing the way it was intended. Better to be safe than sorry. If you think your older child will get bored (?) give them a book to look at or play a little game with them like I Spy or soimething. Your sister doesn't even have this model carriage...don't do it. Follow the directions; it's better than a trip to the emergency room. And if you were to use it incorrectly and something went wrong; you'd look like such an incompetant when you explained how your child/children got hurt. I'm big for following directions and using things properly. Good luck!

I haven't but I'm sure it would work just fine as the back is strong enough to support the mother's back and the arms would give her support to hold the baby comfortably.

I carry my son in mine pretty often, but not for long amounts of time. Probably no more than 20 minutes. He is 30lbs, so not quite as big as your child. I think the Boba distributes the weight really well. I don't feel any pain when I carry him. It feels more like a weight pulling me back, like a turtle with a shell, but not to the point where it is painful. Idk where you are from, but there are baby wearing groups near me that hold meetings so that you can try out different carriers. I found a group on Facebook. That may be a way to try before you buy.

Hi Ashley,Unfortunately my husband and I tried to do the same but we're unable to do so. The toddler seat cannot fit facing forward with the infant carseat on top.

I have not tried it but I think not. I have only put the stroller with the regular seat in it.

I am still happy with most aspects of this stroller, however I don't think it was designed for a newborn nor would it be safe. Even If using a baby carrier. No way to secure it.

No, and no. It's very heavy and is best kept in the vehicle at all times. Some people prefer to have an infant carrier seat that can be clipped into and out of a base that remains in the vehicle. This is not that. Others prefer to just take the infant out and either wear baby or put baby into a stroller. I bought this for my 2yo son once he outgrew his infant seat. It's an amazing seat. And if I had to do it over, I would probably still prefer to keep baby in the infant carrier seat, then transition into something larger. But like I said, different people prefer different things.

I haven't used this carrier for a few years (my daughter is now almost 3), but as I recall, you can unclip on the side and put the baby in facing the front. I remember this carrier being very user friendly.Hope this helps!

I did not, but would have if my neighbor hadn't given me their infant Chicco carrier to use. The Britax is a fantastic seat!!! I love it! Very safe & secure! I highly recommend this car seat!

Yes it is. But you should get the infant carrier to go along with this as well.

I personally didn't use mei tai carriers til my baby was older. There's ways to use it with a newborn. Check out thebabywearer.com

This would work great! It's seriously the most versatile carrier we have tried. I'm 5ft and my hubby is almost 6ft. We both use it fine. It's got a good wide bottom so it supports the baby properly instead of letting them dangle. Our son loves it and he's 15 months old and still has room to grow in it.

Great quality carrier. Great for infants 3 months & up. Great back support. Very comfortable for baby aswell as mom/dad. All day wear due to the paddings. Baby is seated in his/ her own pouch, instead of against ur clothes. Younger baby's need Somen like a wrap where it's more swaddling in my opinion. I wouldn't recommend this Bjorne to moms under height 5.4 I'm selling mine for $65 on ebay as I'm too short for it so I didn't use mine for very long.

I put my 35-38 pound 4 year old in it on my back, and it was great!! You can wear it three ways so you can use it whichever way you and your son like best!! He will not outgrow it for a long time! Awesome carrier!

I took both carriers off the stroller and used them in the car for my cats. When I stopped somewhere I took the stroller out of the back, set it up and hook the carriers on. I had to adjust how the breaks on the back wheels went on because the pole they sent wasn't long enough.I snapped the pole that goes across the top of the carriers on upside down, so the "opening" was up instead of down how they say to put it. Less likely for it to come off while carrying it with a fur baby is in it. When I do have one of my fur babies in it I carry it so the bottom is supported.

Lifting and lowering the back is a pain. I rarely do it and both my 9 month old son (no longer using the carseat, he's sitting in the actual stroller) and 2 year old daughter have fallen asleep in the stroller without any problems.
