My husband is rather wide. Are baby's legs going to be split too far open if she is facing him and has to straddle?

You can only carry a baby facing you in this carrier, or on your back. I should think the carrier doesn't make that much difference with the position of baby's legs, as this type carriers always mean legs are wide open and knees bent, kind of like squatting, much the same way as if you're carrying a baby on your hips. That is supposed to be more ergonomic for the baby than legs hanging right down, less stress on the baby's back.

I have a dual, and by the time my daughter was 12 months, her use of the infant side made it actually softer than the toddler side. So now our next baby gets to use the toddler side for better firmness.

I'm thinking its not reccomended because the support straps to keep your baby upright cannot lock in around the legs and pelvis if they are swaddled. However me and my wife still swaddled and just didn't use the supports but if you do this it is at your own risk.

It lays pretty flat so that would be ok, but I would buy something that gives the baby a little support that you put in the stoller. It's pretty roomy.

I would say the sides are in between squishy and firm. They are made of foam, so it's rigid and holds a form but can be squished with enough pressure. We used it in bed with us and never had a problem. Yes, someone could potentially still roll over on the baby, you just need to use discretion and decide what you're comfortable with.

If your baby is at the "able to roll over" stage then they could possibly flip over the edge. It's prob about a 2" side which isn't much.

Pretty much it is dependent on the baby. I stopped soon after my son could roll over which was around 5mo because his feet would hit one of the legs and make it collapse on him. A playard that crosses at the tip is probably a better choice to make.

It is not wide enough to go across a twin bed...a friend of mine has gout, I would not suggest this item to him...it is sturdy, but not very wide, it might work if you don't have restless legs...sorry not to be able to answer a straight "yes or no"

I don't know the answer... but I would like to add that the extended legs of the BAby Bjorn Travel Crib are a huge hazard. Not only can you trip on them... but you can trip on them while holding your little one. :(

I do think it's a weird angle for my newborn (now 6 weeks old). He seems kind of uncomfortable, but then again he falls asleep when we start driving so I guess it can't be that bad. He is 21.5 inches long, 9.5 lbs.

No. The walker would not be level and the baby/toddler would be leaning forward. Unfortunately, the wheels don't lock to make it stationary. Maybe someone will make that suggestion to the manufacturer!

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 had the same concern until I figured out a way to make it safer. Have baby wear it on his ankle UNDER his one piece romper or pajamas. He can't get at it that way . . .

I think it would be okay if the child's legs are not bent a lot with knees much higher than the thighs. It would've been difficult with my child when he was around 1 has his knees bent a lot for rear-facing. You should check if it would work by placing a book on your child's lap to see if it stays somewhat flat. If you're not sure of the size of the product, check the company's website. I hope this product will work for your child or, if not at least, find something else that's useful.

It should be fine! The spring adjusts and with the weight of the baby, I haven't had a problem with it so far!!

Depends on how long you want to keep him facing backwards, but I'm not sure what seat you have matters for that. My boy is about 34" tall right now and his legs are a little scrunched up, but he's still good for long trips. If you are going for forward facing, you'll need a Suburban to get away from the kicking in the back of your front seat, but that has more to do with the car than the car seat. Basically, your car makes a lot more difference with the legs than the car seat. I can't imagine that this seat would give a long-legged child any trouble.

I've only used it with my baby facing inwards. It's one of the most useful baby items I own
