My baby is due July 1st. Will she be hot in the carrier?

I am not sure. If she is dressed cooly I would not think so. My baby was a winter baby so I had the opposite concern. I would suggest contacting Ergobaby or checking their website on how to avoid baby overheating. Congratulations!

We live in Kentucky and i cant put our daughter in the baby carrier when its hot outside. We both get so warm from being so close together that its due to the weather absolutely not comfortable. But i think you have this problem with every baby carrier during the summer.

This was a gift for my grandson who lives in Hawaii so I don't think hot weather will be a problem for you.

Thanks for your insight, Jessica. I think we're going to go with an infant carrier after all.

I don't live in Florida, but did use this over the hot weekend at SD Safari Zoo while it was 90°F, and baby was fine in it comfortably. There wasn't excessive sweating, but I did also used a stroller canopy extension and that could have helped reduced the temperature.

Yes and especially hot weather. Protects the babies from any hot or cold parts. Love this car seat!

We never used anything for heat, I truly believe the heartbeat does the job, really amazing!!! Good luck with your new pup, Bella will be 4 months on May 10th, and she still loves her snuggle puppy.

Yes. I bought this for my wife during her pregnancy, and she would agree with that assessment. It is certainly cool at the beginning of the night, but it is no longer cool to the touch by 3 to 4 hours later.

I'm sure it would get hot in the sun, as it is black plastic. But most of the area your child would contact is covered with fabric, so I wouldn't worry about it. I bought this because we have two Britax car seats, and we were impressed with the quality and thoughtful design. Britax specializes in baby stuff, so I would go Britax again in a second.

Mine is still an infant but I do believe this will be an issue still. I got the GT though and will use a blanket to prop her up if needed. No big deal in my opinion

I find that if I put anything more than a onesie on my little girl, she tends to get hot overnight. We also keep a small ceramic heater in her room so it never drops below 70 degrees so if your baby's room tends to get cold, you might need a little more.

This thing holds in heat fairly well, so you won't need to wrap the baby up in blankets when it is warm out. Truthfully, the main temperature problem is you. You will heat your baby up, because they will be right up against your body. We found that was sometimes a little too much warmth for extended trips when baby was 1 month old, but even at 3 months it is no longer a problem.

Its definitely too warm in my opinion for the summer especially without a/c. Its a very thick material. Every baby is different however. You can always give it a try and if not return. Just know as other reviewers have pointed out it's essentially a snowsuit.

I don't think so, at least not any hotter then a stroller, bed or any other place you would put an infant. It has a very soft cover, and my grandson also had a head and side support insert because he's so small. He seemed very comfortable in it when it was 85+ degrees with no air conditioning.

Hi there congrats on new baby!!! My baby was born a month earlier and her we has to work on her weight due to her early birth but I put her in the cangaroo bag when she was a month and a half . I had a cheaper one but it didn't offered a solid back support but this one is perfect. I am not going to lie I have tries several and they are all kinda complicated to put on and then of but I like this one. Hope I could help :)

As in good positioning for the babies hips, yes. If it means the carrier is positioned so that the baby is sitting on your hips no. (does that make sense?)

As long as you keep your house at the recommended AAP temperature and dress your baby appropriately underneath (light cotton pj or onesie) overheating should not be an issue. We have attached a link to a great article written by an RN regarding using the Magic Sleepsuit in warm weather that should answer any questions. We can be reached at 877-458-0130 if you have any additional questions!http://blog.isisparenting.com/magic-merlin-sleep-suit-in-this-weather/

This shouldn't be a problem if you have AC. As long as you don't let the room get too warm, the baby will be fine. I would go with the cotton one over the microfleece one though, it will breathe better.

We live in South Texas and our child was born at the beginning of August (so, it was like 13-110). We just put him in it without anything else on, and he was happy as can be! He runs pretty hot too. Even in the winter we had him in just a onesie with the blanket on.
