What is the starting age for use of this cover?

I can just tell you for me I started my daughter in this when she was able to sit up unassisted.

There is no starting age it's just when you feel your baby is ready & able to almost sit on their own. Because the sides help support so they don't fully have to able to sit up on their own. It's all up to the parent to decide.

We started about six months. It is only useful if the baby can sit in a grocery cart upright. It is not useful if the baby is still in a carrier.

I d say as early as your baby can sit on his/her own or just before. It has really nice pillows on both sides that will actually help to hold your baby up.

I would say 4 - 12 month olds. My son started at 4 months and loves it still at 8 months. Due to height restrictions it probably wouldn't fit any older than a 1 year old.

Most recommend 12 months and up, and up to 40 lbs. My daughter was 18 months and 21 lbs when we started using one - so weight-wise your daughter will be fine but the hard part might be finding a helmet that fits. We had to adjust the smallest one we could find even smaller for her (average size - 50% percentile) head. The 12 month age recommendation is probably for head/neck control - much like a forward facing car seat the main concern is safety in the event of an accident. The "seat" itself is more like a hammock or sling - just a piece of fabric - so if the child can't sit up properly the seat won't work well. Most recommend 12 months and up, and up to 40 lbs.

Generally, I can get by using one or two covers per day --alternating each change so they air out completely. I have 4 covers, but 6 would be ideal and allow for backup if any covers get poo on them and need to be washed. In a pinch, I just let my 18 month old go without a cover (as long as a bm is not in his near future).These covers are just a single layer of fabric, and don't absorb much odor to begin with.

Our little grandson started using his at 5 months, but I think he is more interested in it and can sit up well enough at 6 months to really enjoy it. I would say that 6 months would be a good age (depending on the development of the child) to introduce this product.

I started using them for my 3 and 1 year old. They still use it no problems a year later. Fits well with them.

Depends how old. I was able to use the same cover from my 10 year old unit.

I started using them when my child was about 6 months. She is 14 months now and still uses them. Hope this helps.

It's just like the Econobum or Flip covers - you can use either a prefold or an insert inside of it. We found that the Thirsties covers were really great for when our baby was very small, because they have extra coverage around the leg holes. But, he's already grown out of them (by 7 months).

Depends how tall is your 22 month old. Mine is 19 months old and still fits in. We have used it for over a year and absolutely love it. It keeps him super warm and protected from the wind and cold.

I'm not sure, as I bought this for my toddler grandson. I am thinking about age 7, max.

This seat is only to be used for rear facing. Studies show infants and toddlers should remain rear facing until at least age 2 or even up to three. Doing this will greatly reduce the risk of serious injury during accidents.

My kids all started teething at 4 months, so they were wearing them before that. I bought one for a friend as well. All my friends have started their babies wearing them at least as early as 4 months. My 18 month old has been wearing his since then and has only had it off a handful of times. I have never had a problem with it even when it seemed a bit big at first.
