I wear him on my back in a tula toddler. It is a perfect fit (doesn't support to his knees) but he doesn't complain. Beco Gemini on the front with baby but I found that was very quickly grown out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2327979 Tue, 20 Oct 2015 23:13:48 +0000 Navy_Mommy 2327979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wes is an average height 3 and a half year old weighing 34 pounds. I still wrap him on a somewhat regular basis (a few times a month) even though I'm 21 weeks pregnant with baby 3. My husband probably wears him once a week in our standard lillebaby. It's not full knee to knee coverage, but fits fine for him and hubby. The other day he actually fell asleep on his back! It was nuts! </p> <p>We only wear him when he asks. Oliver, who's 20 months old, gets worn on a daily basis. I wrap him, DH uses the lille with him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319718 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 13:45:47 +0000 sslm 2319718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is 2.5, 36" and about 28 lbs. I still occasionally use our toddler tula. She doesn't want to be restrained, but in certain situations she'll tolerate it! </p> <p>The toddler tula goes up to 50 lbs I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319711 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 13:42:03 +0000 lamariniere 2319711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was done with toddler wearing before my son outgrew the ergo weight limit. It was too much for me! But I was never that into baby wearing, and my LOs didn't seem too into it either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319673 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 13:22:08 +0000 bpcmarj 2319673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If they made one for a 3 year old that is the size of a 6 year old I would be all over that. She still LOVES to be held and I think she would do well being worn in a lot of situations! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319648 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 13:10:52 +0000 Kemma 2319648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I occasionally back carry Miss A in our Ergo but she's way too leggy and tall despite the fact that she's a total lightweight! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319530 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 12:16:22 +0000 MrsSRS 2319530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 2yo is over the Ergo weight limit now (35 and he's close to 40) but I still wear him for brief stretches. Mostly when he's being a handful or clearly getting jealous of his sister and needing some attention. But it isn't super comfy for him so then he asks to get down. Win win. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319521 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 12:12:27 +0000 yellowbird 2319521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter wants me to get a carrier for her but she is huge!! 40 inches and 38lbs! I might die </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319471 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 11:48:06 +0000 birdofafeather 2319471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vote for toddler Tula. I haven't been able to wear her since getting pregnant but DH has and she's snug as a bug in it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319468 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 11:46:04 +0000 ValentineMommy 2319468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Toddler Tula all the way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319448 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 11:38:19 +0000 Truth Bombs 2319448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My almost 3 year old has zero interest in being worn (and hasn't for a while), and I'm not inclined to wear her anyway since she's getting big. When we are out and about she wants to run around and play and explore. If we will be going somewhere that I don't think she can walk the whole time or I need to be able to contain her for safety, we bring the G Luxe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319445 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 11:37:09 +0000 MoonMoon 2319445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kid isn't 3 yet, but weighs 32 lbs and is 36" tall. We still wear him all the time in the Onya. I think it goes up to 45 lbs so I assume we'll use it past 3. It's indispensable for travel and hiking, I'd definitely buy it again.I do miss the front carry though, but obviously we have to sick with back carry now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319438 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 11:33:44 +0000 snowjewelz 2319438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Connecta's make a pre-school one that's even bigger than toddler size I think! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319435 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 11:33:13 +0000 yoursilverlining 2319435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO still loves to be worn in a Toddler Tula, and it's still comfortable for me to wear her in the tula. She is on the smaller side though, about 36" but only 26lbs. We still babywear for any long distance / long day activities. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319430 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 11:30:28 +0000 Thrifty Mama 2319430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Toddler Tulas are great! My 1 year old is the size of a 2 year old though and I'm only 5'2" so we don't carry him often. We recently went to an aquarium that doesn't allow strollers (which I didn't know at the time), and they rented out backpack type carriers. My son loved that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319410 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 11:24:17 +0000 mamabolt 2319410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ha, my 3 yo is 35 lbs and 39", no way am I carrying her as much as I adored my Beco! We stopped with it right after she turned 2. We have considered a backpack hiking style carrier so we could go on hikes and put her in there if/when she gets tired, but haven't pulled the trigger on that yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319362 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 11:12:43 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 2319362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use a Toddler Tula occasionally. It stays in my car and I don't keep my stroller in there anymore, so it comes in handy sometimes. LO is more of a 2 year old size (24lbs) so it's pretty comfy and fits him very well. I even wore him on the front this weekend. We were banging heads a bit, but it worked : ). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/carriers-for-kids-age-3#post-2319281 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 10:47:46 +0000 mediagirl 2319281@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you have a child carrier for a child older than age 3? I thought kid wearing was done once the child out grew the Ergo but I've been seeing some things about kids being worn beyond the baby stage. What do you have? Would you buy it again? Would you buy something else? </p>
