When did you start using your Beco Gemini with your LO? DD is 2 weeks old and 7.5lbs, so she's big enough for it, but she just seems so little still, that I'm nervous to use it with her. Did you use it when you LO was a newborn?
-
i think we waited until he was around just around 3 months? about 13lbs.
-
We used ours right away and our son loved it (and there was very little else that he loved in those early, colicky days...) He was 8.5 pounds when he was born, though, so a bit bigger than your LO.

@sarbear: I took LO to her first doctor's appointment in the Beco Gemini when she was 7 days old and only a few ounces heavier than your LO. It was totally fine. She was comfortable and slept most of the time.
-
I used it within the first few weeks and she was fine. But she was 9 lbs plus at birth so I never thought she was little!
-
oohh! i can't wait to give it a try a bit earlier with #2!
did you guys tuck their legs inside when wearing them at that age/size? -
I'm curious about how it works with a little one too! I've only used the moby but I'm looking forward to using the beco- and Dh will use that one too.

@tysonja: no, we always let his legs dangle and he didn't mind at all! He was born in late July, so it seemed important to keep him as cool as possible.

@mrsjazz: How was it with your csection, if you don't mind me asking? I feel great after mine, but I think I'm most nervous to use it too soon after it
-
@sarbear: i wore the carrier higher up near my belly button and that helped. I just couldn't wear her for too long or my back and the incision area would hurt.

I was just going to ask this very question! I can't remember when I first used it with M, but she was a little bit older.
I'd like to use it soon, so I can have M in the stroller!
