I actually used it with my daughter all the way up to the weight limit because we both preferred it! It is closer and more natural feeling than having her in the Ergo, I have to use Ergo now because she is so big, but I wore her until she literally hit the weight limit, which was about 1 year old for us. It's much easier and cozier to sit down with than the bigger, more structured carriers, more discreet to nurse in and she sleeps better in it than the other kinds... clearly I'm a huge fan, but it's seriously great!”
