Baby Wrap carrier or sling for short people?

Which is a good wrap or sling for short women. I am only 4’11" and I would like to carry my baby in a sling or wrap but not sure which is the right one to buy.

Can you guys recommend any?




I have a coupe (car) and need a sturdy ubrella stoller with a 5-point harness, or a 3-point w/a tray. I have been researching and reading reviews like mad, trying to find a great stroller. Most that I have found, only support upto 35 lbs. I would like to find one that holds upto 50 lbs. Another problem my husband and I are having…is that I’m 5’2" and my husband is 6’2"…we need to find a stoller that has either adjustable handles, or taller ones so he won’t have to hunch.

I know I must be asking a lot for a stroller LOL, but I don’t want to waste money on one I dislike.




Helpp! I don’t know the name of this song!? Its like

"Ill take your car with the baby in the backseat" It sounds like its by theory of a dead man? thanks!




i saw on the news and ga passed a new booster seat law. There are some exemptions from the law like the child being 4’9" or weighing 40lbs. but i get different answers from all the sites.




My son has been forward facing for over a year, but I turned him around *just* to see, since it is the "safest" position, and he looked like he was in the birthing position….




I am 16 years old and my dad has decided to get a new car (mid-life crisis!). I would get his Honda Ridgeline. It’s a great car (NAV, leather seats, low mileage) but I am 6’4" and it’s not comfortable to drive it. If only I could have someone come and move the seat further back then maybe I could use it. I know that it could be expensive but it can’t be more so than trading in and buying another car?

Thanks for any help




We’re both 16, she’s a girl and I’m a guy, if that helps at all. I was in the back seat of a car with her while on the way to pick up her friend to sleep over at her house. She got a text from some guy asking her what she’s doing on friday night. I have a habit of being over protective and I’m wrong for being so. Anyway, I asked a few questions like, "How old is he?" "What grade is he in?" This happend when we were pulling into the driveway of her friend’s house. She said "honestly, thats like the one thing that you do that really annoys me and makes me want to slap you." Along with some other things I can’t recall. She slammed the car door and went into her friend’s house.

I just got dropped off at home, even though she invited me over to hang out with her and her friend. What do I do? She’s never yelled at me before and it really hurt. I know what I did was wrong and that I shouldn’t be that protective. I just don’t know what to do. She got back into the car and acted like she was happy with everything and all, but still. I need advice. Please help?




I am looking for one of those all-purpose carseats out there that "grows" with the baby through toddlerhood and also "snaps out" of its base in the car to become a baby carrier and / or "snaps into" a stroller base from there. Any suggestions about a nice model? There are so many options… it’s overwhelming! I’d love to hear your advice! Thanks for sharing your experience!




I am looking for a double stroller for 2 babies (the same age, so lets say twin) that is less than 28" wide when NOT folded up. I’d also like it to fold up flat and compact. It needs to be light weight yet good quality. Side-by sides are a plus but not necessary. I would like both children to be able to see though! Thanks in advance with any help you can give me!




I bought the car second hand, and it has 76k miles on it. The suspension often makes a loud "popping" noise especially while turning tightly.

I have this new seat for my 6 month old and we going to start using it. I love that it has the full body pad and it says you can use that for when the baby is using the first two harness slots.

My question is. DO you really have to use the full body pad at all? Bc my son gets insanely hot/sweaty already and with that in there..he would roast. Just as long as the straps still go at or below the shoulders and the chest clip is armpit level? Bc I see no where in the instructions that it says YOU HAVE to use it. Would this still be safe? If he was in there for long trips of course I would put it back. But he usually isn’t in there much more than few minutes.

Is it a normal thing for toddler to dig in there diapers? I mean to scratch of course but my son always finds it amusing to dig when he poops. I try and always change him when I noticed he’s went but I was outside for few minutes and came back in and yells "ahh mama! my fingers..my fingers ewww!" It ends up in 30 min of cleaning of his chair,toys and himself lol. Btw he will be 2 on the 31st if that matters
the car seat is a new graco my ride 65 ..




He is 18.8 lbs and 28 inches. Went to look at carseats cause we knew he would outgrow it soon and ended up coming home empty handed, unhappy with the selection at babies-r-us, only to find out his infant seat only goes up to 26" (not 29" like others). Need advice. I would like to have one of the ones that turn sideways allowing you to put the child in easier, but the Zeus by Combi is only rear facing up to 22 lbs, not sure if that will accomidate him long enough. Have also looked at the Orbit toddler seat that has the turn feature. Don’t want to spend too much!




Where to get "GT-R" logo car seat covers?

Title pretty much says all… I am looking for car seat covers with the "GT-R" logo on it. Anyone know where I can find some?




I have a baby boy due in June and through Target registry my Fiance and I had put the Graco Lowery Contemporary High Chair on our registry but within less than a week it is unavailable in the "Lowery" pattern and only the duodiner lowery highchair is available but it has unsafe reviews. Does anyone know why it is unavailable in stores, and online?




I just bought the Graco Stylus travel system. It’s just like the other Graco strollers that recline, with the reclining "bar" in the back. The directions seem to show them pulling on the bar simply for it to recline, but that doesn’t happen with the one I just bought. Nothing happens no matter how hard I pull on the bar. Help!!! I’m going crazy with frustration, lol.
