Have you seen the wraps I make on Facebook? I feel like I need to send you one. Email me :)
Karen - Kindercarry makes several sizes of the Kinderpack carrier and you seem to always be able to choose whether you want petite, standard, or plus-size straps…so I assume that they’re available. We bought used, so I just told the various babywearing forums that I was looking for a preschool-size kinderpack with standard straps (which we assumed would work for both of us) in gender-neutral colors and about a week or two later, this one popped up, barely used at about half retail price. We’re actually trying to locate one with plus-size straps now so that Donald can wear it more comfortably. We’ll see how that search goes!
We’re actually planning to try a few different tandem-wearing options. Charlotte prefers soft-structured buckle carriers like the Ergo and the Kinderpack, but I really love using wraps so we’re thinking about trying out a wrap-conversion mei-tai and different size woven wraps in conjunction with soft-structured carriers. We’ll see how it goes! I’m sure we’ll end up buying a few options, trying them out, then selling off the ones we don’t like or use as the year wears on.
I keep meaning to write more about how breastfeeding through pregnancy with a preschooler is going, and I’ll definitely try to remember to write more about how tandem nursing and tandem babywearing (and those two combined) go! I cannot wait until I give birth and have energy (and no insomnia and no heartburn lol) again!
Katelyn - NO! I have not! I’m sending you an e-mail pronto, lady =)Thanks for sharing! We are starting our first visits with a 2yr old who will be placed with us soon. I really want to carry him as much as possible but he is large - 35lb! This may be a good option for us.
How cute! I should definitely look into a bigger carrier for my 3 year old. I still carry her around half the time, might as well use a carrier to make it easier, lol.
Oh, she’s getting so big! And congrats to you!

Facebook has a swap and a whole nother world of babywearing. (same with cloth diapers) its kind of addicting!
Thank you! I am an avid baby wearer and will be moving on to this stage soon! I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to find a pack to support my toddler. Super pumped to see that you can carrier your little one while very pregnant. You are so strong! This will be me for sure!
P.S.-What is Charlotte’s weight at the time you took this photo? My Boboa toddler weight limit is 45lbs. Just want to compare.
Do you ever get back pain? How often does your wee girl like to be carried? I am wondering if this would be a good purchase for my 2.5 year old son…

This is great to know about! I’ve had to stop carrying Eli at all as with placenta previa (marginal, and may change, fingers crossed) I’m limited carrying to 20 pounds right now. He’s been a trooper but it is a hard adjustment because the boy loves his Ergo. Please, please post how you go about carrying both children when the time comes. Once the baby is born and I’m free to carry what ever weight I’m capable of carrying there may be times when I want to carry both kids. I’m curious what other type of carrier you will use in tandem with the kinderpack and how well they work together… if you can still nurse in the front carrier, etc. This would perhaps be worth us buying even if I don’t carry both of mine together as closing in on 40 lbs Eli alone was taxing me, but my husband could still use it. Does it come with plus-sized straps as an option that you just didn’t buy or would that requite a different sort of carrier?
