Sun protection in Bjorn??

hgrogers

I have a 2 yr. old DD & girl twins that are 5 months & i want to be able to go for walks with them outside. The only way I think I can do this is with my toddler & one twin in the double stroller & the other twin in my Bjorn carrier. However, I can't figure out how to protect the twin in the Bjorn from sun burn, since my pedi says you can't put sunscreen on them before 6 months.  How do you protect babies from sunburn while carrying them in a carrier (obviously they would overheat in long sleeves/long pants)?

 

p.s. - if anyone has any other ideas of how I can make it work o go out for a walk with all three kids, please feel free to share! TIA

I put a sunhat and babylegs on kiddo - his arms are in the wrap.  He doesn't get too hot but I'm using a thin wrap in a single layer carry.

Yes, definitely a sun hat - but hat about the exposed arms & legs?

My pedi actually told me that I could go ahead and use sunscreen as necessary.  He said any of the products made for babies and kids would be fine.  Of course he said shade and clothing were the best route, but in the pool around the reflective water and things he definitely supports using the sunscreen.

my pedi said the same thing about sunscreen..we use aveeno baby and it has worked great.

Will the 2 yo walk along side you? I have a 10 wk old and a almost 3 year old. She prefers to walk then be in the stroller.

Can't trust the 2 yr. old to walk yet, unfortunately...

My pedi said sunscreen was OK if necessary.

Also, I saw a woman walking with this amazing stroller the other day.  It was a double stroller and then had a seat that hooked on the front and was raised (almost like a second level bleacher) for her third child.  I'm not sure if this could hook onto any stroller or if it was just an accessory for hers.
