When did you

Stop carrying LO's carseat in & out of the car?
Was it due to their weight or the fact that it was just annoying to get in & out of the car?

TIA

    To go in stores I stopped when she was old enough to sit in the shopping cart, so about 6 month. In and out of daycare about 2 months ago, so she was about 15lbs - still manageable weight wise, but most babies are a lot bigger then that by then.

    I don't remember exactly when it was, but it was mainly because it was killing my back to lift the carrier in and out of the car with her in it.

    This! About 5mo. If she's asleep I'll sometimes leave her still. I hate her carrier almost as much as she does.

    It doesn't get any better when you go up to the convertible either.  Sad

    I stopped carrying her in the carrier just recently.  I put her in the moby or bjorn when we go shopping.  SHe would rather be on me and looking around.

    I stopped probably a month ago. She doesn't stay asleep when I move the carrier anyway, and she gets so hot in it. I put her in our ring sling or ergo. It isn't as hot and she likes looking around. The only time it isn't good is if I have to lift something really heavy.

    After like two times of carrying the carseat, I stopped.  I seriously felt like I was going to bust a gut.  I've always just worn her when I have to drive somewhere. 

    Wait... that didn't sound right.  Lemme rephrase. 

    I only use her stroller when I walk or go shopping across the street.  If I actually have to drive somewhere, I put her in her carseat to get there then wear her.

    I still carry him around in it if he is sleeping. I have to change car seats soon. Yesterday I got winded carrying him, he waits 21 lbs plus the car seat, it was just too much.
