Bundle-me in baby carrier?

Pleione

I am thinking of getting a Bundle-Me and was wondering if you thought it was worth it. I would really like to use it with a baby carrier like the Boba 3G (put LO in the JJ Cole Bundle-Me, and then insert into the carrier in the winter) rather than using it just for the car seat/ stroller. Anyone know if it can be used like this?

Ive heard from here, link down below, and other places that the only thing that goes in your carseat that doesnt come with it is your baby.

I live in a snowy place and we are getting a canopy one that goes over the carseat, not behind the baby- like this!

boba?  Are you thinking of wearing the bundle me?  It is big and heavy, dont even consider it!

Beyond what you're looking to use it for, I just want to throw out there that the Bundle Me is not recommended for use in a car seat while traveling in the car (i.e. you can use it when you're using the car seat in the stroller, like for a walk, but not for car travel).

Haha, ok! Thanks - I hadn't seen either a Bundle-Me or a Boba in person, hence the question. Good to know it wouldn't work.

No, that will not fit. The Bundle Me is huge, plus you couldn't get proper positioning with that kind of additional object in the carrier. To keep warm in the winter, most BW mamas I know wear a coat over both baby and mom. A maternity coat (or other large coat) works well for small babies or you can get a BW coat like Suse's Kindercoat that faciliates both front and back carries.

Ditto PP that a Bundle Me isn't a safe choice for a carseat anyway (unless it is the shower-cap kind). Nothing plush should ever go between baby's back and the car seat or baby's front and the car seat straps--this includes Bundle Me's as well as plush winter coats.

Great alternative, thanks - and thanks to PPs for pointing out that a bundle-me wouldn't work otherwise as well.
