  I'd be more concerned about the effects that carrier will have on baby's hips and your back, and look at carriers like the Moby, K'tan, Ergo, Beco, or Boba instead.

  I agree with all of this.

  This doesn't answer my question, but thanks for your opinions.

  The specifications and requirements are there for a reason. I wouldn't use it until your baby meets those requirements. If you really to carry your baby you should use a sling or another carrier for the mean time.

  I don't think anything disastrous would happen if you tried the carrier now, but in my experience, my babies weren't comfy in the carrier until they were a little bigger and less floppy. Also, FWIW, I did love the Bjorn for both of my chidren until they got too heavy for my shoulders. And all of their hips are fine

   We asked a pediatric orthopedic surgeon specializing in hip injuries about the bjorn and he said as long as the baby isn't in it 24/7 there's no issues with using it.  He used it for all 3 of his children and loved it.

  My kids were both small and we waited until they were 8 lbs. before we put them in the Bjorn. My DD was 2 months old before we could use it.
