You can start using the Cococho carrier in front from birth once your infant weighs 7 pounds (3.2 kilos), and carry your baby on the back once they weigh 13.5 pounds
(6.1 kilos) and already gained firm head and neck control.
Our carrier allows for an early stage for back carrying as it is designed to sit high on the parent's back, supports the baby before being loaded, provides built-in head support while the baby is both awake or asleep, and includes separate adjustment for the baby's space inside the carrier which reduces the potential of the baby slumping down in the carrier.
With the Cococho carrier, the maximum weight to carry a baby in the front is 26.5 pounds (12 kilos) because carrying this weight in the front with any carrier puts an excessive strain on the adult's back. We recommend switching to back carrying even before the baby reaches this weight.
The maximum weight to back carry your baby with the Cococho
carrier is 40 pounds (18 kilos). That is usually the weight of toddlers between
3 and 4 years or older.
