Our patent-pending support belt makes it easier to carry heavier babies and toddlers. It is compatible with the pikkolo carrier as well as our mei tai (and most brand mei tais).You simply thread your carrier through the belt and leave on for a more traditional padded SSC-style waistband. You may wish to add the belt when your baby reaches 20+ lbs. We recommend placing the belt on and leaving it, not switching it on and off frequently. THIS IS A BELT ONLY, NOT A CARRIER. MUST BE USED IN COMBINATION WITH THE PIKKOLO CARRIER OR A MEI TAI CARRIER. Made By: Catbird Baby Made Of: 100% Cotton

I good investment
I highly recommend this for the Pikkolo baby carrier. I use this with my Pikkolo and it really helps take the pressure off of my shoulders. The only problem I have with it is that I'm short (5'2") and it takes a little for me to get it adjusted comfortably on me. But I think if I was a little taller it wouldn't be a problem.

Go for another SSC with pad when babies get heavy
I was excited to get it, but it slips and doesn't hold the actual carrier together well. I'd rather use a SSC with a bottom pad attached (Tula, ergo) when little ones get bigger.

Under 5' tall and I love it
I researched carriers for short women and I'm so glad I found this. I'm 4'10'' and it works very well. I like the side carry position, but can't wait to try the back carrying position when my toddler is bigger (she's 15 mo and approx 20lbs 10% weight). It's pretty easy to use and adjust. I purchased the support belt as well, but haven't felt the need to use it yet.

Worth it!
I got the support belt a little hesitantly but based on reviews that raved about it for use with a toddler. I agree. Improves the fit, the comfort, and doesn't add too much to the bulk - I can still fold the Pikkolo up and put it in my roomy diaper bag.

Must-have with your Pikkolo!
Bought this for my Pikkolo when baby was 15 lbs. Makes carrying baby so much easier and wish I had attached it sooner! With baby #2 on the way, we will use this from day 1 this time. It really takes a lot of pressure off your back! Washes well.

Must Have For Your Pikkolo
The baby wearing belt works great! I wish I had ordered it earlier. It evenly distributes the weight on your hips and takes the strain off your shoulders. I would recommend both the belt and the Catbird Pikkolo carrier to anyone.

Used this with our first kid who LOVED IT! second kid loves the ergo 360, which is much more comfortable for the parent.
