Mothercare Turnabout Front Carrier

I bought this just befor I had my 3rd child.To be honest I never fancied one with my other 2 but with them being only 4and 2 I thought it maybe handy as i would have my hands free.I think it was the biggest waste of money I have spent.I choose it really because it was one of the cheapest and I knew i wouldn't use it that many times but thought with it being a mothercare make it would be ok. The first time I went to use it my son was about 2 weeks old but to be honest I just didn't feel safe with him in it-he didn't seem at all supported and I had to still keep my hands on him to stop him falling backwards.So I decided to leave it for a while to see if it ...  Read the complete review

After putting both my children in the mothercare turnabout sling, I have resolved to never put another child in it! Although cheap, it is definatley not cheerful!, it is hard to put on and the back support is terrible, my poor babies heads were lolling around all over the place. The baby is not held close enough to the wearer. It is not just uncomfortable for the baby but also for the wearer, after just a few minutes I got terrible neck, shoulder and backache, on one occasion it made me feel quite faint. Only suitable for occasional use whilst your baby is tiny! ...  Read the complete review

I bought the Mothercare Turnabout carrier baby sling initially because I was strapped for cash, however it was a false economy. Initially it was OK when my son was very small, but I soon found that it was not very good as he got bigger. When I was carrying my son in it, I found that the velcro side staps which are supposed to secure the baby kept coming open which is highly dangerous. Unless I had my arm around my son, he kept leaning away from my body in a dangerous, uncomfortable manner and there was no safety strap round the top to keep the baby held in, only the velcro side straps which kept coming undone. I had to use an additional luggage strap to try to keep my ...  Read the complete review

I bought the mothercare turnabout baby carrier just before my son was born. the reasons i chose it was because it was a nice cheap price and being a single mum i thought it would save me a bit of money to not buy the more expensive carriers. also it looked good on the box and said it had a sturdy, safe design. When my son came along a month or so later i tried it out and couldnt get the hang of it for the life of me so of i toddled with the pram to town. i waited a few weeks then tried it yet again, i managed to get my son secure in it this time but when he decided to sleep he looked really uncomfy, there are no side supports for babies to sleep safely and comfy enough. ...  Read the complete review

Mother care turnabout baby carriers are very good. Not only can the mother carry the baby but dads can too. They hold your baby close to you so your baby feels safe and secure but at the same time you have your hands free to do things that you need to do. They have straps that go over and under your arms and have a clip on the back (like the one?s in pushchairs) that fastens securely around your back. They are blue in colour, have a detachable headrest and you can turn it round so your baby is facing forward and also a little detachable bib that can be taken off and washed. When shopping or out and about these are a god send. You can hold your baby ...  Read the complete review
