I am with Suse....I would probably recommend the OH Snap! for you instead of the pikkolo. It is more suited to larger persons than the pikkolo. Do your chilkdren tend to be towards the tall end of the scale? If so definitely go the Oh Snap.....if you have shortarse kidlets the pikkolo would be okay but the lifepsan of it will not be as long as the bigger bodied Oh Snap. Especially seeing as your youngest is no longer a newborn I would tend to go for the carrier that is going to last trhe longest. I also got an Oh Snap in the order and I am very impressed with them so far....obviously Connor is too small for yet but the trials of it I have done have impressed me. The pikkolo is great for me at the moment as I am only 5' 2" and Connor is a newborn still but I can see it is going to be limited body length wise as he grows.

The babyhawk meitai is also good as the straps allow you to get the weight distribution right where you want it across the back...another meitai I would recommend for you is the Kozy MeiTai...have a look at them...they are great for people who are taller and/or a bit larger or broad shoulders and have a very generous body size to the carriers which suits older babies.

If it were me and I was your size with babies of your ages and I was going to get two carriers I would be going for a Kozy Mei Tai and an Oh Snap! SSC....just my two cents worth...

partyof five...I sell babyhawks.....you can also get them from upplease....we tend to have different designs so thsoe two sites should give a few to choose from....
