I know what I think is the answer (which is no) but I'm being told that it's okay by a few people and now I'm confused. If it is indeed not okay is there a link to explain it better.

I think it's not okay because the harness would thread through the jumper/overall part (with the slit in it).

ETA: to add the right link. Sorry guys!

It asks for a Username

Can you post the picture? To do that you right click on the picture, click properties and then copy the URL Address. Then come back here and click on the yellow icon with the mountain and sun on it (beside the work and paper clip) and paste the address there. That should make the picture show up in your post.

Just to make it easier.

Would I use it? Probably not. Nothing wrong with a blanket IMO. It's hard to tell, but I can't tell whether or not it's very "compressible". And I can't tell whether or not maybe it would bunch up at the crotch strap?

Thanks! Yeah I was worried about the crotch strap being all bunched. I'm trying to talk a friend out of buying something just like it and I was looking for opinions.

I have - but the ones I've used were just a single layer of fleece behind the baby.

It's a bunting bag in denim

I wouldn't use it for a carseat--- too bulky and those over the shoulder straps would possibly interfere with the harness fit. But it's good for strollers.

DD had a cute little polartech fleece bunting bag with the slit. Peter Rabbit & pink -- that her paternal grandmother had sent at her birth. It also had a matching jacket with hood & sleeves that folded over her tiny hands.

She looked so cute in it. But even back then, there was no way ignorant ole me would use it for carseats. She was in a bag and it was very loose around her even when it properly fit in size and without the jacket. Just not safe with all that bulk. It was great for outings in her semi-bassinet style stroller, she'd stay nice and toasty.

I still have it packed away for memories

yeah I think it's too bulky too but I'm having a hard time convincing anyone of that, not that I'm surprised.

Do you use the Fleece coats that were linked awhile back?

Perhaps you could convince them by saying how it's a PITA! So, you're on your way to the grocery store and baby falls asleep in the bucket. Great, take her in the bucket to the store. Now how do you keep her from overheating??? Even if you just open the top by her chest, her whole body will be in the warm bunting. That said, we did use a Columbia fleece suit when we would be outside. I don't think it was too bulky, certainly less than that, but I wasn't as car safety obsessed then. Have you suggested the shower cap style cover? We used that with a blanket, hat and mittens and our babies were never cold.
