According to the WAHM's website, the recommended weight limit is 40 lbs.

I carry my 21 mth old dd in it, she is over 20 lbs. HTH!

I actually have a Kozy. . . .I have pics but photobucket isn't working right now.

I believe the weight limit is the same for the hip carrier and the mei tai. The Hip carrier panel and fabric is the same for the MT as the Hip Carrier but just one shoulder strap.

As for the weight on one shoulder, I would imagine it would be the same as any sling, pouch, hip carrier that is a one shoulder carrier. (I think those have 35 lbs weight limits). I wouldn't use a one shoulder carrier if I was going to wear my daughter for really long time but its great for quick trips and frequent up and downs (which my toddler is very fond of). I like this meitai/ring sling hybrid carrier alot since it cups the shoulder and doesn't ride up towards the neck like I have seen on some commercial hip carriers.

Only reason I'm looking to sell or trade is I just ordered another two new carriers for hip carries that I've been wanting to try
