    The first time I read this, I thought "What do priests need diaper bags for?"
    Okay, different type of father.

    I'll second Cavscout's concerns with the second idea. While I have seen fannypacks/bumbags and backpacks where the load is borne on the hips instead of the shoulders, the weight is being carried behind you.
    Combining your sporran idea with a wide kilt belt/back brace might work a little better ...

    My plan was not hip straps for the baby sporran, but an X harness made out of nylon straps.

    It is probably not a good idea, but it is an idea.

    Maybe. Maybe higher. But it would look like a giant sporran.

    Would the baby make it a full mask sporran?

    If mine were the size to still stuff in one, I'd consider.

    Not to hijack too much, but here is a link about dad's in kilts http://daddytypes.com/2005/05/21/the...s_in_kilts.php

    I think it's a great idea, Dread - just have to work out the "kicking risk" part of it! (The sporran look concept is great!!!)
