as long as the baby is facing forward they will allowed at Winnie the Pooh, Peter Pan, It's a Small world, Pirates of the caribbean, Jungle Cruise, Kilimanjaro safaris, Haunted Mansion, Voyage of the Little Mermaid, Nemo, all those will let the baby ride with or without the carrier but for sure the baby must face forward when riding, as with many other "Rules" it will depends on the child size, the cast members and the type of carrier
and I believe you, there are rules but they aren't implemented consistently.Actually I've taken my kids on all of those - as well as Buzz Lightyear and TSMM, in a front carrier facing INWARD (we have a boba, there is no forward facing on the front option). Never an issue.
As the poster above says, implementation is not consistent.
On our trip in 2014, my wife wore our 8-month-old (at the time) in an ergo, inward-facing, on TSMM, because he was napping. We had no problem. The baby napped while the rest of us had a great time.
Three days later, exact same scenario with the baby napping in the ergo, but this time the CM would NOT let her ride while the baby was inward-facing. They stopped all the vehicles and made her remove him. Of course, he started screaming like crazy when we woke him up in the middle of his nap. I took him, while my wife took our older kid. They made him sit next to me on the ride -- I couldn't even hold him. He screamed the entire ride. Not fun.
We also had to take the baby out on Jungle Cruise, which made no sense. But that was not so bad, because he had already napped for awhile and was already waking up. I remember he rode inward-facing in the ergo in many other rides, including Winnie the Pooh and Astro Orbitor, and the CMs didn't say anything.
It's hard to do WDW touring plans when you have a baby who still takes long morning naps.
My Mei Tai is my favorite carrier of all time, I think, followed closely by my ring sling.Does anyone else find the Lillebaby or Ergo difficult to sit down with a child in it? I have a 6 month old/18 lbs and when I try and sit down with her, I really can't! The waist belt is so hard and wide it keeps baby from "sitting" on my lap. Just to add I'm a size 14/16, so maybe that's the problem! Lol... any recommendations on a carrier that's "comfortable" to sit on the rides without taking them out??

Yes! I have an Ergo 360 and couldn't ever sit with my baby strapped to my front (and I'm a size 2, so I don't think that has anything to do with it).
He's almost 18 months old and weighs about 30 lbs now. He prefers to walk and also likes the stroller. I never really got the hang of babywearing, but I think those days are behind us at this point!

I used my ring sling, hip carry, ALL.THE.TIME for that whole arm-giving-out thing. I have giant children, and it was a lifesaver.I have a mei tai, maybe I need to practice with it more! I'm just finding that the more structured carriers are hard to sit with. My main reason for the carrier is to be able to wear my 1 year old while helping 3 year old on the bus/boats while hubby handles the double stroller. If I can't sit down with the baby in carrier, it really does me no good and I'd be better off just holding her on my hip and pray my arm doesn't give out! Lol
Which ring sling do you use??I used my ring sling, hip carry, ALL.THE.TIME for that whole arm-giving-out thing. I have giant children, and it was a lifesaver.
I have a Zolowear.Which ring sling do you use??
Thanks! I'm going to check that one outI have a Zolowear.
