We used to sell the sidecar cribs when I worked at Babies "R" Us. They're glorified bassinets; they're only safe to 20 pounds. Really doesn't work for the attachment parenting ideal.

The non-mini is good up to 30 pounds.

It would seem that 30 pounds is a fine parameter...but there are a lot of obese babies out there. Does breastfeeding always eliminate this issue?

Scenarios like this are really common. Walk around a Babies "R" Us or a toy store, and look at the size of the babies you see. If it seems a viable option, ask the parents what the baby's age and weight are. The answers will likely be surprising.
