I use it more than my stroller. As a working mom its great for the weekends when I still want to snuggle with her but we have to be out running errands. I still feel very connected to her and spend lots of bonding time with her so close. I find it really easy to put her in and out of it especially once she was a bit older. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214923 Mon, 09 Jul 2012 06:18:20 +0000 autumnlove 214923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have an Ergo that we both love! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214922 Mon, 09 Jul 2012 06:11:04 +0000 pelikila 214922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For little babies I really like ring slings and prefer the HAVA sling. For an older child I like the Boba 3G. Both my husband and I wear my son in the Boba with no issue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214921 Mon, 09 Jul 2012 06:04:34 +0000 mediagirl 214921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the Ergo. What I like is that while my 6'3 250lb husband can wear it, I'm 5'7 160 and I can wear it, too. I've been wearing her around the house when she's fussy. It's fantastic! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214920 Mon, 09 Jul 2012 05:58:57 +0000 MegWag 214920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a Babasling and love it. LO is only 4 mos, but it is still working well and is supposed to work through toddlerhood. It is a sling style, but there is a good amount of padding so it's pretty comfortable as long as it's properly adjusted. I love that I can put our son in a variety of positions and that it's simple (no tying or fussy straps). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214886 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 23:30:06 +0000 skibobrown 214886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the Ergo and the Moby. I love them both, although I prefer the Ergo now that baby is a bit bigger and doesn't need the Ergo infant insert anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214876 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 22:59:24 +0000 owlmom 214876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the ergo. We baby wear a lot, and DH and I both find the ergo comfy for extended wearing. LO is always happy in it, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214866 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 22:07:11 +0000 Freckles 214866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The ergo is great, and was definitely a godsend when trying to get the LO to fall asleep. Just note that your baby can heat up while in the infant insert. Mine got the worst heat rash when she was 6 weeks because her head was inside the insert. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214855 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 21:21:34 +0000 brownie 214855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did the moby when he was really little. Then we bought a Beco Gemini because he liked facing out. I've used an ergo with my sisters 3 year old and love that as well. I think once you get to the boba, Beco, ergo level it because fit and preference. There is an online place that will let you try them out but I don't know what it is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214847 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 21:02:11 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 214847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am pretty much obsessed with my Moby. It is sooooo comfy, so easy to transport, and pretty easy to use. I have worn it for 7 hours and it did not get uncomfortable at all. Highly recommend it! We also have a bjorn and HUBBY will wear is occasionally because he thinks the moby is girly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214840 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 20:41:07 +0000 duckduckkristen 214840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 2 months old and I have a baby hawk mei tai. I love that you can pick from lots of different fabrics and it's easy to fold up and put in the diaper bag. It's also very comfy and I started using it from the time LO was a week old and you can use it for an older baby too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214836 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 20:36:09 +0000 littlek 214836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the Gemini and the moby. I like both. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214821 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 19:56:05 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 214821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We babywear a ton and very much love the ergo. I did a pouch sling and a peapod snugglewrap (like the moby) with Toddler Girl before she got into the ergo and didn't really like either of them. The sling is hard on the shoulders and the wrap was just to annoying to get in and out of (my husband never once used it). With Wonder Baby we used the Ergo and the infant insert. The insert was a bit bulky, but she loved it and my back thanked me for it. I think all the well known soft structured carriers are good though, it's a matter of preference. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214806 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 19:40:49 +0000 mrsjyw 214806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Added the ergo on our registry due to glowing recommendations by HB and in real life friends. </p> <p>We also want to get a k'tan, I heard it's an easier version of the Moby wrap.</p> <p>My grandma's bringing us a podaegi (korean baby wearing wrap) from Korea too </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214803 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 19:39:47 +0000 chopsuey 214803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>love our ergo! used it past a year and still use it occasionally. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214793 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 19:25:07 +0000 matador84 214793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been researching carriers also, and the ergo reviews on amazon blew me away how positive they are. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214780 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 19:04:51 +0000 Sammyfab 214780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used the moby when LO was younger and I found it soooo comfortable.</p> <p>We tried an ergo but both DH and I found it uncomfortable and the shoulder straps would always slide down and we could never adjust it properly so the straps would stay up. LO loved it though.</p> <p>Now we use a pognae and we love it. The only downside is LO can't face out (but we also have a baby bjorn for that). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214770 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 18:41:10 +0000 prettylizy 214770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have both the Ergo and the moby wrap, I love them both for different reasons. The moby is awesome to throw in the car or take along when I don't have much space, but for really long baby wearing stints, I find she tends to wiggle it loose after a while. The ergo is super comfy, and DH likes wearing it (he finds the moby a little girly) and its great for longer trips and naps. The only downside to the ergo is it gets a little warm compared to the moby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-recommendations#post-214767 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 18:37:36 +0000 X0X0X0 214767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm looking into buying a baby carrier. My baby is only a month so im looking for something that can be used for at least a year. I'm wondering which have you purchased and/or prefer? Your opinions are greatly appreciated! </p>
