I haven't used it outward facing because I also have a lillebaby that I don't like as much. I would check out the catbird! I am going to only wear olive in facing because they're much heavier outward facing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-outward-facing-carrier#post-230312 Sun, 22 Jul 2012 14:32:49 +0000 Weagle 230312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The Ergo can also be used on your hip. Maybe your LO would like that and you can save the money! Though, if your anything like me, getting to buy a new carrier is way too enticing :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-outward-facing-carrier#post-230291 Sun, 22 Jul 2012 13:54:39 +0000 HLK208 230291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also have a beco but it's the Gemini and baby needs full head support to face outward so I haven't tried it yet (DD is 6 weeks old). But you can also wear it on your hip and back--which a family member tried her daughter in my carrier and she loved it! So I just thought I would share :) DD loves the carrier facing inward and it's the only way I can get shopping and cleaning done! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-outward-facing-carrier#post-230282 Sun, 22 Jul 2012 13:36:49 +0000 BeachMama 230282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee- I didn't think the Butterfly 2 was outward facing? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-outward-facing-carrier#post-230243 Sun, 22 Jul 2012 12:48:48 +0000 Mrs. Bee 230243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got a beco butterfly II and really like it! Another good forward facing is the catbird pikkolo (i've heard but haven't tried). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-outward-facing-carrier#post-230198 Sun, 22 Jul 2012 11:41:11 +0000 BeachMama 230198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know they aren't really recommended due to spine/hip considerations but LO really likes to look around and fusses in the Ergo if she's not sleepy. Does anyone use an outward facing carrier? Any recommendations? </p>
