No pain from 3 hour hikes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1093986 Wed, 18 Sep 2013 06:16:27 +0000 ValentineMommy 1093986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear DS daily....he's a BIG kid. He's 7 months and 21 pounds. I play to wear him as long as possible. He loves it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1093920 Wed, 18 Sep 2013 02:23:58 +0000 lamariniere 1093920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are also in a city with no car. I started wearing him a lot less when he turned 2, he was just way too heavy, so we rely mostly on the stroller (he's now 2.5). DH sometimes back wears him when we go out and don't want to bother with the stroller. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1093710 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 21:34:32 +0000 gracecat 1093710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ah maybe I need to try wearing her on my back now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1093708 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 21:33:53 +0000 gracecat 1093708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks I guess the upper end is about two years which seemed about right... It's just that she is nine months and already 22 pounds so I am dyyyyyying..... Poor girl loves to be held though, and I want to but it's physically just too hard now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1088271 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 14:21:32 +0000 pregnantbee 1088271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I still use the front carry at almost 15 months and approx 23 lbs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1088253 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 14:00:35 +0000 looch 1088253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I stopped at around age 2, my son really just wanted to walk and I followed his lead. He was probably around 25 pounds at that point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1088250 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 13:58:31 +0000 brownie 1088250@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We front carried until we weaned at 2 years old and every day as we walk to school, I put him in the beco on my back. He is 2 1/2 and 25 pounds. I will continue as long as he can. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1088219 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 13:24:28 +0000 anewme 1088219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is 10 mths and almost 24lbs, some days he eats like he has 3 stomachs. I still wear him in the ergo although very rarely in the front anymore. I usually wear him on my back if he's fussy and wants to knock out. The ergo has been one of the most used items in my house, I only wish they could front face! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1088184 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 12:16:32 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 1088184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My older one is 27 months and almost 27 lbs and we still use it sometimes, mostly in crowded places, but generally he would rather walk. It's been in gradual decline since he was 18 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1088152 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 11:16:39 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1088152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Confetti: I still stress about her being 25 lbs and 3.5 yrs,though. Yesterday in ballet class, she was the smallest kid by at least half a head-- keeping up and doing great, but so so small. It was a moment of deep mixed feelings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1088139 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 11:00:57 +0000 lovehoneybee 1088139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear him occasionally at 13m/25lbs, but not daily, usually only when he's really clingy/cranky. He prefers the stroller/walking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1088126 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 10:40:50 +0000 Mrs. Confetti 1088126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Still going strong daily, still in front carry mostly, at 15.5 (I guess almost 16) months. I love my Ergo, especially for quick trips around the block with the dog. </p> <p>Side note - jealous of the mamas of 2 and 3 year olds that weigh 25 lbs. C already weighs that much now...he will be a beast by the time he's 2 or 3. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1088124 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 10:39:38 +0000 lemondrop 1088124@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We still Ergo at 20 months and 25 pounds. Not as often since he can walk well, but there are still plenty of situations where we use it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1088112 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 10:18:45 +0000 Navy_Mommy 1088112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have an ergo but an assortment of other carriers and DS is still worn in one on a daily basis at almost 18 months. We just like wearing him over dealing with a stroller. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1088060 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 09:40:56 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1088060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter is 3.5 and 25 lbs. We still use it, but most of the time she'd rather walk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1088049 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 09:30:23 +0000 SAHM0811 1088049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I still babywear my 2 yo (26 months) sometimes! We have a Beco Gemini which is similar to the Ergo. She's 25-ish lbs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1087862 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 01:41:43 +0000 Ree723 1087862@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is nearly 15 months and I've been carrying her around in the Ergo all morning (in the front carry so she would sleep). Now that I'm 20 weeks pregnant though, it's starting to be a bit much on my lower back. I foresee us using it in the back carry for a while to come yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-ergo-your-baby#post-1087851 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 00:38:53 +0000 gracecat 1087851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How old was LO when you stopped carrying them around in the Ergo? This is more for big city bees as I basically have to have my stroller and Ergo with me at all times since we rely on trains and public transportation exclusively. Baby is heaaaavy!!! </p>
