Fortunately the only one we bought at full price was the Ergo, the rest were gifts or from the used kids stores. I definitely recommend checking the used stores for carriers, I got most for around $10!!</p> <p>Moby and Infantino for when he was tiny. A Hot Sling and a 7 Sling until he was almost a year, then I broke down and got the Ergo and haven't looked back (once he hit 20 pounds, it was the only one that didn't killed my back!) Wish I had gotten it sooner!</p> <p>We also have an Evenflo framed backpack since he was 6 months for hiking. My MIL and I found it at a used kid store for $30! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-carriers-do-you-have/page/2#post-775893 Sun, 12 May 2013 00:45:53 +0000 mrsjazz 775893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rrachael: If you continue to babywear you can get the toddler carrier.

Mr Hedgie has an Infantino, I have a sling and a Bjorn. I got the Bjorn and Infantino for $10 each practically brand new at a consignment sale and the sling was "free". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-carriers-do-you-have/page/2#post-775839 Sat, 11 May 2013 23:06:02 +0000 BlueWolverine 775839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Four. Bjorn, K'tan, pouch sling and Ergo. Wish I would have introduced the K'tan earlier - she didn't like it by the time I did. Pouch sling is a hand me down and I like it. She's getting to big for the baby position but not ready for no head support. We tried out the Ergo today - she dug it.! Very excited. It's going to get hot this summer though, so we'll see. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-carriers-do-you-have/page/2#post-775827 Sat, 11 May 2013 22:57:21 +0000 rrachael 775827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have 5 but only use 2 right now ... 1) a hand me down Bjorn that I only used twice before learning of the hip issues ~ 2) an ergo, dh uses it all the time 3) a borrowed moby, which I loved while dd was under 10ish lbs, 4) a zolo ring sling ... people love it but I just can't get the hang of it and 5) a babyhawk mei tai, which is my carrier of choice right now!</p> <p>@pastemoo: @mrsjazz: I want a Tula so badly!

A Moby knock-off that I love for the newborn stage and a BabyHawk mei tai that I also really love for when they're older. But carriers are addictive like cloth diapers and you're always wanting to try MOOOOOAR, lol. The next on my wish list is the Beco Butterfly II. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-carriers-do-you-have/page/2#post-772818 Fri, 10 May 2013 08:39:25 +0000 mrsjyw 772818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we bought an ergo, got the 7s sling for "free"</p> <p>and were gifted a podaegi and a moby wrap</p> <p>used the moby wrap once or twice, ergo we use and expect to be our main carrier, and podaegi we'll use when he's a lil bit older. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-carriers-do-you-have/page/2#post-772808 Fri, 10 May 2013 08:36:02 +0000 PurpleUnicorn 772808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 - bjorn that i used a lot for 5 months, now i upgraded to the Beco gemini which i use even more.
