LO is almost 15 months and i can still carry her around in the Ergo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-916603 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 16:06:54 +0000 StrawberryBee 916603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: Thank you! I had placed an order on Zulily, but really wanted the Galaxy Grey. Just snagged one from NBD for just a couple of bucks more :).</p> <p>The purple one on Z was really tempting, but DH may use this as well so I prefer to not be quite so girly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-916477 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 15:22:52 +0000 Mrs. Blue 916477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Even as little as my boys are, it is SO much more comfy to wear them in Ergos than our fabric wrap! I highly recommend them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-916046 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 14:00:48 +0000 lawbee11 916046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: There are a couple of Ergos and a Beco Gemini on NBD today! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-916035 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 13:58:27 +0000 kiddosc 916035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Doooooo it!! :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915999 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 13:50:24 +0000 DillonLion 915999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kiddosc: Gosh they are tormenting me today! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915986 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 13:47:39 +0000 kiddosc 915986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Did you see that they restocked some of them? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915930 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 13:35:15 +0000 abbylyn 915930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just bought the brown/tulip one. Such a good deal! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915913 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 13:32:53 +0000 keiki_mama 915913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tororojo: I agree, the zipper pocket is AWESOME!</p> <p>LO is 15 months/25 lbs and we still use it =). We have an evacuation plan and our trusted Ergo plays an integral part. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915887 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 13:27:29 +0000 tororojo 915887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolutely! I love ours and the sleeping hood is great for blocking sun or wind when you're walking to/from the car or between buildings. There are some on NBD right now, but I don't think for as little as $60.</p> <p>*ETA* And the zipper pocket is awesome--you can put your wallet and keys inside when you run in somewhere for a quick trip and you'll feel so free! The sport model doesn't have that pocket, just FYI. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915865 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 13:24:14 +0000 lamariniere 915865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, go for it! You will probably use it more and more as your child grows older. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915847 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 13:19:44 +0000 DillonLion 915847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@scg00387: Awesome, thanks!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915807 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 13:13:43 +0000 Mrsbells 915807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: It is worth it!!! we still use ours at 14 months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915784 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 13:10:04 +0000 immabeetoo 915784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/98538/rei-ergobaby-baby-carrier-designer-or-organic-80-original-various-style" rel="nofollow">http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/98538/rei-ergobaby-baby-carrier-designer-or-organic-80-original-various-style</a> @highwire not sure which one you were looking at? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915093 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 10:15:02 +0000 lemondrop 915093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!

I'm only in week 15, but it was such a great deal, and I know we'll need it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915022 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:51:48 +0000 anbanan15 915022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Yes! You will still get plenty of use out of it! I still use it now with my 26.5 mo old and 30 lber. It's a lifesaver!</p> <p>ETA: Just saw the cheaper ones sold out. Sometimes they restock though when the sale goes that fast! I would keep an eye on or sign up for the notification when it comes back in stock!</p> <p>I saw these this morning and thought if I didn't already have one.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915015 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:49:27 +0000 immabeetoo 915015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bummer they sold out. My Marshalls had some for the same prices last month, you could check there! or No Better Deal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915014 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:49:12 +0000 DillonLion 915014@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: Thanks for the heads up! I'll probably keep an eye out for when it goes on sale again :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915009 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:47:57 +0000 Foodnerd81 915009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Oh saw it sold out-- keep an eye out and you'll probably see it cheap again-- I've seen it on Gilt every once in a while and occasionally on NBD. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-915004 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:47:12 +0000 Foodnerd81 915004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO isn't even here yet but I say yes! You already know she loves being carried, so you don't have that uncertainty. The only reason i would hesitate is if she prefers facing out-- I opted for the Beco Gemini instead of Ergo in case baby insists on facing out sometimes. But, with that discount the Ergo is half as much so I'd probably go wiht that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-914976 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:41:09 +0000 Weagle 914976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. Do it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-914975 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:41:06 +0000 DillonLion 914975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ha - the ones I was interested in sold out...never mind! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-914973 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:40:44 +0000 littlebittyhouse 914973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YES! At 12mo we still use it a few times a week - life saver! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-914936 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:31:22 +0000 T.H.O.U. 914936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Yes!! Honestly it wasn't until she was mobile around 10 months that I really got my moneys worth out of my Ergo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-914900 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:23:42 +0000 mediagirl 914900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. Miracle carrier.</p> <p>We used ours this past week to carry M to and from the beach! We had our arms free to carry the tent, bags, towels and shoes and she happily went along for the ride! Babies love being carried! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-914896 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:22:57 +0000 twinmama 914896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's an awesome price! I would!</p> <p>We just bought a second set of ergos and our kids are nearly a year. Kids love them and we still use them almost daily, and constantly when we travel. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/should-i-buy-an-ergo#post-914882 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:20:52 +0000 DillonLion 914882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$65 on Zulily today...I'm SO tempted. Worth it? My LO is 7.5 months, loves to be carried, but she's 20 lbs and my fabric wrap carries are not doing the job these days (well they are, but my back begs to differ) </p>
