I have 3 tula's and I absolutely love them. It works well for my baby, and it's still super comfortable for my 22 month old. I really like that I can use it for so long, the weight goes up to 45 pounds I believe. Also, with a tula, you can sell it for pretty much retail or more than retail depending on the print ( and condition you keep it in. ) I would see if your city has a babywearing group with a lending library. There's so many different carriers out there, it's nice to try a couple out and see what really works for you :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189692 Tue, 26 May 2015 15:11:22 +0000 MRSJX3 2189692@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Candy_nee: I highly recommend it! You can have them face in like the ergo/tula as well as forward face. Also, the back support is awesome. I have an infant insert for the ergo but used my k'tan until my baby was older! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189691 Tue, 26 May 2015 15:10:55 +0000 Foodnerd81 2189691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Candy_nee: beco Gemini also faces out. My LO never liked it, but that was a big part of the reason I chose it, in case she did. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189689 Tue, 26 May 2015 15:09:47 +0000 Foodnerd81 2189689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it depends on how long you will really be wearing the baby- which you really won't know until it's here. We had a beco , then borrowed an ergo when c got too tall for the beco. She was tall in the ergo too by it was a little more comfortable. This was at around 20 months and she is on the shorter side. I really wanted a Tula at that point (it was a loooooonnnngggg snowy winter and the carrier was the only way to get around since the sidewalks were too snow covered for strollers). By since she was already so old I hesitated to buy another carrier. If I could I back, knowing how much I did wear her, I'd have gotten the Tula to begin with. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189687 Tue, 26 May 2015 15:09:08 +0000 Candy_nee 2189687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MRSJX3: great suggestion about the lillebaby. If #2 is anything like #1, he will be miserable only facing me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189686 Tue, 26 May 2015 15:07:37 +0000 Candy_nee 2189686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for all the feedback ladies! Maybe I'll just register for both and see which one I get? Then if I don't get either, I can get the Tula on my own. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189642 Tue, 26 May 2015 14:28:17 +0000 MenagerieMama 2189642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been lusting after Tulas but in all reality really love my Ergo. Got it on sale at Target and I really love the front pocket and zip pouch, which the Tula doesn't have (I think it has a small waist pocket?). Love being able to carry a burp cloth, diaper, wallet, phone, etc when we go on walking errands. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189630 Tue, 26 May 2015 14:15:58 +0000 snowjewelz 2189630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have a Tula but have an Ergo 360 and really like it so far! I have a hand me down Becco and I actually like the Ergo better. </p> <p>I def would try a Tula but it's so hard to get really cute ones! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189507 Tue, 26 May 2015 13:10:42 +0000 avivoca 2189507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have an Ergo and we have loved it since H was 2 months old. She's 19.5 months and I'm starting to feel like it's time to invest in a Tula. The shell is really short on us now and I feel like the seat is getting more uncomfortable as time goes on. But we still use it daily. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189502 Tue, 26 May 2015 13:04:43 +0000 MRSJX3 2189502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I absolutely love my Ergo. Can I also suggest you consider a Lillebaby (If you eventually want to face the baby out)? I have one of those and I love it as well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189495 Tue, 26 May 2015 13:00:42 +0000 rachiecakes 2189495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can anyone let you borrow one before you invest?</p> <p>I bought wraps and an Ergo but my baby wasn't snuggly at all and hated the carriers until he was much bigger (6/7 months+). I loved our Ergo but the time I used it was so short-lived (I used it from 6/7 months to 2 years-ish, he was an early walker, but the Ergo made sporting events, festivals, public transportation, etc., easy), I wish I waited for a deal or borrowed one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189484 Tue, 26 May 2015 12:55:11 +0000 Peasinapod 2189484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've not had an ergo so I can't comment on that. But my Tula has been great. We've used it since two months . Bought the infant insert because my baby is teensy so she needed that for awhile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189416 Tue, 26 May 2015 12:07:29 +0000 QBbride 2189416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tula!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189391 Tue, 26 May 2015 11:51:31 +0000 anbanan15 2189391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've had both and MUCH prefer the Tula!!! Although baby will be too small for either as a NB (you can get a NB insert but I wouldn't use it) and I would use a stretchy wrap until LO is big enough. </p> <p>My Tula is a half WC and it is amazing! My 2nd hated every carrier we had until I got the Tula. The Tula is more comfortable than the Ergo and will fit baby longer (wider and higher shell height). I had an Ergo Performance with DS which I loved and used all the time but had I know what a world a difference the Tula was I would have gotten one sooner. We used some other carrier types with DS too (WCRS, WCMT, woven), but I prefer SSC over all of those. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189388 Tue, 26 May 2015 11:50:44 +0000 hocuspocus 2189388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>From what I've heard Tulas are much more comfy/cuter than ergos. I think they are a bit more expensive though. I was gifted an ergo 360 at my shower but haven't used it yet (still waiting for LO to arrive)...so not really helpful lol but if I had a choice I'd go for the tula. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189379 Tue, 26 May 2015 11:48:47 +0000 jetsa 2189379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tula! It will last longer my son outgrew the ergo before a year </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tula-or-ergo#post-2189370 Tue, 26 May 2015 11:46:05 +0000 Candy_nee 2189370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm due with #2 in about 6 weeks. I've looked into both a Tula and an Ergo and am just not sure which way to go. I rarely wore #1, but am thinking I'll wear #2 quite a bit since my first is only 2. I will use a K'Tan around the house I'm thinking. But, I'd like something sturdy and supportive for when we're out and about.<br /> So - which one is best? Tula is cuter and has adorable designs. But which one is really worth the money? </p>
