baby carriers
Please help, I can't really decide which brand and I need a new one soon. Details, baby is 4.5 months and loves the sling but he is getting too heavy for me so I need a new carrier. For my last two, I received carriers as gifts so I didn't get to pick the brands and they have been donated since we weren't planning #3... I am 5' 6" and about 175lbs (pre-pregnancy this time & after nursing last I was about 160lbs). I was set on the Beco until I started seeing more on this board about other brands. I thought I loved the Boba until I heard about the Kinderpack & Tula. Since I like the look of Boba I started looking into them and noticed they have like 3 different versions!! The Air, G2, G3... so now I'm even more confused.
I live in the city and have a 3yo that most likely will be in a buggy while I carry baby when we walk to park, playdates, etc. I will not be hiking or going on long trips with it, but I would like it to hold up well. I usually try to carry them until about 24 months. Please let me know which carrier would be best. TIA
Re: baby carriers
The best thing to do would be to find a babywearing group near you and go try some on! There's no one best carrier; with buckles in particular, fit varies widely from person to person.
There's a list of groups here: https://www.

Thanks for the link! The one in my area requires joining their FB group, so I'm trying to figure that out. lol
If anyone has any major pros/cons to the brands I listed, please let me know. Although I hope to go try one on soon, I also
