Baby Carrier

Which one do you recommend and why?  I have a moby, but I wonder if there's something else people recommend.

Re: Baby Carrier

  • I know a lot of people love the Ergo and Baby Hawk Mei Tai, both of which I'll be getting for baby #2 when the time comes based off of many recommendations.

  • What exactly are you looking for in a carrier?

    I have a moby, a woven and a babyhawk ohsnap. They all serve different purposes though. I use the hawk the most these days. It is similar to the Ergo, but you get to custom design it and pick your own fabric.

  • I got a Baby Hawk based on KBaby's recommendation.  I love it but definitely should have gone with the Oh Snap version.  I still go back and forth about getting another one and leaving my original in DH's car if we are out and about with his car.

  • I have a Moby and it worked out great in the beginning with breastfeeding.  Then I would use it on walks.  I didn't really use the wrap after 3 months.  He would rather be on the ground than in the wrap.  Laura&Justin and J&R had tons of info on most of the wraps available.  I'll see if I can find the old post for you

  • I used to know all about carriers but my DD never really liked them after 4 months so I kind of forgot all my info lol

    I have a moby and Ktan and Lexi loved those both for the first few months. The K'tan is a lot better for the summer/fall months b/c it doesn't have as much fabric as the moby.

    I have an ergo and love it but Lexi only went in it maybe 10 times. She doesn't like to be in carriers.

    I had a love/hate relationship with the bjorn. It hurt my back after awhile but I got the wrong style. 

    The babyhawk was on my wishlist but I never got it.

  • Loved the Moby with a newborn, used the Ergo pretty much every day until my son started walking. I still use the Ergo from time to time in the back carry.

    I do recommend the Ergo. It is a great carrier.

  • I love my Ergo.  I didn't buy it until a few months ago, and wished I had sprung for it sooner.  But she's almost 9 months now and I can still carry her comfortably in it.  I found a deal on a used one on eBay.  Yay!

     

  • I have a Moby (couldn't use it at all), a Maya Wrap (reasonably comfortable and easy to put on, but still can't do hands-free), and a Beco Butterfly II (similar to Ergo, but cuter, IMHO, and pretty comfy for my nearly-three-month-old son).
