I have the Gemini and the Butterfly. I always go to the Gemini, it's a lot less to deal with than the Butterfly, and I like that the headrest is built in and that you hip carry.
However I like the idea that the Butterfly has the ability to put LO in it first and then put him on. I never use the Butterfly though and do not know if I really see myself going to the Butterfly more than the Gemini when DS get's older.
At this point it is just wrapped up and in the closet, and I hate that I have it and am not really using it.
If you were in my shoes would you keep them both or would you just stick with the one you use always.
Also, if anyone is in the market for a Butterfly let me know, LOL!
Re: Should I keep the Beco Butterfly?
LOL, If you are interested maybe message me at jenna_brown@bellsouth.net or on here and let me know what you would want to pay for it with shipping! ;-) I just can not imagine just letting it stay rolled up. I got it used it maybe 2 times for 10 minutes each then got the Gemini and have used it ever since!
You know DH and I had that conversation about the back carry also. I actually back carried DS when I went to ICE here in orlando, and it went great! DS is still getting used to the carrier in general.
As for the fact that you can put LO in the carrier and then put it on your back, I love that about the butterfly but honestly I told DH I do not see myself backcarrying LO when I am home alone. Meaning if someone is here to help I could just do the gemini and it is possible to get him on my back alone but I don't think I would need to.
As for if I think he will be comfortable in one more than the other when he gets bigger I do not think so I think they would both be good when he is bigger.
I'll message you tonight
