Moby or Ergo?

That is the question.... which do you like and why? ?

I have the ergo I love it because its quick and easy to put on.

Both! (Although we dont have those specific brands.)

A stretchy wrap like the Moby is perfect for newborns. I love my SSC (soft-structured carrier) for when they are a bit older/bigger.

Which wrap do you have? I love the idea of a moby but it seems like so much work.

I only have the Bjorn now, which I used for a short time with DS1. ?I've heard that having a good wrap or sling is KEY to surviving 2u2. ?Now I need to know which one I should splurge on!?

I love the Moby! It's not as difficult as you would think. I watched youtube videos to help me learn since I wasn't good with the paper directions.

I actually still use the Moby with my toddler! I use it as a hip hold. When I had a newborn I used it as a cradle hold and now that #2 is a little bigger, I use it as a bjorn hold.

The reason why I love it is that it is versitile and it is a back saver. I tried other carriers and my back would *kill* me. The Moby distributes the weight well and I can go for a long time without my back bothering me.

We have The Ultimate Baby Wrap (bought it from target.com) and also a Gypsy Mama Bali Stretch Wrap

Both! I plan on using a wrap (i'm going to make one) while DD is newborn and then i'll be using the ergo. We love our ergo!

I plan to use the moby at the beginning and then graduate up to the Ergo. That's what worked best with DD.

This for the same reason, except I do own a Moby and Ergo, specifically. I plan to live in my Moby once baby #2 is here. It's the only way I see myself surviving 2u2!

I have the Ergo for DS which I LOVE! I also plan on getting the Moby. I figure with 2u2 I could use every baby wearing device I can get my hands on!

I gotta agree that you need both. The moby is awesome. It's the only way I can get a hands free moment. But the ergo is great for older babies. They are both awesome carriers.

p.s the moby is easy to use once you figure it out. If I can do it, anyone can....lol

Ditto this! Also, I usually put my Moby on in the morning and just leave it on throughout the day. That way, I don't have to mess with it when DD is ready to go it...it's already on.
