I loved mine! I quit wearing Will in it around 20-22 months because he wanted to walk - we did back carries, mostly. He's a big guy too - 29lbs and 35in, so it lasted a long time for us! It was cool in the summer and never hurt my back either.
it was definitely better than the other carriers--for me. dh could use any of them, but he has good upper body strength. my back felt so much better in the ergo. but for me, it was a little warm, but my boobs were dolly parton-like and t was a huge baby, so that may not be the case for everyone. i wore her while walking on the treadmill, too i did not wear her very long--maybe a few months, but again, my boobs hurt alot. i cannot imagine wearing her til 20 months--libbyann, you are a strong woman!!
Coming in late... but we love our Ergo! It's the only carrier that we have and I use it all the time. I always keep it in the car so I know I have it with me.
I'm not a fan of SSC's in general, but Ergo's are good.
What she said. I have a hard time getting a good fit with any SSC, but I know I'm in the minority. You can always resell it on thebabywearer.com for darn close to what you paid if it didn't work out. I resold mine for $10 less than I paid, which was just shipping.
