What's your favorite forward-facing carrier?

My little guy lived in his Ergo for a while but these days he prefers to face out. I've tried the side/back configurations on it, and neither keeps him happy for more than 10 minutes. If you have a carrier that faces out/forward can you recommend it? Thanks!

    I have the baby bjorn.  It's not as comfortable as the Ergo, but I think Hannah may like it more and it's much easier to put on.  Oh, and cheaper :)

    I do not have a forward-facing carrier due to the articles I have seen that indicate that this position is not in the best interests of babe.  This is one of the articles:  https://www.bobafamily.com/blog/2011/10/11/nine-reasons-not-to-carry-your-baby-facing-out/ 

    That being said, the Beco Gemini and the CatbirdBaby Pikkolo can be used as a forward-facing carrier.  I don't have an opinion on either, but this website gives a great comparative chart for various carriers.

    I have the Beco Gemini and love it.  My daughter seems happy in there and she isn't just supported by her crotch.  She basically just sitting in it which I think is good.  We love this carrier!  I also have a K'Tan which is great too just depending on what type of thing you are looking for.

    I don't know how you feel about wraps, but I love my Moby. There are so many ways to wear your LO with it that I'm sure she'd enjoy one of them.

    shoot. I just lent my moby out to a friend who is expecting. It was never as comfortable as my ergo. :/
