Baby Carrier Suggestion for #2...

Hi,

I've been doing some research by I'm also open to suggestions.

I LOVED the feel of the Moby but I hated having to tie it on.  I was always too slow.  I'd like one that mimics the Moby but without needing to be tied on.

I was looking at the baby k'tan... pros and cons?  Does it have buckles? 

Also, I see the beco gemini on here a lot.  Pros and cons?  Does that one buckle? 

I have an ergo but I don't like the idea of a structured carrier for an infant. 

Thanks in advance for suggestions!

  • I have a Ktan and it is really quick and easy to use no buckles or long fabrics to tie. As pp said sizing is important. I called the company for sizing help.

  • I think the k'tan is what you probably want then for the newborn stage - size down as they run big and stretch out quite a lot.  If you are interested in other options, I have pros and cons of various types of carriers with some brands in my siggy link.
  • The k'tan is awesome. I thought I was squarely a medium, but it stretches so much with use that I have to wash it frequently to keep it shrunk down enough. I could see myself using a small next time around. Definitely consider sizing down.

  • Thank you all, this was VERY helpful... Ordering the K'Tan for next time.  Do you know if babysteals ever has them?
