Hey ladies i hope everyone is feeling well! I am debating between the ergo carrier vs lillebaby carrier. Anybody have any preferences? I really can't decide! I want a versatile one that hubby can wear too.... Any thoughts?

    Never heard of the second one, but DH and I both liked the ergo!

    I have an ergo, which I like, but now I'm hearing the Tula is even better.

    I just received my lillebaby, it's awesome... And it's supposed to be better for big chested ladies. DH tried it on and it fit him well. I think we will both be happy with it. I got ours on zulily for half price :)

    I have my Moby wrap from DD still, but sold our cheapo backpack carrier & sling, because I didn't like them. I also bought an Ergo and a baby k'tan. I am determined that this baby will let me wear him longer than DD did. :-)

    I felt like the ergo was too cumbersome when I used it a few times for DS. DH did much better with it. I prefer a long piece of fabric that I can do different carry positions with (though I tend to stick with a front carry).

    I've had an ergo, a beco Gemini, a Beco soleil and a boba. I love both my Beco carriers. I just got the soleil for my 18 month old as it has a wider base. I would recommend those above others.

    Perfect. Thanks for your responses. I will check out the ones I haven't heard of and do a little research.

    Is the fabric hard to figure out? I wanted to get a moby wrap but was afraid the baby wouldn't be secure in it... I know people use them all the time but I just didn't know if it felt secure.

    I saw a demo on the moby wrap at a hospital baby fair....that lady showed me how to put it on (much easier than I ever thought) and she said she feels baby is secure enough she could (bit that she ever has it would) do cartwheels. I'm planning to get one as time gets closer!


    Edit: late night spelling error.

    I have the Beco Gemini too! I chose that for DD2 over the Ergo because it had the front facing option and the hip carry. She ended up loving facing forward, so I am so glad I went with the Gemini. I used it from about 2 1/2 weeks old (over 9 pounds) to 2 years old...all very comfortably.

    @priadean‌ I didn't find the fabric one difficult. I did some research online and watched a few videos. I found one video that I thought did a good job actually explaining how to do it for me and practiced with that one. It was nice because I could pause it as I was going while still practicing. I also got to pick my preferred fabric (went with seersucker) and because of its width, I could split it down the middle and actually had 2 wraps for the price of one. Here's the link for what I found most helpful for me. https://www.wrapyourbaby.com/frontwrapcrosscarry.htm

    i hated the ergo with dd.  she was a preemie and even with the infant insert she never felt secure.
