  • Can you wear LO forward facing in this carrier? I have an Ergo but am thinking about getting an inexpensive forward facing one.

    No, these are for use by facing in toward the wearer either on front or back. I took a class on baby wearing and the teacher said forward facing isn't really recommended in most "baby wearing circles" for any carrier. Supposedly forward facing puts extra strain on the adult. Also baby can't look away from stimulation except by looking down which makes it hard to breathe.

    Ah, good to know. LO likes to face forward in my arms, so I was thinking a carrier like that would be fun for her. But I def don't want one that will be extra strain on me. That is why I got the Ergo. Thanks for the advice!
  • And of course I just bought stuff to make one and my PP funds are too low :(

    Good to know on the forward facing. Tried it on LO a few weeks ago at the farm and she HATED IT. She loves to look around but it must have been too much stim for her.
