she is not a little baby anymore (all 18lbs) and with my sciatica i have to be very careful to make sure that my back is not strained.
love the product..how you can change positions without removing baby and harness for various purposes...how daddy can wear it comfortably, too; how well it is made.
after reading many online reviews, asking other baby-wearers, and trying four other baby carriers, it is my opinion that the ergo is the best carrier for my baby and for me.
wearing a baby, or carrying a baby in a whatever device or strap or piece of inorganic or organic fabric is also suppose to be functional and comfortable.
i tried several carriers (including the baby bjorn) and my baby hate them all.
breathable fabric cons: a little on the pricey side the bottom line: a great product to use to carry your baby.
the only reason i gave it 4 stars is becuase it is a little difficult to manuever baby in and out.
the adjustments are easy to make and the product, once you get the hang of it, is easy to use with baby.
this product keeps both the baby and the wearer cool and comfortable.
i used to have one of the original baby bjorn carriers with the snaps, but the new design of this one makes it much easier!
as for the product itself, yes it looks strong enough for a baby to be held up right without having him/her look as if she is ready to fall out like cheap brands.
we even took it on a 3-hour hike once and our baby was so comfortable and slept the whole time.
i have used it for shopping hands free, for hiking with the baby, and for getting things done around the house.
i recieved the bjorn as a gift and it is one of the most benifical product in my collection of baby essentials.
this is a great product i used it with both of my kids and have it stored for baby number three.
the 'active' part of this carrier is extra back support and a nice feature but i was unsure how much more support it gave over the standard baby bjorn.
we decided to purchase the active carrier because we planned to use it frequently and we were warned that we would have a big baby, therefore, we opted for the extra support of the active model.
i have a big baby, and this product made it comfortable to carry him, with the lumbar support.
this product works better if your baby is a little older, when he is too young his head bounced around alot and so you have to use one hand to support it.
i would definitely recommend purchasing this product to any mommy that does a lot of traveling, has a baby that likes to be held or just have free hands for other stuff, like taking care of another
in all i would say this is a pretty great product considering it is inexpensive compared to other brands.i did find that when my baby was about a month old and i took her out with me on a shopping
i have no doubt that this product would be able to handle a baby up to 26 pounds, but i wouldn't want to put that sort of strain on my shoulders.
it was so nice to have my little boy near me and not worrying about carrying and balancing a heavy carseat (especially after my c-section!) or using the baby seats in the shopping carts.
my baby is 4 months now and loves to go along with me when i water the lawn, go to the store and even grandma loves it too.
i put this carrier on my baby registry and was given it as a gift at my shower.
you can loosen the straps and even breast feed your baby in the carrier which is very convenient when out and about.
it is a lot like the older beco with no infant insert for tiny babies.
pros: * easy to put on* baby can face in or out* adjustable buckles cons: * risk of hip displacement* limited use until baby is too heavy the bottom line: there are better baby carriers out there
the straps are comfortable and it is soft and comfy for the baby.
this is a good carrier except it is a little difficult to set baby up.
i purchased this carrier after registering for and receiving the parents of invention ultimate baby mei tai black reversible one-size-fits-all for my baby shower.
this is an excellent buy for anyone whose baby doesnot like the ride in the stroller.
highly recommend, particularly for second time mothers who need to carry their baby, and have free hands for their toddler all at the same time.
if you're not sure whether your baby will take to a carrier this is a good product because it's cheap.
cons: no head support for infants.
while not a plush as a baby bjorn, this carrier is a good carrier.
i bought this carrier when my baby was small and it did the trick just fine.
the second he was in this carrier, my baby screamed until i let him out.
i couldn't wait to receive this carrier to go hiking.
for the most part this carrier is pretty easy to use but it is very hard to adjust once your baby is in it.
i have all the straps as tight as they can go and it just didn't seem to hold my baby close enough to my body.
she's gotten too heavy to carry her in the baby bjorn comfortably.
i have no luck with infantino products.
it seems well put together, baby feels safe in it and it's great to have 2 free hands!
i was going to get a baby bjorn (just because i had heard how wonderful they were), but when i saw them side by side, the jeep had very similar locking mechanisms so i decided to give it a try.
baby fit well in it.
also, it can expand with just a zipper pull for a bigger baby.
after a few tries, it became very easy to get baby in and out.
great back and shoulder support for parents and it lets baby be forward facing.
i can usually take a nice long neighborhood walk with it just fine and i am small (5'2") and my baby is about 16 lbs.
we just got this last week and we went hiking with baby.
nice fit, i felt very comfortable that my baby was secure.
i really like carrying our baby around and this is one of my favorites, the other one is the peanut shell sling in black also :-).
i hike in it, but i also do chores around the house with my little guy riding around with me.
we've got a nice stroller, but this carrier is so comfortable and convenient that we actually prefer it for everything for walks around the block to hikes in the woods.
we bought this for our 9 month old, 17lb baby and love it.
we haven't had it for very long but we have done some over one hour hikes, so i can't say the long term durability of the straps, zippers or fabrics, we'll see i guess.
put the baby in and lug the baby around for at least 10-15 minutes.
so, my husband, baby and i went to target to try them out.
i use the baby bjorn active carrier and love that.
the price is wonderful compared to other baby carriers, especially considering the many great features.
i unclip the top buttons (easy); up clip the side belts (easy); pull the velcro apart from his sides (a little noisy but not enough to wake the baby) and i lay the whole thing down on the carpet just
i borrowed my sisters bjorn for a few months and then she needed it back because she has a new baby.
