The Top Baby Carriers for Weight

Babybjörn 026169US

$115.00 Est. at Amazon

from Anonymous, www.childcarriers.com
the baby bjorn active distributes weight well, is easy to put on and take off and our baby likes being close to mom and dad.
from www.amazon.com
compared to the infantino carrier (which is useless!) this one is superb, but i still think $100 is too expensive for this contraption, considering it can only be used until the baby weighs 26 lbs.

from Anonymous, www.childcarriers.com
our daughter is in the 50th percentile for weight and 75th for height.

the material and quality is great, but my daughter was just to heavy for it, walking any where for more than 15 minutes, hurt my back, so it just didn't work for me.
