For those that prefer a baby carrier with more of a cuddly feel, the ERGObaby Carrier is just for you. This soft structured baby carrier gives you continuous connection, along with the feeling of freedom, and the security of knowing that your precious cargo is safe and sound. The ERGObaby carrier is quite versatile, whether you’re planning a day of hiking, a trip to the supermarket, or just a day of tidying up around the house. This soft structured baby carrier adjusts through all the stages of your baby’s growth, moving from front to hip to back positions easily.

The ERGObaby Carrier also offers padded shoulder straps, and a padded waist belt giving you the added comfort you need for longer walks around the neighborhood.

Overall, the ERGO baby carrier is well worth the purchase price. As for “The Bad”, every soft structured baby carrier takes some practice getting used to, and all ERGO Baby products are machine washable, they’re just not intended for frequent washing, and you must hang dry, or dry on low heat. The teething problem will affect you no matter what soft structured baby carrier you purchase. Current owners love their ERGO’s. If you want to carry your baby close, and have that continuous connection, offering kisses, and hugs, all while getting your dishes washed or your laundry folded, the ERGO Baby Carrier is for you.  You can get the Ergo Baby Carrier currently on sale at Amazon.com.

Juniper,

We’ve had it for six months now and it is the number one thing I could not live without as far as all baby gear is concerned.  I too was worried about her only facing inwards, but she has never minded and she seems to prefer it. She holds on like a little koala bear as we go about our daily business. My daughter loves her Ergo in the way some kids take to a lovey. She’ll stop by and give it a visit when she’s crawling around exploring the house. It is very sweet and funny. I love the time my daughter and I spend walking our neighborhood with her in the Ergo. Sometimes we’re quiet and other times she’ll make happy bounces and that’s my cue to do some hops and bounces for her. Our family members wonder why we never need a stroller. “Isn’t she heavy?” they ask. They think we’re a little weird. I don’t know any parents out there who will look back on their child’s life and wish that perhaps they had carried him/her less. We don’t carry her all the time, but we do carry her more. The forward-facing position allows for optimal baby head-kissing…now who wouldn’t want more of that? (except maybe the baby )–but a few more here and there are always nice, especially if you can sneak them in when they’re asleep or not looking.

Hug your baby, carry your baby, dance with your baby…the Ergo will let you have more time to do those things *and* maybe get the dishes done too .

Poundofturtle,

First, what I like about the Ergo in general: I like that the Ergo baby carrier puts most of the baby’s weight on your hips, making it much more comfortable to wear for long periods of time. It also has very nice padded shoulder straps. Next, I love that my baby is in a healthy seated position,(and as far as I can observe, she is also more comfortable.) I have read that carriers offering the front carry position (this one doesn’t) are not good for your baby, because instead of being seated, they are just kind of hanging from their crotch and that it puts too much pressure on their spine and hips. Versatility–I really appreciate that the Ergo offers three different carry positions: Back, Front, and Hip (your baby faces in toward you in each of these positions.) A good carrier should carry your baby like you would–close and high. This carrier does that. Also, the Ergo has a “sleep hood” which I can pull over my sleeping baby to keep her head from bouncing around. It can also provide privacy for your baby to nurse in the carrier if you choose. Lastly, because of how it is designed, you can carry heavier children in it (it’s rated for up to forty pounds), so you can use the same carrier for your baby, or your toddler. The Ergo offers quality, comfort and safety for you and your little one, at what I consider a fair price. I would definitely say it’s a good choice in soft structured baby carriers.
