[blparent] Carriers?

[Brandy W]

What you do is where it close to your body so the child is snug. They sit in the frog position with their feet just above the waist band around your middle. When they are frogged their head is not all the way out of the carrier and the carrier prevents their head from flopping. You can also use the flap for wind and rain and such up over the child to help with the head flopping. Worked great with a tiny one and I think it would be fine.

Hi,

As I said previously, I love the ergo as well.  What she’s talking about is the infant insert, which should be used for babies who can’t hold their head up yet since there’s really no support in the carrier itself for their heads.  I’m interested how you use if for smaller babies, as I have a new baby coming in June and I’d like not to have to spend the extra money on the insert if I don’t have to. 

Thanks in advance, 

Tammy

Hi, the Ergo is amazingly comfortable, small portable, easy to use, and not bulky at all. I'm actually confused what Lisa is talking about because it is simply fabric with a few buckles. It adjusts for all body sizes, washes nicely, and is just perfect! I've used the ergo with children as small as 5 lbs, and as heavy as 25 at this point, but see no reason why it wouldn't be comfortable to use it heavier. Several of my friends use the Ergo with 45 lb children on their back and side. I haven't figured out the side thing, but it is very simple to use on the front and back.

If you have more specific questions let me know.

Has anyone had any experience with the Becco or Ergo baby carriers?
If so, what were your experiences with each?
I am trying to find a carrier to use which is easy and not to bulky.
Thanks
