[blparent] Best Blind Friendly Baby carrier

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

I didn't end up using baby carriers much, but that might be because the two I got were crappy. I got the Snugglee and the Bjorn, and I hated them both. The best way to know is to go somewhere you can try on different ones--if I'd tried the ones I bought on and worn them for any length of time, I wouldn't have spent good money on them.

Hi Amanda! I went to the store and tried several baby carriers after my oldest daughter was born. I liked the ergo baby carrier. It is now been updated so that the baby can face in toward you or face out. It came with an infant insert when they were younger. I’m not sure if this is changed. I really like this one and thought it was intuitive to use. If you’re looking for free contact me off list and I would be happy to give you mine. I no longer use it and I’m just trying to find a good home. It is pink out though.
