Okay, not to beat this subject to death...

but I'm trying to decide between these two.

I have a Baby Bjorn, which is great for when baby is small, but I've been getting an achy back as my baby gets bigger.


Opinions?

Thank you !!!

I hated the ergo for my newborn. it was too bulky & you can't resell them or the "ergo police" that stalk ebay will get you.

I'm not hot on my baby bjorn for the same reason you stated. I'm selling it on ebay as soon as I get my new purchase.

I just bought a pikkolo from catbird baby. it's like a mei tai but with buckles & everyone seems to love it. you can wear it front, hip & back. you can even buy a addional support belt for your waist & a fleece cover for cold weather.

I forget their user name, but they are called something like ergocopyrightprotection & they spend their whole lives searching for people selling ergos, so that they can report thm to ebay & get their accounts suspended. charming people.

That's funny about the Ergo Police.

If you really want to get confused but are looking for a great source of info on carriers you should check out thebabywearer.com. It has every carrier out there listed and most of them have reviews from users. I'm also pretty lost as to which carrier I should get. When I think I finally found the right one another comes up that makes me rethink it. Anyhow, Good luck.
