Guest guest Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 How is the support for your back? My back is fine, but the minute I put on a carrier the left side of my back kills me. I think it's from sleeping with him in my arms at night. I don't think I'd make it through the grocery store, but I think he'd love it.

He still can't sit up unassisted, but is getting much closer to it. I used a moby wrap before the ergo, but the moby wrap can be more challenging because you have to wear it on you before arriving to the store and it loosens as you wear it. > > “I am learning all the time.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 I have terrible back problems and have found that the ergo and moby worked best for me. I can do short periods (30 minutes to an hour) with either carrier without too much back pain. Maybe you can try borrowing one or buying one used to try it out. I know that with these carriers it's all a matter of finding the best one for both you and the baby. I had a baby bjorn for my first child 8 yrs ago, and I HATED it, but I gave it to another mom and she absolutely loved it. “I am learning all the time.
