There are so many of them! I don't know one for another but I'm hoping you can tell me which one you have or which you chose if you're expecting and why. Thanks.

For newborn I recommend a Moby wrap, ktan, or ring sling. For a soft structured carrier I recommend ergo, Beco, Boba, or Tula. You want baby facing the wearer, always. As well as a supportive seat that gives an "m" shape seat.

Stay away from baby bjorn and those like it.

I have the Infantino Ergonomic Carrier . It is the same theory as the Ergo but less than half the price. I've been using it for well over a year. DD is almost 2 and I still use it on occasion and I am 25 weeks pregnant and comfortable in it.

I used/use a ring sling for younger babies. I have a Sakura bloom linen sling that's comfy.

I have an ergo for older babies. I haven't used an infant insert in it but at 5 months my DD is just starting to fit in it.

I have a Bjorn (didn't know they weren't good), and DD hated it until she was 5 months old...

I also have a Moby and LOVE it!! That's what I'll be using this time around. Watch you tube videos bc it took me a while to figure out how to tie it correctly.

I love my ergo. Had a bigger baby, and he fit in it right away with the insert.

Sounds like it!

I didn't realize that I should have been looking for 2 different ones.
