We have the Ergo. I like it...DH LOVES it because when he wears it she falls asleep instantly. I find wearing her a little awkward but she really does love being in it. The baby can only face towards you with the Ergo, never out.

We used the Moby wrap. Once I got used to it, I loved it and so did she.

Moby wrap. there are videos on the website and on youtube. It's tricky but watch those and you'll be able to get it. It's the best!

Freakin LOVED IT. It's complicated at first, but once you get the hang of it, it is amazing. I could do EVERYTHING with her in it, which made it so much easier to take care of Alex. I could make dinner, clean up the house, do anything really, all while she was napping on me in the Moby.

Re: ladies who "wear" their babies

We used the Bjorn for months when DS was younger but recently purchased the Ergo because it carries more weight and is a bit more comfortable. We are going to Disney this weekend and need a carrier to fit DS. We just srarted using the Ergo and really like it.

Sorry I didn't write back right away!!
You rally can do anything with the baby in it. I have nursed, hiked, made dinner, played in the waves at Robert Moses... you name it. It was really complicated at first, but I practiced a lot in front of the mirror and it was great.

My only complaint... I'm kind of short (5'3") and I had to wrap the ends a lot so it didn't drag on the ground. My SIL is 5'10" and didn't have this problem

Also, it is WAAAAYYY cheaper on Amazon than at BRU, and they have more colors too.
