Re: Bjorn vs. Ergo carrier

I used both and prefer the Ergo. The Ergo is more comfortable and i liked being able to wear DD on my back. Its also supposedly better for the baby's hips

No contest, the ergo! I had that bjorn at first and even when DD was only a few months old it would leave me sore. I upgraded to the ergo once I read that it was bad for babies' hips since DD had a hip condition already. It's super comfy and I have no problem toting her around at 13 months and 20+pounds. It can also be used to wear the baby on your back so DH will take that duty once she gets too heavy for me or for longer trips. I also love the zippered pockets. I throw my keys in there and off we go!

I think a bjorn is better for a little newborn. Ergo is better once the baby is heavier, 4 or 5 months.

Bjorn vs. Ergo carrier

I used the moby wrap and loved the support of it..but it was a pain. I also had the bjorn which was easier to use and the only time I used it to go for a walk with DD I noticed a huge difference and felt her weight more (and she was only 2 or 3 months!). So I think I want to buy the ergo now since I heard the support is better.
