I think I may have written about this before, but now is a good time to come back to this. After almost 7 months, we have tried out a few different baby carriers. My wife likes to use the Baby Bjorn series. I used Aeroplan points to redeem a Lillebaby.
The Baby Bjorn series is really easy to use and simple to put on. Two colour coded hooks hold baby up while double sided clips snap to form a head rest. We have a few different Baby Bjorns. They all have pretty much the same features. The newer ones have a little better back support and padded straps. With Jasmine at 7 months, the weight can quickly take a toll on the shoulders. We haven't tried other configurations yet (inward facing only so far) but it seems like most Baby Bjorns only support the one setting.
The Lillebaby is a lot more complex to use but also much more comfortable. Overall it's a bit heavier with the padding but I feel that it has much better support overall. When I initially tried it with Jasmine she couldn't get used to the feeling. Now that she is older I may try the outward facing mode. She loves reaching out and grabbing things so I think it will be interesting for her to try.
Let me know about your experiences with baby carriers!
