In New York City, having to push a stroller around is not easy. Imagine carrying a stroller up and down the steps of the subway entrance. Argh! This was creating a problem and I needed to find a solution. ERGO Baby Carrier was the answer. At first, I was drawn away from the bulky looking straps and the not so stylish fabric patterns. However, from a practicality standpoint, it was perfect. From infancy to toddler, the ERGO baby carrier met all my needs in baby wearing: the front, back or hip positions. It can hold babies up to 40 lbs.! ERGO is short for ergonomic; hence it’s better designed for our bodies. The carrier helps reduce the stress from carrying the baby by dispersing the baby’s weight evenly. The innovative design of this carrier is a well-thought out one. Very versatile and allow moms and dads (did I mention “dads”; the same carrier fits men’s bodies too) to be hands free to remain productive in our everyday lives. Also, you can breastfeed your baby in this carrier. It provides a cover to do so. This is the ultimate attachment parenting “must have” baby carrier.

I have this and I LOVE IT TOO!!!
I tested it on my 2 1/2 year old before I got too pregnant, and she was at least 30 lbs. and I barely felt her back there! And she loved it too. I toted her all around Ikea for at least an hour on my back.
Now, the ultimate test will come when baby brother arrives, we will have to try it on an infant.

The Ergo is a lifesaver! When we first arrived in NY, we actually used it exclusively for a week until we found a stroller we wanted. And it was no problem at all–the cool baby is so happy in it and it’s easy on the back!
