Pros: Easy to use, attractive, enjoyable
Cons: Maybe initial adjustments
Summary: I have 2 children, a 6 year old son and an almost 11 months old daughter. They are like day and night in many ways. Where my son was more sedentary and more independent in his play, my daughter rarely holds still and is into everything. Coupled with ... read more

Pros: good construction, hands-free for 45 lbs., washable, durable, well padded, easy to use
Cons: confusing sizing chart, back adjustment, can get slightly uncomfortable after about 30-45 minutes
Summary: My daughter is a big girl who loves to be held. She’s just shy of 30 lbs., almost three feet tall, and just turned two. I gave up on using baby carriers when she was around one because they just didn’t work for me and I didn’t see any point ... read more

Pros: Very adjustable. More comfortable than holding baby on hip. Toddler loved.
Cons: Pain getting over mom’s head, needs a buckle. Mild shoulder discomfort with extended use.
Summary: I’ve had a front baby carrier since my oldest was a little baby. It works well from about 1 month to about 9 months. Then my babies (lightweight ones too!) tend to be too much weight for the carrier to adequately distribute, and I end up with a ... read more

Summary: I’ve got it! For goodness sake, I’ve got the hippy hippy shake! I’ve got the shake, oh the Hip Baby shake! I can move around, with the Hip Baby shake, I get things done, with that Hip Baby shake! Carry my baby, with the Hip ... read more

Pros: High quality well made baby carrier
Cons: It didn't work for us
Summary: I think you can tell a lot about a child by their vocabulary, especially when they are young. My 18 month old son has a vocabulary of about half a dozen words, one of which is “up.” Let’s just say he spends a lot of time being carried. The ... read more

Pros: Attractive colors, Quality Construction, Nicely Padded, Good customer service
Cons: Adjust it first or with the help of another adult, a little tricky!

Pros: Looks good, nice materials...
Cons: Uncomfortable, Zack doesn't like it, doesn't fit me in the least...
Summary: If you have (or had) a baby you will understand their need to be held. All the time. Day or night. Regardless of whether you want to wash the dishes or mow the yard. There are plenty of options when it comes to carriers. We chose the Baby Bjorn as ... read more

Pros: reasonably comfortable, washes well
Cons: missing pocket, hard to adjust
Summary: With four kids, I've used just about every carrier you can imagine. Multiple slings, the omnipresent Baby Bjorn and other newfangled carriers that claim to do it all. However, I still haven't found the perfect carrier even with all my testing, so ... read more

Pros: comfortable for baby, great fabric, comes in sizes
Cons: all the weight pinches the shoulder, can't adjust straps with baby inside
Summary: My daughter and I are definitely sling people. I've adored slings ever since Her Royal Highness was four months old and I purchased our first Maya Wrap. Even at that age, people who found out I bought a new carrier wanted to know how much use I ... read more

Pros: Very secure, spreads the weight of the baby proportionally
Cons: It does make it difficult to bend to retrieve items at a low level
Summary: A child carrier is an excellent invention so moms can use both their hands to do their everyday activities with their child still calm hanging on to them. The hip baby is wonderful for the mom on the
