Ergobaby

4.7

(52)

"I can’t recommend it enough. The lumbar support really saved my back."

"Personally, I love my Ergobaby Embrace and the Ergobaby Omni 360 Mesh."

"The Embrace is especially great for helping little ones nap."

"A breathable, lightweight option such as the Ergobaby Omni Breeze may be ideal."

"The Ergobaby Omni Breeze is particularly loved for its breathable mesh design and ability to accommodate multiple carry positions"

Tula

4.4

(41)

"I love my Tula Free to Grow which I got on fb marketplace for $40."

"Tula, Beco, kinderpack, and actually a beluga baby half buckle carrier or any brand half buckle really, are way better imo."

"It’s been an absolute game-changer."

"We used a Tula for my little girl and XXL hubby had no issues with it."

"A BabyDink for the newborn stage, and a Tula when they're a little bigger!"

"Tula free to grow!"

"Tula!"

"Try baby Tula!"

"Then we switched to a Tula carrier."

"Tall mom with big baby here. We love our hemp Tula FTG! Lightweight and easy."

Lillebaby

4.5

(29)

"These carriers have gained popularity for offering comfort, versatility, and ergonomic support."

"I backcarry with the Lillebaby Complete All Seasons. He's almost 2 and 25 lbs."

"We loved our Lillebaby with the zip down/mesh part."

"1000% lillebaby. They are amazing!"

"The lile baby is adjustable enough to fit both of us."

"Lillebaby complete works well for us."

"My husband is a 2XLT and he loves our lillebaby."

"Looove my Lillebaby. You can do a newborn carry without an insert and it can also be used as they grow. The lumbar support makes it way more comfy"

"I just got a Lillebaby carrier. Works from newborn until toddler. I love it!"

"We went with the Lillebaby as the ssc for me and DH."

Moby

4.4

(24)

"These carriers have gained popularity for offering comfort, versatility, and ergonomic support."

"It’s super easy to use and comfy!"

"I love my Moby carrier!"

"We're using our moby that she LOVES."

"Moby wrap worked great!"

"Moby Wrap! It worked really well to have her snug and comfy."

"We can both use the Moby easily because you just tie it on each time instead of having to adjust straps like with the Ergo or Bjorn."

"I loved my moby during that time and I also found the ergo infant carrier a pain."

"Moby for a wrap and I love my infantino unison for a SSC!"

"I loved my moby in that age."

Boba

4.3

(16)

"I got the Boba Bliss hybrid carrier and I can comfortably wear him for hours."

"I loved my Boba Air."

"I researched obsessively and finally decided on Boba 4G!"

"So we waited until our LO was born and decided to go with the Boba wrap."

"Boba also has amazing customer service. My chest clip slid off the piping and they immediately sent me a label and replaced it with a 4G without even asking when I bought it."

"I have the Boba carrier and I've been using it for 15 months. Recently purchased the Air since my daughter is over 15 pounds so I use both all the time. Love them!"

"We have a ringsling, a boba and two wovens. All are one size fits all. The boba extends up to like 58". All are awesome."

"My little one sleeps better in the Boba."

"I thought worked really well. A secure fit, lots of adjustability, handy pockets, pretty uncomplicated."

"A stretchy wrap (like a Boba) would be completely adjustable."

4.1

(10)

"I love my k'tan, used it from 2 days old and still occasionally use it now with my giant lump of a child who is nearly 2."

"The K'tan is great and easy to put on. I wouldn't wear it outside though."

"I had the K'tan with my son but between me being short and my son being 95+ percentile height since birth that carrier did not work for us."

"We liked the ergo baby. My husband and I are very different body types and it for us both very well."

Baby Bjorn

3.7

(7)

"Both the Baby Bjorn's we got given fit me fine."

"My partner is 6ft2 and approximately 100kg and he uses our baby bjorn one mesh carrier quite easily."

"It’s comfortable for both of us. There are lots of adjustable pieces."

"I couldn't tell you the brand name, because it's faded. But I was able to get the straps short enough on it to work perfectly for me."

"Baby Bjorn is great for up to 6 months though, so if you can find one used/cheap it's a good buy and useful for half a year."

"Husband will use a baby bjorn (we have both a winter and summer one that we were given as handmedowns)"

"With my older two, the Bjorn was sort of the latest and greatest and I wore my sons everywhere."
