Di – I loan you my Baby Bjorn carrier. Since now I am using Ergo. Let me wash for you. Don ‘t waste money get since Baby Bjorn can only carry up to 10kg.
Never mind – after 10kg can approach me to sell my Ergo. Haha. My sling is Combi brand.
u might be interested in this article if u are doing some research on a bb carrier…

it has all the pros and cons of all the carriers! hehe
you DONT need a Belly Bandit to get back to sharp. You can make it as long as you continue to BF. Lost additonal 2-3kg during BF, back to normal when I stopped. No chance to buy new clothings as all still can wear.
I used the MIM sling and the baby sling when my girl is younger (less than 2yr). Bought Ergo after I heard of good reviews, very comfy and no sore shoulders from carrying for long time. BUT I used less than 10times!!! caused I make her walk herself or stroller!!! She’ll be 4 coming Feb.
hazel, thanks for sharing!
sam, is ergo good?
di, we went to KP to try on the baby bjorn y’day. ethan also cried in it. but i still going to buy one cos it’s so much easier to move ard carrying him in it. best part of it is my hands are FREE!!! maybe i’ll get a 2nd hand one.
hazel,
after i read the reviews frm the link u posted, seems like baby bjorn is not tat good after all leh. the site recommends beco & ergo.
hi bren
yup i think the americans don’t really recommend the bjorn cos it hangs the baby by the crotch.
u can go to the shop at novena to try if it’s convenient. cos they have almost all the brands mentioned in the website.
Ergo is good for older baby as the feature of carrier help to distribute the weight evenly on your shoulder and hip. So you don’t feel strain.
If Ergo must use on newborn, must remember to buy infant insert, if not just put the baby into this carrier, they’ll definately cry. As it’s not built to direct put a newborn in it.
