Does anyone have one? Like it, hate it? I check babysteals.com | Ergo Baby Carriers everyday and today its on there for a great deal and I LOVE that pink print one. Im definitely going to baby wear is this one worth the money? Or would a moby be better?

Thanks!!

Ive just read some reviews and it seems people really love this carrier, high quality and comfortable. I just want to know now if any of you have it, and if you like it or not!

omg! I WANT TO GET ONE FOR THE NEXT BABY! I like the pink one too. But what if I have a bo? I guess it doesn't really matter? I'm tempted. I bought one w/ Oliver for $100 but returned it because he hated it. He liked facing out to look around.

Isnt it an amazing deal? I was thinking im a girl so i'll like the color even if I have a boy but I think people would think I have a girl then...but I was thinking its only $60+shipping and the original price is $110, and their on ebay for around $100-105 so if you end up having another boy you could just sell it on ebay and get what you paid for it!

I'm not sure, but if you want it buy it right away. That site sells out incredibly fast!

I guess you could always sell it again if you end up with a boy (isn't there a higher % boys out of IUI?), and don't want a pink one. I bet you wouldn't have a hard time finding a buyer for $70 or so.

I LOVE my Ergo. I wore Ella in it 24/7 until it got too uncomfortable now that I'm pregnant. That is the one baby item I could not live without. It's so easy and convenient. I loved wearing her and hope that she'll be fine going back into it after this baby is born (at least the times I'm not wearing the new baby).

With that said, I bought a Moby off craigslist to wear for the first couple of months when my new baby is too small for the Ergo. You can get an infant insert but I wanted to try the Moby anyway. It looks so comfy and cuddly for the newborn stage because it wraps them to you.

I bought one already. Hasn't come in yet though. I ordered a green one. I've heard great things about them. I have a moby too. Although, aside from around the house I find the moby difficult to use. It is a lot of fabric to travel with and bulky to pre-tie on before leaving. I also have a Baby K'tan. It is like a pretied moby and super easy to use. I don't think it will be as good as a moby when my baby gets bigger, but for now I like it better.

I didn't like it for Jack at first, but now he loves it. I mean, LOVES it! So BUY it! You can put them on your back with it and babies totally love it!

I just bought the pink one! Thanks for the tip! I better get knocked up and have a baby girl now

I just bought the black one! I really liked the pink but the organic gender neutral won out. I'm going to try it out with Oliver. I don't think he will go for it but you never know..

OK, girls, how do you get them on your back? Most of the time when we go out on walks or shopping, I am on my own. Also, he wont ride facing my chest in the baby bjorn. Wondering if this is worth it to me.

btw, did you guys see the organic Halo sleepers on woot for $4? Only up to 6-9 mo though but a great deal!

Here you go: Kids.Woot : One Day, You?ll Understand (SM)

It's a daily deal site like baby steals. The sleepers are great deal, they are normally at least $ 12 each. I bought 3 (the max they let you)!

I LOVE my ergo...didn't have one for Harrison but so glad I got one for Nora...I was bummed when I saw them so cheap - mine was $100! I got the infant insert and sucking pads too - totally worth it. Nora can hang out in this thing all day....and even Harrison could go in it if need be it goes up to like 50 pounds or something!

Everyone needs one - and its so different than a sling - I'm not into the sling thing but I would suggest buying both if you can afford both!

OMG me and troy and london love the ergo! It also hip carries (not sure if you all know that). Me or troy will wear him for an easy 8-10 hr day when out. Its wonderful1!!!!
(we have the ergo sport). GREAT deal on them also! If you wanted to sell it you could easily get that price back I'm sure.

Definitely a bad influence!

I went ahead and got the black one too. I thought that was the more gender neutral one. They sell for 99 euro here ($130 about), so I am hoping I can sell it again if Jax doesn't like it. Well, then I guess I should keep it for the next baby.
