Much better alternatives out there for baby carriers

Baby Bjorn was the pioneer for baby carriers 10 years ago but since then there has been an explosion in the market - slings, front carriers, pouches, etc. The BEST, in my honest opinion, is the Ergo. The baby sits with correct posture (The Bjorn is not so great for the baby's spine) and the parent is not in pain! I can walk for hours with my 20 lb baby in the Ergo -- not so in the Bjorn.

Still great after 5 children-also good for all body shapes

I received the Baby Bjorn as a baby gift in 2002 with my 1st infant. I used it constantly and really liked that it freed up my hands. My son did the forward and rear facing and was very happy. He would fall asleep easily and stay asleep when we were out. I let a friend borrow it for a year and she loved using it too! Since then, I have had 3 more infantren. I used it constantly with my 2nd and 3rd. I prefer a sling with a newborn, but this is great once they are a few months old. It is still in great condition and will easily make it through many more infantren. The only drawback was that if the infant was forward facing they would drool on the carrier and sometimes the black would get on their clothes. I would just use a burp cloth around the edge so this wouldn't happen. Now, Baby Bjorn came out with the bibs you put around the edge to solve this.
I am a plus size Mom so I am so happy with how this easily fits on me. My husband also will wear it since it can easily adjust to fit him and it is a neutral color. It feels fine on my shoulders. I wore my 1 year old son while a few months pregnant all over Disney World and it was great. I have tried other infant carriers and this is the best one I have found!
