My baby was born at 36 weeks, tiny thing, but I knew I needed to figure out a hands free way to carry her otherwise the dog would never get a bathroom break (and I’d end up with pee in a closet…). I had already purchased a moby wrap prior to her birth, so on day 4 or so I gave it a shot. It takes a few practice tries to get it tied right – my advice is just scrunch it up and then smooth out the fabric on your shoulders and over the baby later, don’t bother trying to keep everything smooth while you put it on). My little girl fits in nice and snug and really seems to enjoy it. If she’s fussy, I can pop her in, start walking around and she quiets down, taking in the sights and then eventually falling asleep. I’ve been for 2 walks with the dog (in winter in the north) and she doesn’t even flinch when I go outside. I just wrap a sweater around her, zip up my jacket as much as possible, and away we go. I’m actually wearing her in the Moby right now as I type this review- and I’m going to go eat dinner next. If you’re doing attachment parenting (I’m not, but feel I should mention it) this would make things WAY easier. I just like to keep her upright for a good period of time after feeding so that we can skip spit up.I sort of worry she can’t breath with her face smashed into my chest, but I can always look down and see her little back going up and down, so I know she’s okay.

I’m giving this to a friend because it just wasn’t for me. I liked the idea of having my baby close and when they are small it’s hard to have them in a larger carrier. I couldn’t figure out how to wrap it around my body with confidence. I have heard feedback from moms that it can get very warm, feeling like you are wearing a ton of layers. May be harder for a baby born in the summer. Also moms saying it drags on the ground when trying to wrap it. Again, I just didn’t have the patience. Needed something easy!

I got the Moby wrap as a gift and I was so excited to try it! When my little girl was 1 month old I put her in it and she struggled and struggled, she seemed so uncomfortable. I tried again when she was 7 weeks and she loved it and fell asleep in it. When I put it on, it calms her and she falls asleep fairly quickly but it is a pain to put on! Maybe I need a few more moths of practice. Also, if I am home and I am wearing her and she falls asleep its hard to take her out without waking her up.I love it, I just wish it was a little easier to put on.

Head support is very soft and easy to use. Picture shown is true. I would highly recommend head support to other parents. Company seems great. Package arrived fast.

Overall nice fabric and quality however makes my man a little hot (we live in Florida.) There’s no way to secure it which allows it to move around but overall serves it’s purpose.

I use this head support in the Baby Jogger City Mini GT stroller with an infant rather than buying the car seat adapter. It works great, provides support, and is soft.

I love this carrier. I tried a sling but it tweaked my baby’s head and looked uncomfy, not to mention it was hard to get her in. I also have the ergo carrier but she is too little to straddle my body and the infant carry position is awkward for it, it will be great when she gets a little older. For the meantime this is the carrier to get when they are tiny!! Wish I would have gotten it sooner so I could have been more productive around the house earlier on! The black version is cheaper but I went with this one because its supposed to “breathe” better, I think you could go either way and save 5 bucks if you need to or if you like black better, this is actually more of a charcoal than light grey, very nice. I can see how it could hurt your back after a while but I just use it around the house and shes only 12lbs right now. Its not exactly a breeze to get on but its not bad and if your baby is not screaming, you can unclip it in many places to slip it on otherwise you’ve got to kinda wiggle this over your head

I was wondering how good this product could really be for less than $20 and well I can see why it is under $20. Its not horrible but it does feel very heavy on your shoulders after about 20 minutes. I am in my 30’s and a female..not small by any means. Maybe it would be better for a man with stronger shoulders.

I use this awesome item excessively ,my baby loves to be carried and so I must attach and carry her and this does just that no problems out of it so far. I do not carry her for long periods of time though. This is only a more affordable alternative if you plan to wear your baby for long periods or into toddler years your going to have to bust out the big bucks. I recommend it to any new mommies that just need something quick and for the 1st few months.

I got this after my slingrider was recalled. So far we have a love hate relationship with this. The black and the type of fabric picks up everything so it gets dirty very fast and it shows very easily. I was thinking this would be great for traveling but once I got it the ties are long and it’s hard trying to fit it into a diaper bag when not in use, and it takes up a great deal of space. If it had a carry bag for when it’s not in use that would have been nice.Few things I like:1. feels good on, doesn’t hurt my back like other carriers2. very easy to put on and adjust3. baby seems happyFew things I don’t:1. fabric is like a swiffer, picks up a ton of dust and after only two days and wearing it twice it already needs to be washed. It shows everything!2. prints to choose from aren’t as attractive as those used for the slingrider, the material was better too it didn’t attract a ton of dust. I would have chosen the khaki but looking at the print for a while gave me a headache.3. wish it could be used for newborns but doesn’t seem to have that much versatility as other wrap carriers.Hands down I think I prefer the moby wrap and it’s cheaper.

I ordered this last night and paid for expedited shipping. Got it by 3pm today.I am soooooo glad I did.I have a 1 week old daughter (not yet 8lbs) who cries if I put her in one of her playards (even when she is sleepy or asleep already after a feeding). I could do nothing but hold her all day long. I was getting crazy.Today, I vaccumed and mopped with my little one in front of me (I first tried the bassinet of the playards but she was crying).I chose to buy the Infantino last night because I didn’t want to deal with yards and yards of fabric and complicated knots from other baby carriers. I didn’t want to buy a more expensive carrier (B*orn or Er*o,…) because I was promised I would get one by a family member but I don’t have it yet… I needed something to relieve me NOW, cheap and easy. This fits the bill, I am glad I made that purchase.

I bought this to use as a backpack carrier for my 21-month-old because he’s nearing the weight limit for most carriers but we have a lot of baby wearing left to do (lots of international travel, not stroller-friendly). I criss-cross the front because shoulder straps don’t distribute weight well, & it’s very comfortable for me, but tying across my little guy’s back really hurts him. I’m going to try to alter it so I can tie it somewhere else, but I would never recommend this carrier to anyone. It hurt him so much he cried this weekend.

I looked forward for a long time to getting this and am familiar with a lot of babywearing items. The shirt that came before this one is called the Miracle Cami. The Nuroo looked to me to offer better support/safety as well as looking more stylish and I was very excited about it.However now that I’ve used it I find it has a lot of unnecessary flaws. They could have done a lot better with this one.1. The velcro (which takes up a lot of space on this garment) has painful, scratchy sides – even the soft velcro. ESPECIALLY if you have sore nipples, this sucks, but even without that it makes the shirt pretty unappealing.2. The velcro is stiff to the point that when you close the shirt snugly around your body, it pulls the other side of the shirt in a weird direction. It looks sloppy, and exposes the velcro more…3. Which is not good, because the shirt catches on the velcro wherever it’s exposed, and is going to start getting pilly really quickly, in addition to being noisy and uncomfortable to constantly unstick yourself.3. The plastic link that allows you to close the belt is an awkward shape and doesn’t stay in place. You can’t make it sit right so the belt bunches up weirdly around it. It’s a cheap touch that would have been easy to avoid.4. The batting of the belt is polyurethane foam, which is gross and toxic. I have to wonder how expensive it would have been to just fill it with plain old cotton or even just basic polyester fill which would give it the same softness.On top of all this, unlike the Miracle Cami, you can’t easily pump in this shirt while wearing your baby, which is one of the most valuable reasons to do skin-to-skin (S2S increases milk supply and wearing baby while you pump helps your output!). I don’t fault NuRoo for this because it’s not advertised as a pumping shirt, but it would have given it a few more points in my book. I was able to pump by unfastening the top of the shirt to loosen it a little, but it didn’t look very comfortable for my 8 lb baby and I doubt it will be as doable as my baby gets bigger.Three stars because any shirt like this is a great concept, but I hope this will either get improved or overtaken by a better product soon.

I got what was supposed to fit my body, and when I put it on it fits, but when I try to put my baby in it was crushing her. I’d say go larger. Other then that it seems pretty good. and the material is nice. But, i could see it being too hot right after delivery. I was very hot for days after giving birth, and this would have been way too warm to wear in those days.

I am seriously obsessed with the Nuroo pocket!!! My only regret is that I didn’t buy it when our baby was first born. I only discovered and purchased it when she was 6 wks old and I am still using it at 3 months!! I was given the Ergo carrier at my shower but found that with the infant insert, it was just so bulky and soooo hot for summer! So I went on the hunt for something more lightweight and cooler. There are so many wraps out there but the others seemed so complicated, I just wanted something really easy to wear. The Nuroo is super easy to wear, its like a shirt you put on, slip your baby in the pocket and then velcro the shirt together. There is also a support belt that comes with the shirt that helps keep the baby from slipping down the pocket. If you’ve been walking around alot, the baby will slip down the pocket, but just push your baby up a little, tighten the belt again and you’re set! My baby can be super fussy but as soon as I put her in the pocket she falls asleep every.single.time!!! I can get errands done, dishes washed, laundry folded, it’s honestly the best baby product I’ve purchased and now my go to shower gift for all my friends!!

best baby carrier out there. The newborn insert isn’t that handy, but this doesn’t kill your back. It’s very comfortable

THE GOOD STUFF: No….the GREAT stuff! I bought the Ergo classic carrier after months of researching, and weeks of shopping. I bought it to replace a secondhand Bjorn classic carrier, which was killing my neck and shoulders since my baby reached about 13 pounds. My neck and back literally hurt all the time.My daughter now weighs 17.7 pounds, and I can carry her in the Ergo for more than two hours at a time, and we are both really comfortable. The carrier ir rated up to 45 pounds. I’m sure I could carry at least 30, and then switch to a back carry.The best thing about this carrier is the fact that can carry my sweet baby girl for as long as she wants to be carried, and in almost any situation without pain. Being free from pain…..it is SO worth it!! I was overjoyed to find this carrier!!I have nursed her in this carrier twice. It’s not perfectly discreet. I mean, if people are weirdos and they really want to see your breast, that can see into the Ergo….but I latched her on en route to a private place. It’s very easy to nurse in the Ergo and the baby fell asleep and stayed asleep once she was done eating. I just tucked the food source away, cinched the carrier back up, and continued with my errands.The Ergo is easy to put on and simple to adjust, with just three snap closures that are easy to reach. You really do need to try this thing on to understand how all the straps work together to fit it just right.ON POSSIBLE HEIGHT ISSUES: I have heard complaints that the Ergo doesn’t fit petite women. I am 5’8″ and 130 pounds with narrow shoulders, and it fits me wonderfully. I have a fairly long waist though, and I can see how it might be a little bulky for a shorter person. The lower I put the carrier on my hips, the harder it is for my baby (who is very tall) to see out over the edges. For a person who doesn’t have the advantage of a long torso, your options might be limited as to how far up or down you could move the waist strap. I have heard people say narrow-shouldered people might have a problem in this carrier. Well, I have dispropotionately small shoulders for my size and height, and it hasn’t been a problem for me.On the flip side, because my daughter is long (the same height as many of her one-year-old friends), nursing in the Ergo would be impossible if not for all the extra material. As I mentioned, the lower it sits on the hips, the longer the body of the carrier and vice versa. All that extra material can be an advantage if you learn how to use it effectively.There are adjustment straps all over the Ergo, and with some adjusting, I think this carrier can be fitted to almost any person.ON SOME HEAT ISSUES: The only issue to be aware of is the Ergo is made of a thick canvas-like material and is lined with cotton. It is breathable, but still quite warm. My baby and I both sweat a little already and it’s only 70 degrees outside. Ergo makes a sport and performance carrier. The sport doesn’t seem sturdy, and the performance wasn’t quite as comfy for me, although my baby seemed just as happy in it as in the classic. I ended up buying a Mei Tai Baby carrier off Ebay as a back up carrier for really warm days.Again, I am overjoyed at finding the Ergo baby, and I am, quite literally, going to go pick up my daughter and put her in it now so I can some laundry with her. It’s a dream come true!

First of all I love my Ergo! It makes my life so much easier to be able to carry and snuggle my little guy while still doing things with my five year old. I love having my hands free – I just need them sometimes! I love how comfy it is to use for me and my baby. I love how snug and secure he is and my back doesn’t ache. I love that my son fits in the front now, but when my friend needed to borrow it for her slightly older child she used the back carry position just as comfortably.I don’t like how rough the fabric is (mine is the Galaxy Gray). I know, there are different fabrics, but they are even more expensive, and even this one is way up there for my budget, but WORTH IT. I also don’t love that the strap that goes across your back (or front) between the shoulder straps can only go so far down. On a different model, I can’t remember if its the performance or sport, that strap can go down a lot further and doesn’t rub on a persons sides and inside of the arms so much. That’s also where the rough fabric bugs me sometimes. However that model seems to be made for a much taller person than I am at 5’2″.Plus, I absolutely love the little zip pocket in front of my Ergo! One day I had two diapers, a ziplock with some wipes, a cell phone, some cash, and my giant wad of keys in there! I think I probably could have also squeezed in a tube of Chapstick, too! It’s amazing how often I use the Ergo, and how many places we take it. It helps so much in those “I need more hands/arms moments”. It fits me very well, my taller friend comfortably, but a 6’2″ person said it was uncomfortable. I don’t think it had been adjusted at all, though. It really changes how it feels by adjusting it to fit.I also should admit that while I ordered Ergo through Amazon I never got it, and the seller disappeared from Amazon, so my money was refunded and I went and bought it at our local shop and paid a little extra to have it that day. I love that Amazon made sure I got my money back!
