I am a babywearer.  Babywearing is the practice of wearing or carrying a baby or child in a sling or other form of carrier.

Ultimately, I love to babywear, because I want to be close to my baby. Who doesn’t?  He’s happy, I’m happy, and the whole family is happy.  One of the main practical reasons that I babywear is so that I can be hands free around the house and when I’m out and about.  Now that I have four kids, time isn’t always on my side.  It’s easier for me to put the baby in a carrier and do laundry, walk around at my son’s baseball games, or go grocery shopping.  Not to mention, babywearing also doubles as tummy time, which is probably why Jett is such a strong little boy already!

Before Jett was born, I was given the opportunity to review an ERGObaby baby carrier.  For obvious reasons, I wasn’t able to truly review it until recently.

One of my favorite features of the ERGObaby is the padded shoulder straps so that the weight of the baby doesn’t cut into my shoulders. Another fantastic feature is the strap that goes across my back to keep the shoulder straps in place. Pair these with the waist strap extension for those of us who do not fit the cookie cutter model body type, and I have the perfect carrier.

For babies up to 4-5 months, ERGObaby also has a HEART2HEART infant insert for babies who are not ready for the sitting position to aid in supporting a healthy spine, pelvis, hip joints, and leg position.  (I did not use it in the photo to the left because it was a hot, humid day.)

Not only is the ERGObaby comfortable, but it’s organic, gorgeous, and a great conversation starter! Oh, and dad can wear it, too!  It’s that cool.
