Baby Carrier Recommendations

I just asked a question about helpful hints for when baby number 2 arrives and someone that responded kindly mentioned a baby sling to help out. I think this is an awesome idea and actually meant to ask this a while back but lo and behold pregnancy brain kicked in and I forgot =) When we were shopping for baby items for my first we bought a Moby sling (the large and long stretchy piece of fabric that can be tied many ways) and I HATED it. It was in my opinion the biggest waste of $60. I found it very hard to tie to where if felt...

Taking a 1 Year Old to a Baseball Game

Hi Moms! My hubby and I are taking our 1 year old son (yeah!!) to his first Tigers game this weekend for his birthday. Just wondering...should we take a stroller, get a backpack carrier(which we were going to do anyways for other future events) or just carry him? The problem is he is 26 pounds and between the two of us it can be exhausting. I am planning on doing more walking around than sitting, depending on how his day is going obviously. Any other advice besides the sunscreen, ,hat, etc. would be great as well. Thanks! H.

Recommendations on Baby Carriers?

I'm just about due to have my second (2 weeks!) and I'm looking for a baby carrier. With my first I had the Baby Bjorn and hated it. I'm very short-waisted and petite and his head was up in my face and his legs were in the way of me walking. So, not using it for number 2. I'm wondering if there are any ladies out there who are like me who have used a carrier successfully. I've been looking at the Ergo and the Beco but I'm also open to slings, too. I just thought I'd ask you wonderful women what you liked and didn't like. THANKS!!
