So here’s a question for all you baby carrying mothers… fathers too! How important is it to you to buy an organic baby carrier rather than one made from synthetic materials? Personally, I tend to shop based on price and value – so I want a quality product at a fair price.

Hi everyone, I'd like to share some tips that I found on the internet. These might help you learn to trust your baby carrier before putting your baby in one. I hope you find these tips helpful!...Tip 1: Try carrying a bag of potatoes or a heavy doll in the carrier to get the hang of it.

I know what you mean about the Bjorn not having pockets! You probably bought it a while ago, and my guess is that perhaps they actually have add-ons now. The Ergo definitely has an add on front pouch for holding things...you can check them out at the accessories at:  http://www.ergobabycarriers.com/babycarriers/category/accessories/  Hope this helps! Steve  ...
