BABYBJÃ?â?"RN Baby Carrier Air - Gray/ White

My son was born 9 lbs 4 oz and we have been using this item since the very begining. We love it. Unlike other slings and carriers, this one can be worn by both me and my 6ft 4in husband with little adjustments. Babies love to be close to you and on your chest, the rocking movement as you walk puts them right to sleep when they are young and later they get to learn and enjoy the world at the same eye level as you, which I found my son gets less frustrated than in the stroller. The carrier is really practical when we shop. We do not have to worry about any stranger coming up and touch the baby and we can go anywhere with our two free hands.

I was so excited to have a carrier for my 1st child. I had heard such wonderful things about the baby bjorn carriers. I received this one as a gift. I followed the directions to a T and was off and running. My infant was 8 lbs. I managed to wear it for about 30 min the first time and had to take him out. My back was really hurting. I waited a few weeks and tried it again... still got a sore back. I went back to the directions, I re-adjusted the straps and needed tylenol that night. Maybe this just wasn't the right carrier for me. $90 down the drain.....
