It was fine for the first few months but, once he hit 17 lbs the shoulder pain was just out of control. We did a bunch of research online and found lots of positive reviews for the Ellaroo Mei Hip. I ordered it and have truly never looked back. It is so incredibly comfortable, even now when he is far heavier. (He is nearly a year old now.) All of the weight is down on my hip and I regularly walk the 3 mile path around the lake by my house with him on my hip with very little effort and no pain. It also packs so small & light that it is really easy to keep in the diaper bag and pull out whenever we get somewhere in the car. A great product! 1 of 2 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

Then before we left the house for the day I decided to give it a test run with my baby in it before we left and I am so glad I did! As soon as I placed him in it- I hated it! It made him sit so low that it was very uncomfortable. Then I tried to put the straps around my waist line instead of my hips and the straps had to be so tight around to keep him up that it was very uncomfortable! The shoulder strap was also very little. Would be good for someone who has a little shoulder and a VERY tall toddler. still on the hunt for that perfect...Read more 0 of 1 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Ellaroo Mei Hip Baby Carrier - Mango/Mahogany (Baby Product) If you have a chance to try one of these out to make sure that it will make you and your child happy then do that before ordering. It is a nice idea but there are better carriers, slings that do the same thing, are more comfortable, and are a cheaper. I ended up selling it on Ebay. |
