what's the best baby "backpack" or carrier to use??

aidensmomm

I have an 8 month old, and I'm 5 months pregnant with my second child; I'm having a hard time carrying my baby now, especially up and down 3 flights of stairs, and it's breaking my heart...which carrier would be the best for me in my condition? I don't want to have to rely on other people to keep carrying MY child.

Answer
If any of your friends have carriers I would definitely ask them if you can try them out for the day. I bought a 3 way carrier for my son (ie front facing you, front facing out or on ur back) but found it was difficult to put on (clips AND velcro) got quite hot and hurt my back. I had the opportunity to try my sis-in-laws Ergo carrier recently and it was great! So comfortable & barely felt like I was carrying him (9kgs worth of 10 month old!) Am definitely buying an Ergo for the next bub (or maybe even this one yet!) They also have a hiking-type backpack - the kind with a frame - for their 15 month old & he loves it & my brother says it's awesome.

What are those backpacks that have a strap that goes across your chest called?

Answer
I'm not sure if you're going for a messenger bag, but if so, messenger bag, haha. If not, there's not a specific name for them but they are generally used while backpacking or long hiking trips. For these, they come in internal frame(being a bit smaller) or external frame (being a bit more cumbersome.) Here's a link of what I'm talking about.

They are listed under extended trip and weekend trip backpacks.

Hope I helped! :)
