Gearhead Mom

I am a toy gearhead. I am a mom. Therefore, I am Gearhead Mom. I review the good, the bad and the (often) ugly in the world of baby and childhood gear.

Ouch

Posted by Missy W. @ 4:51 AM

Dude. I totally pinched a nerve carrying Baby G around in the Baby Bjorn, which I have a feeling was user error. I used that thing constantly with Sy til she was about eight months old (and then switched to the Ergo). I’ll have to write a review of the Bjorn, which I genuinely like, but not today. Today I can barely move, let alone type and be pithy.

My Baby Bjorn is killing me… I think it’s time to move on.  What do you recommend next?  The Ergo?

I cannot wear my second one in the Bjorn, it is probably me being older this time. I LOVE my Ergo though.

that’s not user error, that’s design error.  that thing puts way too much strain on neck and shoulder muscles.  i never tried the ergo newborn insert, but it looks like a pain to use.  why not try a mei tai or pouch if it’s not Ergo-time yet. Babyhawk makes a very good mei tai, and Kangaroo Korner has a wonderful pouch. (i used a wrap, but admittedly, it’s not for everyone.)
