The Embrace is the newest carrier from Ergo Baby.  Unlike their other carriers that work best from 2 or 3 months ish right through to 2.5 years... this carrier is designed to really fit that newborn and younger baby stage.  It works really well right from birth and will last you till around 1 yearContinue reading "Ergo Baby Embrace Review"

Probably seems a little harsh to say about a pretty decent, ergonomic, simple carrier aimed at newborns but I don’t generally recommend the Baby K’Tan for one simple reason - It’s sized.  It does not adjust to fit different sized parents, instead you need to buy the correct size to fit you.  There are aContinue reading "Why I don't recommend the Baby K'Tan"
