We were given a baby carrier a few days ago and I am trying it out today and I HATE it. Are mobys easier on your back and more comfortable? She looks very uncomfortable and this thing is killing my back and I put it on just 5 minutes ago. Thanks

moby's are great on your back because the weight of your baby is spread across your whole back not just one shoulder. i adore my moby, dd is still in the newborn hug hold (www.moby.com) position and she just sleeps so much better than in the stroller or carseat/stroller combo

I want one SOOOO bad. Its hard carrying her carrier everywhere and getting it in and out of the truck. I am going to see if my dad will loan me some money. I need soo many things for her. Well not need but I want some things sooo bad. :lol

My MIL bought infantino carrier.. She falls down inside it and the material on the side covers her mouth if I dont constantly adjust her differently.

Just wanted to say that I have seen the moby for sale at a chiropractors office. I see that as a pretty good sign that they are easy on your back!

yepyep. shes right! We have a moby and I LOOOOOVVE it!! We used it all the way untill Aiden was 8-9 months...we even went on a 6 MILE hike carrying him on us..we each did about 3 miles apiece with Aiden strapped to us and it really wasn't too bad at all! Its seems pretty complicated at first to tie it but once you figure it out its SO easy to just tie it up and go and take your baby in and out. Aiden loved being strapped to me facing outward so he could see all the people and places!:D
