Hi, I'm after a new carrier for my almost one year old DS and thought I wanted an SSC type like an Ergo or Manduca. Then one of my friends showed me her Macpac which she loves so now I'm not so sure! So thought I would canvas opinion on here about which might be better!
I was using a stretchy wrap, but had a fall a couple of months ago which has put me off front carrying a bit. I'm 5ft2 and small/medium build, and would like something that is easy to put DS in a back carry when on my own. I did try my friend's backpack with her toddler in it, and it was easy to get on but I found it quite heavy and too low down on me. Although I believe they do come in different sizes?
Has anyone used both, and if so which did you prefer? I think I'm leaning towards an SSC but do like how easy the backpack was to use. Plus DP would also use a backpack if we got one, but we are quite different in size and build so that might not work! Help!
