Baby carrier advice

[HonestOtter]

I'd like a baby carrier that I can just on my front and as a backpack as baby gets bigger. I've seen the Infantino Flip Ergo 4 in 1 Baby Carrier which seems ok and is reasonably priced but I didn't know if I was missing anything obvious. Do I have to take my (short) height into consideration so it fits comfortably? Are there any other nice baby carriers that aren't extremely expensive? Help please

@HonestOtter I'd suggest finding a sling/carrier library in your area.

They have ALL the carriers and you can try them on and get advice all in one place.

I've just had a look and can't see one local to me.

A sling library is your best bet as different carriers suit different people. I’d be surprised if they is one in your area. There is an online library ‘It’s a sling thing’ that you can hire from. Ergo-baby’s are very good in general but only but direct or from somewhere like John Lewis as there are so many fakes online.

I've got an ergo baby 360 it's really good. If you go to John Lewis you can try the slings on with your baby to see which is most comfortable.
