Baby back carriers and sleeping babies!

I've have spent so many hours scouring the internet looking for the ultimate back carrier & I still can't decide! I've read the review section & the previous message & the Bushbaby seems a hot favourite, but my ds sleeps alot when out & the Bushbaby & many others I've looked at don't seem high at the back to support his head/neck. The GS60/GS90 appears to be higher, does anyone out there have one of these? Any comments about carriers and sleeping babies welcome! Unfortunately it seems we don't have many outlets near us (Leicester) to go and have a look at a good range of different products.

Hi Jane64.
I have to tell you that the only comfortable back carrier is the Ergo. The reason for this is because it is that it has no metal weighing it down, the waist strap distributes the baby/toddlers weight so there is hardly any on the shoulders, the baby/toddler is seated rather than dangling which prevents spinal problems and general discomfort, it has a head support section which tucks away in the pocket and it looks really nice as well.
The site mentioned below (ahem ) hires them out so you can always try it first. Although it is Ergo silly hire season atm so you may have no choice of the colour you want to hire.
Baby has to be able to sit up to use it though btw.
