I have a 4 month old baby and use a wilkinet carrier which is great and really comfortable to wear. but I find the tying up and adjusting a bit of a pain and when she is 6 months I want to be able to carry her on my back.

I have just sold a framed back carrier that I used for my older children and was too uncomfortable for wearing for long.

So how do I choose between the papatum and Ergo (aside form price as Papatum is cheaper). My requirements are comfort and ease of use - can anyone make any suggestions? Really appreciate it as keen to buy.

Thank you!

The ergo is so easy to put on which is so refreshing after trying to deal with mei-tai-style carriers which give me a headache. Plus I demand feed my baby so I need to have her in a carrier that allows easy access for breastfeeding. If you breastfeed your baby, then being able to do this on the move, hands-free is life changing! Once she is weaned I'll put her in the back carrier position or hip position.

I use a Rose and Rebellion carrier and love it they are so much more exciting looking than the Ego or Patapum and are very comfortable I've been through a good few carriers now and haven;t found one that beats the comfort and look of my Rose and Rebellion I've just bought another one to keep in the car in their sale they have on at the moment. The nice thing is they are made in Britain as well and with the way the economy is I think it's good to support British businesses. Here's the link www.roseandrebellion.com
