What type of baby carrier worked best for you?

The tie style carrier worked okay for us up to about 6 months and then got unwieldy (although we still used it). Started using a frame hiking carrier around 2 years and its been a life saver for places where it would be awkward to take a stroller.

Structured carriers are my favorite! My Kinderpack and Tula are truly hands free, and I can comfortably wear baby/toddler/preschooler for hours. Perfect for theme parks, hiking, museums, and the zoo!

I loved my Baby Bijorn when my kids were babies. The tie carries definitely intimidated me!

I tried to use it but she hated it! We used it once or twice to shop but that was it.

I needed a carrier that wasn't too big for me and can be adjusted for my size and baby's; after researching so many carriers, I found the Lillebaby carrier worked out great for my little one and I.

Structured carriers for us! however I wish I had a wrap carrier if seems to be so easy to transport not as much bulky in the diaper bag and easier to wear.

They can be difficult to figure out at first, but I swear by a Moby wrap carrier with my babies. It's become my go-to gift because they're easy to size and there are tons of easy to find YouTube videos with instructions.

I used ring slings and wraps when my kids were tiny, but then found it most comfortable to use a structured carrier. None of my 3 have wanted anything to do with the carrier past about 9 months though - they all hate being restrained and seem uncomfortable with the lack of movement when they're in the carrier. I wish they'd let me carry them more!

We love our hiking pack carrier for actually hiking -- even now, when my son is 21 months! But it was the Lillebaby or a Moby wrap for everyday use. I found them each to have advantages in different situations.
