OK....I might be asking too much out of a carrier, but I could use some good suggestions (as it seems a lot of carriers aren't available in stores to try out).....
Our son is 4 months old and while we love our Baby Bjorn, he's getting a bit heavy for it. So, we would like something comfortable, safe, not a sling (DH doesn't feel comfortable wearing the Maya Wraps or Ella Roos), with an option to wear on the hip (if possible), and able to be used for a growing child.. First we leaned towards the HipHugger, but wondered if it would have enough support for a sleeping baby.Then, we went to the Sutemi, but is it bulky/difficult? We checked out the Ergo and it's okay, but we like a hip option. It seems that everything we look up on the boards has people who love/hate it. So, I'm asking for a few suggestions/recommendations based on our needs. Thanks!
