Toddler Patapum vs. Regular Patapum vs. Classic Ergo

[megulis]

I was wondering if anyone can enlighten me on the differences between these three? I have had a Classic Ergo and actually prefer it to the NG. I would like to spend money only on one carrier but am hesitant on the Patapum since they have two sizes. Does that mean I need to buy another one when the baby is older?

TIA!

The toddler Patapum has a long body, as long as a Kozy body. It would work fine in a front carry for a smaller baby, IMO, but a back carry before 8ish months would be tough, I think, unless you had a big baby. That said, I think its the most comfy of all that style carrier for a back carrier in an older kid. (I have owned them all, lol) I didn't like the short body on the classic Ergo.

Now I am more confused. Thanks for the reply. You have given me more things to think about.
