    Question Bubba Moe vs Ergo

    Hi, I'm trying to decide which of these to purchase. I find that I am needing a carrier to carry around my 14 month old who is having a rough time with teething and doesn't want to be put down. At 11kgs, he gets heavy after a while and I feel like my arms are going to drop off
    So I've looked around a bit, and narrowed it down to Bubba Moe or Ergo. Both can carry infants as well as toddlers, which suits me now for DS and July for the new bub.
    If anyone has any preferences for one over the other - any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!
    Thanks in advance

    I don't have any suggestions regarding a sling for a bubba that heavy, but I did want to say how much I love your ticker. That photo is GORGEOUS!!!

    We have an Ergo which is great for carrying my 12kg bubba around, can barely even feel she's in there, although front carry does pull a bit when I am trying to do things, if I am being active it's back carry, if I'm just running into kindy it's front carry.

    Not sure what a Bubba Moe is but I'm not sure how an Ergo wouldgo with a preggie belly as the hip/waist strap is what keeps bub in so it def needs to be donw up and carries most of the weight. I find with my post baby belly (yes still) I end up looking a bit like a pork roast if I'm not careful.

    I didn't think about comfort level with preggie belly.... I just want the pressure off my arms!!!!!

    Do you know anyone nearby that has one that you can try? I'd offer to send you one of ours to try but they cost a fortune to send :-)
