I have a sport, love it, but I didn't use it til DD was 12 months+. The sport is 20% lighter than the Original.
The original is the same shape etc as the Organic, so for me the organic wins every time. Why buy plastic when you can get organic cotton?
Any reason why you didn't use it with your DD till she was 12 mths Lime? She didn't like it? I love the look of the green organic Ergo - at the top of my list thus far, unless I can be convinced otherwise .
I've seen the performance - but haven't really looked into it.
No, just didn't use a carrier until then - much much too hot in Perth the first 6 months of her life and then mum was sick etc and just wasn't focusing on finding one that worked.
We tried a sling, a comfy carry or something?, when she was little but she hated it, and tried a CC about 12 months also, but she was too big for it, found it very uncomfy and too stretchy for her at that size (11kg).
lol sorry, should have said that.
Yep you can use them from newborns, they have a new designed infant insert too which is apparently the bomb.
I will be using an organic from newborn this time, will let you know how it goes.
Do you want to borrow mine? I don't use it and its packed away in the shed somewhere but I can dig it out if you'd like it. I won't need it for aaaagggggeeeeessssss with this next one so you can keep it as long as you want.
Let me know!
ETA - I don;t have the newborn insert though so you might have to grab that.
I have the organic in whatever that neutral type colour is called... beige or fawn or whatever. I also have the heart to heart insert, and it's great - means I have been able to use it from birth, although I didn't use it til she was about 5 weeks old. The insert is really good as it just provides that little bit of extra head support for her, which is especially great when she's awake.
The sport does sound good, for the cool factor, but I find this one (wearing it right now) plenty cool enough, and I live in steamy Brissie.
