    BabyBjörn Baby Carrier Original - City Black Editorial Review:
    Baby Bjorn Baby Carrier The Baby Bjorn Baby Carrier is a favorite of parents throughout the world. It allows parents to keep the baby close and secure while at the market, doctor or any other place. It is a baby infant carrier which can be used right from the very first week. As long as the baby weighs 8 lbs. and is 21 in. long, the Baby Bjorn Carrier may be used. The child carrier from Baby Bjorn holds the baby upright and features a strong back and neck support. It grows with baby thanks to an adjustable buckle which gives maximum comfort for all ages. The carrier is easy to put on and remove because all the adjustments are made in the front. Most parents love the unique Baby Bjorn feature which allows the button to be unbuttoned at the front of the carrier and lay down without waking up. As the child grows it allows for forward facing placement. The seat height on the Baby Bjorn Baby Carrier is also adjustable and the wide straps evenly distribute weight for comfort. This Baby Bjorn carrier has won the Silver Award and Design of the Decade ISDA, 1999 as one of the 36 products of the decade. The Baby Bjorn infant carrier has also won several awards in the United Kingdom.

    Customer Reviews:
    Great for newborns, a little overrated.
    Although I received this at my shower, I wound up returning it and getting $70 worth of necessities, as several people offered to let us use their Baby Bjorn's. Apparently, none of my cousins found them to be very comfortable beyond 4-5 months. That said- this product was an absolute blessing for us during the first three months of our daughter's life. It enabled me to do laundry, dust, and do dishes while she slept contentedly. There are a just a few things that bother me about this well-made carrier:

    - the back straps cross in an 'x', and the directions say to ear these lower on your back, between your shoulder blades. Although we would try to adjust these evenly before putting the bjorn on, they inevitably slip after wearing baby while moving around, resulting in a strained back and looser fit, where baby hangs off the chest a bit more than I like.

    - the price is honestly a bit too much, especially for accessories. a drool bib is a great idea, as the carrier is at mouth level and irresistible, but putting a regular bib on the babe and letting it drape over works just as wall.

    - although the babe loves facing out, she almost always falls asleep, leaving her little head to wobble around. I wish there was an option to pull up a hood to remedy this so I wouldn't have to remove her and wake her up.

    - I don't know how to get around this, exactly, but their little legs dangle exactly at counter/washer level. I'm always afraid I'm going to bruise her. I know, this is a front carrier, so not much one can do about that.

    If you plan on using this for more than one baby, it's a great buy. Much easier to use than a sling, durable, gender neutral. I'd give it 5 stars, but I feel it's kind of a short-term thing.

    Baby Likes!
    This carrier is great. I love it. Baby loves it. Life is good. she loves facing out and looking around. I was using a sling.. which is OK when they are really small. When they get bigger watch out! Your shoulders will KILL you! I got this for a trip and used it on a 7 hour flight! It really helped. So yes I would recommend it. For those of you who have already tried something else you should consider this carrier. Even if it isn't exactly what you are looking for it still beats most carriers out there. Not to mention the price on amazon is great! Happy travels :)

    Not for tall parents....
    Everyone I know raved about this product, told me I had to have it and would love it. Every time I used the BabyBjorn my baby cried and she doesn't cry about much. Added to that my husband who is 6'8 cannot wear it--the straps are too short. We ended up using a sling. If your husband is tall--try it on in a store before you buy.

    The Perfect Gift for the mom with a "Cranky" Baby!
    My niece is pregnant with her first baby so when it came time for her baby shower I picked the "gift that saved my sanity" when I was home alone with him (after working full-time as a teacher). The BabyBjorn front Carrier is very similar to the one my sister had given me! Whenever it got towards dinner prep time that was always the time when my infant wanted my undivided attention. I would put him in the carrier and he could be "up close and personal" (which is all he wanted) and then I could work on dinner and actually sit down to eat with my husband.
    So when I spotted the BabyBjorn Carrier it hit me that this would be the PERFECT gift for me to give to the new mom-to be. It's very appropriate for me to give her the gift I used daily that first year soooo many years ago!

    Not for heavy babies
    I bought this carrier before my son was born and it worked great for almost two months. I liked that he could face forward but... he put on weight very fast and wearing the baby bjorn was simply unbearable! I then bought the Ergo carrier and my son and I are comfortable and happy and we can continue to comfortably use it until he is 50 lbs (not that I will...lol.) I would not recommend buying this somehow very popular product because there is no telling how long you will be able to use it and it is very hard on the lower back.
