If you want to use it that long then you are better going with a ring sling. The pouch just isn't good for infant-toddler wear. When you have a toddler in one your stuck having them on your hip, VS putting them on your back, which you can do with a ring sling.

Yeah, I have done it for like 5-10 minutes, but it doesn't feel secure enough to me, with a wiggly toddler, to do it for very long. And definitely not comfortable enough.

Has anyone worn their baby while pregnant, mainly in the last couple of months? I haven't worn Mary in a long time.

I haven't(not been pregnant twice, lol) but I think a back carry would be pretty comfortable. I know lots of women who wear all the way through their pregnancy and then will occasionally wear two kids at once.

Ryan is not too keen on the back carry, but I was also wondering about the hip carry as well. I guess I will just need to try it and see how it works.

I have worn Noah on my back with an Ergo. It was still comfy.
Has anyone used the Ergo with an infant before? Using the insert you can buy for it?

I haven't used the Ergo, but I have used the Beco which is quite similar and they can be used with an infant. I wore my nephew several times, but the Beco Butterfly has a built in insert.

Beth has not been napping today (but she slept 12 hours straight last night), so Greg took her and Nathan out while I mowed the lawn. It's good exercise for me.
Anyways, Greg sent me a phone picture... he is wearing Beth and she conked right out against her daddy's chest. Love it!

Are you going to post the picture or leave us in suspense?

I've worn Isaiah recently.
Too big to wear him on my front, but I've done the back carry in my mei tie, and the hip carry for our hikes. Works just fine and is very comfortable. Actually easier for me then pushing the stroller.
I need to make myself a new wrap, I gave mine away because I love them so much LOL...sounds funny but I wanna share the awesomeness =P
Anyhoo. Once I make the wrap I'll be wearing him a lot more often.

I've tried wearing Mary on the hip hold with my Moby and I like it, but she is not a big fan. She is at that stage that she wants down and wants to run around.

You should get a woven one, Sandy. Much more supportive

hmmmm! I might just do that. I know I could ask for one as a birthday gift and get it...so maybe I'll pick out what I *Really really* want.

I wore my nephew on my back at about 8 weeks old. The Beco has a built in infant harness and it's taller so it gives better head support. I would totally wear Beth on my back :)

My babies fit in it in all different positions, and even when they were bigger I could use it for a hip carry, or to hold them close to me when they were sleeping. I have tried to re-create that sling but not managed. Maybe it's perfection was just a fluke, but it's worn out now so I will have to come up with something different if God gives us another baby. 
But it was extremely comfortable and very secure. And very versatile. It was definitely the best one I found for back carrying.
