Finding a baby carrier

Okay, so I have tried almost all of the baby carriers except the one that wraps around. I used a sling when Troy was a newborn until about 3 months old. Then I bought a bijorn style one that straps them on the front but his legs are getting too meaty and it makes red marks on his thighs when I take him out.

I was at Target today and got a jelly bean that you can put them on your hip and its kinda like a sling but I am not sure if I like it. I was at USA baby and almost bought one of those wrap around ones but it was $60! That is crazy! Really? Because the material has UV protection, that’s what the sales lady said, anyway.

I’m about to go on eBay and see what I can find. The problem is my 6 month old is 20 lbs! So the sling cuts into my shoulder and that is why I switched to the other one. I guess I just make big babies! He is growing so fast. I am going to have to find one of those wrap around ones for cheaper than $60. So the hunt begins.
