Ergo Baby Carrier
Price Range: $92.00 - $105.00 from 3 stores
The ERGO Baby Carrier supports the growth of your child's spine by carrying them in a seated position. Most of your baby's weight is dispersed between the hips and thighs which helps to eliminate compression of the spine when hanging by the crotch. You and your baby will love to feel your bodies so close.
