The Ergo baby carrier is so beautiful I've seen it and I really like it! It feels soft and padded enough for my baby! My daughter is Victoria Marie, she is 15 months old and she is very active. We take walks together and I could use the carrier to take her to the park, to travel, etc. But mainly I need this because I am expecting my second child.. And since Victoria is walking already, my other one can use it too! I love carrying babies in carriers much more than strollers. It is almost as if you were carrying them in your arms :)
by antonellaj86 @ May 3, 2012, 8:41 a.m.After being a stay at home mom for almost 2 years, I have suddenly become a single mom. I would love to win this carrier because I feel that it would make my life a little easier going out with my daughter, Rebecca (She'll be 2yrs this month!). Taking her out when she falls asleep in the car is always hard. She would actually stay asleep in this! I know nothing but good things about Ergo. So I hope I win. <3
by MRossiter @ May 3, 2012, 8:42 a.m.My oldest munchkin Marlee, is 18 months old and full of energy! Our second munchkin is due July 22nd, 2012 and I think I will be needing a carrier once she arrives. I'm a stay at home Mom so we go to the park everyday and this carrier would surely be a help when I have both out and about by myself. Thank You for this opportunity as these are not on the lower end price wise.
by cbird143 @ May 3, 2012, 8:43 a.m.My son Owen is 17 months going on 30 and every day is an exhausting, fun, action-packed adventure. He's small but has a LOT of energy and walking the dog is a lot more complicated than it used to be now that Owen always comes along for the ride. He gets bored in his stroller so an Ergo baby carrier would make my life MUCH easier during our puppy stroll time.
by ericanahmad @ May 3, 2012, 8:54 a.m.I would love to win the Ergo baby carrier because I am expecting baby #2 in September and I think I am going to be doing a lot of baby wearing so that I can chase after my 2.5 year old son, Miles!
by dmalvehy @ May 3, 2012, 9:38 a.m.I'd love to use the Ergo with my second child, who is due in July. With my first baby I didn't think I needed a carrier so I ended up holding him - a lot! This time around I'll be dealing with a new baby while trying to keep up with a toddler so I know I'll need my hands free. Plus, every friend who's owned one has told me the Ergo is the best carrier out there!
by MiamiHousewife @ May 3, 2012, 10:57 a.m.My life as a mommy can get pretty crazy. I have a 3 weeks old and big sister is only 15 months, we have very little family where we live wich means that when husband is at work, i am pretty much on my own. It doesn't matter how complicated things may look sometimes, at the end time goes by fast and I i am determined to enjoy my babies, so i always take advantage of anything that can let me make things smoother in our daily lives, and gives us more quality time, and thats why i am so in love with the idea of having this carrier!
by pamelaespinal @ May 4, 2012, 9:16 a.m.Hi my name is Yanci and I am the lucky mother of two little girls, Isabella age 4 and Sophia age 2. I am expecting my third little girl in July named Alina. I would really love to win the ego baby carrier. My family is a very hands on on the go-go family we enjoy trips out in nature to te beach even know hiking. I believe that this carrier would not only look sophisticated but be useful to the max. I love the fact that it not only caters to a child's infant needs but also makes it very useful when carrying the child with accessories for teething. I love the fact that it would be a very easy carrier to wear but also a very comfortable carrier for not only myself but for my girls an even hubby can wear it and it can be a plus.
by Bebetg @ May 4, 2012, 12:27 p.m.The Ergo is the bomb! I'm a big believer in baby wearing! My Ergo served me very well with my first two. But, after hard wear for four years, it is totally trashed now and #3 is a whopping 18lbs at 4 months old. She's been in the moby wrap which is super for newborns, but oh the Ergo is soooo much better. Chaya, our baby, would love to win this! thanks! Great giveaway!!!!!

I can't say enough good things about the Ergo. I wore my 1st munchkin(Hannah) in it until she'd outgrown it and now I wear #2(Zoe) in it all the time. Ergo's smart design is super comfortable and doesn't stress out your back because it distributes the weight evenly and properly. It is also great for bf babies, you just snap on the top flap and feed discreetly. My babies loved being worn and I also loved having my hands free. In addition to all those great features, it also has a front zipper for keys, wallet, etc. Hands down- best carrier on the market.
by robinflkeys @ May 5, 2012, 2:27 p.m.OMG!! this is perfect!! I have 2 little monsters ;-) one is almost 4 and the other almost 1 and the truth is that this will be sooooo handy! we have a Baby Bjorn but it works with the small one only... you say that this beauty can handle up to 45Lb. It will be perfect. My "big girl" is soooo jealous sometimes because she is not being held as much as the little brother so we (I) end up carrying her also but is very very hard... It will be great! to win the Ergo Baby Carrier

by Vaniushi @ May 5, 2012, 8 p.m.I am a mother of 2. I have a 3 yr old and my baby is almost 1. I never used a carrier with my baby because I had a baby Bjorn and it was so uncomfortable. But I recently heard the Ergo is amazing even for big kids. I often have to walk the dog with both kids and its hard to manage. This would be a great solution!! I'm also going to be traveling alone with both kids and this would be so helpful on the plane ride!
by Ha @ May 6, 2012, 8:21 p.m.FREE HANDS!!! ENOUGH SAID!!! There's nothing like a set of free hands!!! I am a full time employee and not to mention a super full time mom - don't we wish there were more hrs to a day ;) . I'm always on the go and would greatly make good use of this Ergo. I currently have a 3 yr old and a 4 month old and would love to put the baby in one of these while I play with my toddler. This would make life soooo much easier. Thanks for taking the time to read this, I hope you can make my life easier by granting me an Ergo.
by jagre0012 @ May 7, 2012, 7:36 a.m.I recommend the Ergo over the Bjorn to anyone who'll listen. And now that my sister's expecting I want her to have one too!
by serena @ May 7, 2012, 10:11 a.m.I am about to have my second baby and an Ergo would be a huge help with keeping up with my 3 year old! I've heard Ergos are great carriers but never had a chance to try one.
by Claire @ May 7, 2012, 11:04 p.m.Hi! My name is Alex and I'm a new mom to be! We find out in the first week of June what we will be having. If we are having a girl her name will be Amelia Grace after my grandma, and if its a boy we'll see, we don't have a name picked out yet. Anyway, my husband and I are both very active people. We both played sports in college and this is where we met! Anyway, throughout my pregnancy I've kept up 20 miles a week in walking, and played some coed softball until I was restricted by my doctor. I know without a doubt we will be a very active family, going on walks together, camping, etc. This being said, I've looked into several baby carriers and the Ergobaby is by far my favorite. This item will be a huge asset to our family and allow us to do several family outings together for the first time! What I also loved about this specific carrier, its compatible for my husband so we can take turns holding our baby close, while holding hands. Even though the only memories I have may be pregnancy symptoms, the Ergobaby will be a life-changer for our family. Its a perfect fit and the only carrier we feel will benefit our family. The Ergobaby will help start our new memories together as a family. We can't wait! Thanks for reading!
by aramirez1s @ May 9, 2012, 10:35 a.m.I have been lusting over the Ergo carriers for the past couple years, but haven't been able to buy one yet. I have 3 children and have an in home daycare. I NEED this carrier! I have been baby wearing since our oldest was born almost 7 years ago and the Ergo is my favorite that I've tried. I borrowed one from a friend when I took 3 one year olds to the zoo by my self to help chaperone my son's first grade field trip- crazy, I know! The Ergo was a lifesaver!!! Thanks for this awesome giveaway!
by Treyh730 @ May 9, 2012, 8:56 p.m.We have a two year old daughter and we love to go hiking on trails. She doesn't last long but she really enjoys the adventure. We will be moving this summer and will be near mountains so we need a good quality carrier if we want to be able to keep hiking!
by Camdyn @ May 9, 2012, 10:53 p.m.We used our Ergo ALL the time with my daughter when she was a baby. In fact, she rarely sat in a stroller. The snuggles were so wonderful! :) Now, with our second baby, we use a carrier, as well, but it's not nearly as beautiful and comfy as this one. I know we'd use this one for years for my newest little snuggler. :) Thanks for the awesome opportunity! :)
by jgoldstein7 @ May 9, 2012, 11 p.m.My husband is currently deployed and will be having a lot of deployments in the next few years. I need my hands free as much as possible to be able to keep up with the kids and the house on my own. My baby loves to be held so I really need this...and then a new excuse for a messy house!
by Gili48 @ May 9, 2012, 11:18 p.m.We are taking our family of 5 along with tons of luggage on a flight to visit family this summer. I would be ecstatic to leave the clunky stroller at home and have this carrier for our youngest instead. Thank you so much for this giveaway (and to my crazy sister-in-law who woke me up to tell me about it!)
