Ergobaby Omni Deluxe Carrier - Cotton - Pearl Grey

I've been through three other carriers and this one finally doesn't dig into my shoulders, even with my 20-pound toddler. The padded waistband distributes the weight so evenly that I can wear it for our entire morning walk without any back pain.

The four-position setup is a lifesaver—I’ve switched from front-facing to back carry without waking the baby, and the cotton fabric breathes way better than I expected for long walks. It’s the only carrier that’s lasted through nap times and grocery runs without my shoulders aching.

The shoulder straps distribute weight so evenly that I forgot I was wearing it during a long afternoon at the farmers market. Swapping between the front and hip carries takes seconds, and the pearl grey cotton somehow hides spit-up better than any dark carrier I’ve owned.
