I need to thank you guys.
Lachute - thanks for letting me know I could not carry LO in a front carry > 20 lbs; H-dubs and ering - I would have otherwise just ordered a Pikkolo from amazon had you not given me the quirkybaby rec. I decided to call and ask for a recommendation. I left a message at like 4:45 pm yesterday (Friday), she called back within a few minutes and told me it wouldn't be a good purchase for us at this point. I ended up ordering a Scootababy last night but her site is awesome - wish I had known about this months ago.
Anywho, she said Ergo back carry is my best option and [womp, womp] time to retire the Peanut Shell and Moby. I'll give the Scootababy a try for a better hip carry when he wants to see the world.
Appreciate it!
