Organic Ergo Baby Carrier - Review

I sent Ergo Baby an email back before my Baby K's 1st birthday event to see if they wanted to be a sponsor.  Sadly I never heard back from them.  I figured since I was just starting out and I didn't have awesome numbers, at the time, that they did not want to work with me at that time.  I was fine with that :)  Then at the end of July I got the coolest email EVER!!!  It was from Ergo!!  They had switched a bunch of stuff around in the last few months and came across my request for a review and giveaway!!

I was so super excited that I screamed and scared the Hubby :)  He wanted to know what was up and I told him.  He knew that it was a big deal and was super excited for me!  I could not believe that an awesome company like Ergo was willing to work with SAH CD Mama!!!  So I received my awesome Ergo in the mail and have had the best contact emails with Christina from Ergo about the carrier!!  She sent me a Black Organic Ergo Baby Carrier ( super soft)!!  I was super happy for the Black carrier because now Hubby LOVES to carry Baby K every once in a while!  And I have loved following them everywhere :)  They keep me up to date on all their awesome products, giveaways and information on Baby Wearing on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest!!!

To Wear Or Not To Wear...That Is The Question

Is it a silly question?  Yes and NO!!  Not everyone believes in baby wearing and even some who do believe in it don't use the right type of carrier!  No this is not going to be a post about "You are doing it WRONG," this is going to be a post about how baby wearing helped when A was little and how I fell in LOVE with it with Baby K!

When A was born I knew NOTHING about ANYTHING when it came to having my own baby!  I knew the basics like most do but nothing very in depth.  I knew carriers were nice for little babies but that is about it.  When A was 1st born I don't even think I had a carrier for her.  I think not too long after she was born we bought a crotch dangler (Don't jump all over me :)  We didn't know any better 4 years ago!!!).  But A had really bad reflux when she was little until around 9 months.  So we would put her in the carrier and go for walks every night during her "fussy" time.  Within the 1st month after having A we bought a Dr. Sears Sling.  Hubby did a lot of research on reflux and Dr. Sears website and book were a go to for us.  That is where we found out about the sling.

A in her Dr. Sears Sling 4 years ago!
