Ergobaby Embrace

Seconding the Ergobaby embrace. It's so easy to put on and take off and I don't have to think about it. I tried wraps and found it clumsy and I hated the extra fabric.

I loved the Ergo Embrace way more than the stretchy wrap, then the ring sling after I figured it out, around 2 months pp.

it's really amazing. I hate lugging out the stroller. Ergobaby is a great brand- we started with the embrace and moved onto the Omni classic. Go through posts on r/babywearing and learn how to wear properly! otherwise there's a good chance your baby will be uncomfortable or in an unsafe position. A LOT of people babywear incorrectly in public, but I've found that ergobaby carriers are relatively simple to use.

Ergo baby embrace! Love it

Ergo baby embrace for the early days

Ergobaby Embrace for newborn days, then Tula Free to Grow if you can find one in budget! Or Oscha Bairn if that style appeals to you more. I know how overwhelming it is, I skipped adding carriers to my registry because I couldn't figure it out at all. It ended up being kind of a blessing in disguise though, because I got a couple of hand me downs to try which helped narrow down what's most comfortable for me, and then I was able to get some amazing deals on used (but practically new) carriers.

Ergobaby Embrace for the newborn stage and some version of the Omni for beyond.

Ergo Embrace is very popular for newborns! Though I would still encourage you to give stretchy wraps a try! They definitely have a learning curve but once you are able to use them, you might find you really like them!

I like the ergo baby embrace for the new born phase (I didn't use until 6 weeks though cause I was scared he was too young for it) and later we used the ergo baby 360. I've never tried wraps but I might this time around. Just seemed like a lot of learning, time consuming / tightening. Structured carriers are my go to so I can use them outside the house too

Wraps are the most ergonomic and customizable way to carry newborns (can be done from day 1 even with tiny babes). What is it you don't trust about them? A lot of buckle carriers won't fit tiny babies and are actual suffocation risks if too big. Lennylamb Light, Didymos, Tula FTG are some that adjust down rather small and fit from around a few weeks old. The Ergobaby Embrace is a buckle carrier for newborns but will stop to fit after a few months.
