Diehard Bjornies, rejoice
No matter how you feel about babywearing, one thing is certain: The BabyBjorn is a very popular carrier. From the shelves of Babies R Us to the celebrity pages of US Weekly, Bjorns are instantly recognizable even to folks who think a mei tai is an alcoholic drink with a small umbrella in it.

Many families are understandably distraught when their baby sizes out of the Bjorn, a time that can come way too early if Junior is a chunk. You'll be happy to know that BabyBjorn now has a solution in the BabyBjorn Comfort Carrier, a buckle carrier created to last until age two, or from 13 to 31 pounds.

Much like the traditional Bjorns, the Comfort Carrier includes an over-the-head design and adjustable side snaps. In this case though, your baby can face inwards or outwards by changing an attached zipping panel. I found the carrier comfortable, ergonomic, and sturdy particularly for an inward-facing toddler, and the padded waist and shoulders definitely helped keep the weight off my back which is often a complaint with traditional Bjorns.

There is a learning curve however, and I must admit that the carrier can be complicated and bulkier than some other options--I wouldn't want to be caught wearing it without the baby, if you get my drift. But if you're a diehard Bjorn fan, I think you'll be pleased with a toddler carrier that does everything the old Bjorn does and more. ~Delilah
