I have been babysitting for my friends baby girl off/on since she was born, and am going to be doing it more in the next few months. The baby is pretty high needs, and has a lot of trouble sleeping. Today when I got there the mom was nursing her and then she fell asleep for about 45 mins. She was still really tired when her mom left. When I put her into her stroller to take a walk she got really upset, and she was still upset just being held. She really likes to be held close and she liked being next to me. I put her into her mom's Ergo and got her to fall asleep and she slept for an hour. She was really comfortable but I don't really like the Ergo. It isn't really comfortable for me. I don't mind buying another carrier, I would like to spend $75 or less though.
She is 5 months old, about 15 lbs. She has very good head control, is almost sitting up. I have neck issues and some back problems so something that has a lot of support is good. I don't mind something that wraps, as long as it isn't too annoying to put on/off. I have used an Ergo and a baby Bjorn before, but I have never used any other carriers. I don't want a sling, I want something that goes on both shoulders. I have a lot of stores in the area so I could probably find any carrier available.
Thanks
