I am a babywearing addict. There… I admit it. I love babywearing and I love the baby gear
that goes with baby wearing. I enjoy trying out different types of baby
carriers, but my favorite is the soft structured carrier. I love the support
and security I feel when wearing a soft structured carrier and I love the
variety of ways I am able to comfortably wear my child. Since most of the time
I am on my own with all three of my little ones, I need a carrier I can put on,
take off, and adjust without any help and the BABYBJÖRN Baby
Carrier One in Silver Mesh makes
babywearing easy and comfortable for both baby and me {Thank you BABYBJÖRN
for sending me a #BabyCarrierOne in Silver Mesh for the purposes of review}.

When BABYBJÖRN offered to send me the BABYBJÖRN
Baby Carrier One in silver mesh
to test out I was thrilled. Illinois summers can be ridiculously hot and a
breathable mesh carrier is something I have been wanting for quite some time. I
like to babywear year round, but during the summer when I am constantly on the move I like to babywear so that I can get where I
need to go faster and get what I need to get done more efficiently. It also
makes spending time with all three of my children at the park or the flea
market or the amusement park manageable.
The BABYBJÖRN
Baby Carrier One in Silver Mesh:
The mesh material is
incredibly breathable, making this carrier a summer essential for me. Seriously,
the BABYBJÖRN Baby
Carrier One in Silver Mesh is always with me
{I keep it in the car so that I know that I have it wherever we go.}. The mesh is
also really soft. So it is really comfy for both baby and parent.
The entire baby carrier
is machine washable. HUGE!!! Since my daughter is teething this is especially
important now more than ever.
You can switch from the
front carry position to the back carry position completely unassisted all by
the simple switching of strap positions. While the manual provides easy to
follow directions for this, I actually prefer to watch the instructional video.
Just like the BABYBJÖRN Baby
Carrier One, the BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier One in Silver Mesh has a
special zipper system that allows the carrier to be altered to accommodate
newborns and small children {newborn position} as well as bigger babies and
toddlers {Baby/Toddler Position} – thus eliminating the
need to have an additional newborn insert. It is incredibly easy to use.
There is a leg zipper that allows a natural
leg position for newborns {0-4 months} facing inward and for children 5 months
and older in an outward facing position and a normal {wide} leg position for
babies 4-36 months. My children have never liked to face out unless they were
sitting on my lap, and I have used this carrier to help me in just such
situations. My daughter outward faced in my lap during a recent trip to the zoo
during the dolphin show and loved it!
I love the BABYBJÖRN Baby
Carrier One in Silver Mesh and plan on using
it pretty exclusively all summer long thanks to how incredibly breathable it
is. I love how
easy it is to use unassisted. With three little ones 5 years
old and under – user friendliness in products is mandatory. My
only suggestions for possible improvements to this carrier would be a latch or
snap of some kind for the head support when it is in the folded down position
as it is a bit stiff and does not stay down. But that is
truly it when it comes to suggestions for improvements. I love this carrier and
highly recommend it. It is a summer essential that I could not do without!

I
do most of the baby wearing in our family. I love the snuggles I get when
babywearing and enjoy the bonding time that babywearing provides. But
babywearing is not just for moms, my husband will babywear as well. Since the BABYBJÖRN Baby
Carrier One in
Silver Mesh is gender neutral as well as comfortable dads can enjoy it too. I
am curious, who does the babywearing in your family and where do you like to
babywear?
