Hip Carrier?

[DWhittles]

How many of you parents have that hip carrier from one step ahead?
My son is 20 lbs and has trashed my lower back. Standing in lines with him in the Bjorn isn't an option as much as I wish that it was.
I've read a few posts praising this thing but I'd like to hear more before I purchase it!

I'm one of "the believers" of the OSA Carrier. It is awesome!

My son was a butterball and quickly outgrew the Bjorn (which I also loved!). I bought this after reading the reviews at OSA and have been very happy with it.

It's easy to use, folds up nicely and is self-contained. It will easily fit in a diaper bag or large purse.

My son now tips the scales at 30 lbs, and it's still great to use. I'll be packing mine for our trip in 3 weeks!!!

I think I'm one of the ones to originally mention it to you..I recognize that adorable baby!!

I love this product and wish more people knew about it. It's soooo much easier and lighter that a full front carrier. We would leave it wrapped around our waist and just drop the neck strap off while we rode rides. You did not feel like you had a piece of equipment on you!! I think the hip carrier is perfect for your size baby. Our 17mo even slept in it...just resting his head on your shoulder.

Thanks Disfam!
I still think PJ is the best kid g oing but then I'm really biased aren't I?
I'm going to order the hip carrier...It sounds great!

DS will be 20 mo on our trip and I'm definitely bringing ours. He loves to be up close with "mama".
