Baby carriers that are worth the price

Claire

I'm due with #2 in December and with a 2.5 year old I'll need to baby wear for sure. I already have a solly wrap for around the house but need something for venturing out in the world (the few times we ever do now a days). I've tried to read other posts about what others recommend but I never know how old the posts actually are.

I've looked into ergo baby, baby Bjorn and lillebaby and just don't know which ones are worth the ridiculous price. I would like a carrier I can use right away with a newborn but I don't need a bunch of bells and whistles. What worked best for you?
