When my son was born we were keen to carry him, we bought at omy rodeo freestyle carrier and hates it. It was hard to use, uncomfortable and didn't feel secure. So, when dd was born after much research we bought a bushbabycocoon. In a word it is fantastic. Both myself and my husband suffer from sciatica and bad backs and we could carry our daughter with ease and comfortably. It wasa life saver indoors and out doors. If you have a cling or colicky baby, it's ideal to pop them in round the house so you're hands free and they feel secure. When out and about it's so much easier then lugging a buggy everywhere especially if you rely on public transport.
We had a tandem buggy for our children and quickly found it much easier to put our toddler in a buggy and our baby in the bushbaby. We could walk for miles with her in that and we successfully carried her in it until she was ten months old. We only stopped because we switched to a mei-taisling.
the bushbaby is ideal for anyone interested in babywearing yet only fancy a structured carrier.
It's easy to put on and off and very adjustable easily and quickly so both myself and my husband could use it.
It had a unique pull out rain/sunshade and a handy pocket which i found perfect for storing my purse and phone in!
Our daughter felt secure in it at all times and we felt secure enough to be truly hands free.
The only minor disadvantage is that we found as our daughter got bigger it became uncomfortable to wear her facing outwards, yet luckily for us she preferred to face inwards anyway.
All in all a highly recommended purchase.
Ideally i'd recommend a more traditional sling (pouch/ring/wrap/abc) for any babywearing but for those only interested in more mainstream approaches this is a must-have.
