We surveyed 87 Aussie pregnant women, 70% of them have been recommended the same product by their mates

Most first-time parents tend to glaze over just a little bit when mention of their baby shower gift registry pops up.
How on earth are you supposed to know which carrier is best? Which pram will grow with your family, and even which dummies to stock up on. It’s a bit like buying a house. You don’t know anything about laying carpet, or interior styling until you need to. And then it’s a whirlwind lesson like no other.
The same can be said for getting your head around the things you need for the impending birth of your baby, you can read all of the reviews and ‘10 of the best’ articles that you like to get a shortlist, but when it comes down to it, the people you really listen to are your friends who have been there before you.
So, when we conducted a focus group recently with 87 pregnant Aussie women, we just had to ask… ‘what are the products your friends and family have told you to buy?’
Product most recommended to our focus group by their friends, at a whopping 70 per cent is:
Ergobaby Carrier

We have an inkling why: years ago the ergobaby omni 360 carrier was a firm favourite for new mums and dads, as it meant baby was happy snuggled close to your chest, and you had your arms free to eat lunch, go to the bathroom - all of the things!
How do I know? Because I too had an ergobaby omni 360 carrier, based on recommendations from friends around me. The best bit is, ergobaby have brought out a new and improved version for today’s mums and dads!
The new ergobaby OMNI BREEZE Baby Carrier brings breathability to the next level. Designed with Lightweight SoftFlex™ Mesh to create maximum airflow, it keeps you and your baby cool and dry all day.
