I had Corey in a framed back carrier in Blackpool - it was a cheap Mothercare one from a carboot sale.

He absolutely loved it!

But i want a nice comfy one, with a raincover now we are at the end of summer. Weve been to an outdoor centre today, and ive tried him in a Vaude and a Macpac - really liked the Vaude - got a few on watch on Ebay now Wink

Just wondering if anyone had any experience with any back carriers?

I've just had one!! Got a beco butterfly. You can use mei tai's too. The advantage to the beco is it has like a little pouch for baby to sit in, and even if the waist buckle comes undone, baby is still secure in their pouch:

Haven't got a pic of Dais in her beco doing back carry yet.

Ps, only trouble with back carry using a mei tai is it can make your boobs look huuuuuuge depending where straps are!
