My boy weighs 27 pounds and he is only 19 months old.  I know there are many baby this age who are heavier.  But bare in mind, I am a very petite Mommy.  There is a Chinese saying that ‘carrying him is much heavier than a bag of rice (20 pounds)’ which is very true and it is hurting my back. 

Because of my backache, I’ve been seeing a back therapist lately for massage.  She told me I should use a baby carrier to carry him.  I told her I have 1 but my son is too big for it.  She told me there are many types of baby carriers, just need to find one that can fit him. 

I came home and looked for Baby Carrier Reviews.  Sure there are many kinds – hipster, pouch, sling, and more.  I probably will have to look for a sling or hipster to help to support his weigh over my shoulder instead.
