Yes, we couldn't just stop ourselves---we've made BABY BARGAINS better!

It's revised! Updated! And EXPANDED!

The 7th edition of BABY BARGAINS features all that you loved about our book, plus MORE! We've expanded the book with new sections, including booster car seats, kitchen boosters and more!

Here's an overview of what's new:    
    
We’ve crowned a new winner in the carrier section (sorry, Bjorn) . . .  plus we have the low-down on new hip carriers, Asian-inspired wraps and more. For the kitchen, we have added reviews of booster seats and hook-on chairs. And cloth diaper fans will note an expanded and updated section with the latest brands and picks.

The Baby Bjorn was our top carrier pick in the last several editions of our book, but we have crowned a new winner this time out: The ERGO baby carrier.

Made by a small Hawaii company, the ERGO ($92; www.ergobaby.com;
888-416-4888) has won kudos on our boards for its ease of use (you can wear it in front or back) and less strain on the back.  While most front carriers put the strain on your shoulders and back, the ERGO comes with a padded hip belt that takes the strain off your upper back.  Best of all, you can use it from birth (with a newborn insert, $25) up to an amazing 40 pounds (toddlers); most front carriers can only be used for a short time (the Bjorn limit is 22 pounds)

Given the reader raves on the ERGO, we will give it our top recommendation.
