I got my new Mei Tai (pronounced "may-tie") to carry Belle and later the new baby around in.I love it! (Even though, by the expression on my face, you wouldn't think so.) It is so nice to be able to have her up and I can't wait to use it at the next festival or whatever that we go to where we have to walk around a lot and need her not to wander off. I also need to start walking so that I don't gain 50+ pounds with this pregnancy like I have with the others. It is really easy to use and fun for her, too.
When we were at my in-law's for Father's Day, yesterday, Belle was really grumpy. I asked her if she wanted to go in it and she said yes. I put her in the mei tai and she calmed right down and ate some of her dinner. It was amazing! I can't wait to use it when I have three kids and need my hands.
If you are interested, I got mine from here! Right now, they are starting to only sell organic products and so they are discontinuing the non-organic stuff. The prices start at $19.99, rather than their normal price of $63 (other places have them for $98!!) So, if you are in the market for one, now is the time to buy! The one I got is called stars and stripes. It is really sturdy and well-made. They also have instructions for how to wear it. Here are some more great instructions and pictures for wearing a mei tai!!
If you are interested in babywearing or in just using a carrier that is more comfortable, (I fit into the later category.) go read this post I wrote about it with links to lots of information.
Update: They have added new patterns and upped the price a bit, but they are still cheaper than anywhere else I've seen.
