Baby wearing

Did you ever wear your baby? What did you use? I have a Maya sling somewhere, just not sure where it is. I used it a bit 2 years ago but it wasn't as comfy as I'd hoped. I don't care for the wraps that you have to wrap this way and that way around your body and need a college degree to use either. I really like the BabyHawk Mei Tais and I've heard great things about them. They look like they'd be great for the baby with head control. I need something good for nursing too. So we're back to slings. Some girls rave about the Posh Papoose. Aren't they purty? There are just SOOO many different kinds of slings, wraps, carriers and pouches now so it makes it all the worse when you are a very indecisive person. Oh and don't get me started on all the different fabrics to choose from: silks, cottons, gauze, Solarveil/Solarweave....

I have a feeling I'll be buying a prettier ring sling once I figure out a brand and a BHMT later on. Any suggestions?

I have three kinds. I have the ring sling, the wrap that takes a college degree to do and a mei tie...I got my mei tie from beanslingsandseats.com (a friend's website...she makes them and she lives in Riverview). She makes more than just mei ties...check her out. Tell her I sent you.

Love the mei tai. If I were to get something again, it would be that.

Those BabyHawk Mei Tais are really cool - they look great and look like they'd be easy to use AND comfy for baby. I have a regular old Baby Bjorn that we got when Hayden was born and an Ultimate Baby Wrap. The Baby Bjorn hurts my back and the other one takes a lot of practice to get it just right - not too tight and not too loose.
