Ever since finding out I was pregnant with my second child I spent a lot of time wondering how I am going to do everyday things like walk the dog, go to the store, etc. with a new baby and a toddler. I have decided that the answer is that this kid is going to be strapped to me most of my waking hours. And the Beco Baby Carrier is how I’ll make that happen.
I had in my mind the type of carrier I wanted, but didn’t know where to find one. So I started my research the old fashioned way – stopping people on the street who were wearing their babies the way I wanted to! Everyone I talked to loved using the Beco. Not only do they come in many stylish patterns, but they also offer carriers made with organic fabrics.
I haven’t had the chance to use mine but Emily was recently given one and I asked her to share her opinion. She says:
I really love my Beco – Little Miss is growing VERY fast so although she was outgrowing our beloved sling she wasn’t developed enough to move onto the next carrying positions as we were kind of stalled until I was given the Beco. Little Miss is more upright than in her sling but she’s so close and snuggled into me that sleep is almost inevitable. The only thing I will say is you definitely need to watch the DVD that comes with it because its relatively complicated to use properly and I found the two-handed clips at the shoulders a nightmare to do up (or undo) if I was on my own so I’ve started leaving one done up and sliding her in around it which works great. Best of all it is so compact it rolls up and fits in my diaper bag without any problem so I always have it with me!
The carriers retail for about $140 US and can be purchased on the Beco site or in a variety of baby boutiques orrrrrrrrrrrr YOU CAN WIN ONE FROM US!!! That’s right – one lucky reader will win their very own Beco Baby Carrier!
