I have an active bjorn but I think it is too heavy n hot for the summer.

Anyone have or can suggest a nice soft breathable carrier I can use in the hot summer months?????

    While I love the moby (like loveduds), I find it VERY hot.  It is like wearing a sweatshirt and the baby :(

    I think the Ergo or beco butterfly are probably the coolest, but $$$  I got a mei tai baby, which is along the same lines, but I haven't used it much yet.

    I loved my Moby, but ditto pp it was too hot last summer. I heard gauze wraps are much cooler, so I went to the fabric store and bought 5 or so yards of gauze. Then my mom sewed up the side and I used the rubber band trick for the ends. Take each end one at a time and fan fold it back and forth. Then wrap a rubber band around each end and then turn the ends inward to make a little ball/knot out of them. There used to be instructions online with picture, but it looks like the web site is gone now. :(  You can also just sew across each end as well. It was definitely much cooler, but it is not as comfy as the jersey. I have heard that the more washing you do with gauze, the softer it gets.
