I broke down and bought a Beco....

and we're loving it! And by we, I mean me because I can do stuff with both hands again and J because he's fast asleep in it right now. He's been having some trouble with daytime naps lately so this helps both of us tremendously.

The pattern I wanted was sold out on the Beco site and we couldn't find too much selection locally so I ended up buying it online from a site I came across while looking on Amazon. I ordered it on Friday night at around 2 a.m. (while up for a feeding), got an email on Saturday morning saying that it had been shipped out, and got it in the mail this morning. And the shipping was free! Even to Hawaii!!

This is the one we got:

Hey Lisa! Can I ask how much you got it for? Free shipping to Hawaii is always sweet!

Did you go to the baby wearing demo at the Baby Expo? I'm thinking of going to the class at Baby Awearness.

ooh, even though it wasn't your first choice of pattern, i like the pattern!

Oops, maybe my wording was confusing? Sandra, this one was actually my first choice but I couldn't find it locally and the Beco site is pretty much all out of everything. I love the print because those are my favorite colors, would work for a boy or girl baby, and isn't so girly that John would feel weird wearing it too. I love love love it!

Nicole, it was $139, which is how much both Baby Awearness and Baby Emporium are charging. It's $140 on the Beco site. Hooray for no tax and free shipping!!

Love it! Can I ask why you chose this carrier? I'm currently wanting to buy a couple but there are so many to choose from!

I wanted something with buckles and thought we'd get the Ergo until I saw how bulky the Ergo's newborn insert was. It gets pretty hot here and I felt like it wouldn't be comfortable for J in that bulky cocoon PLUS my body heat. I heard great things about the Beco and loved the fact that it came in different prints. =P
