Does anyone wear their baby in the supermarket/Target etc.?

I want to get a baby carrier so that I can wear LO while shopping with a cart along with other times I may need/want it. Do any of you do this? Is it comfortable? I'm also thinking of the Beco Gemini so if anyone has that particular carrier feel free to comment that would be great! TIA!

  • I have a mei tai style carrier that I wear Jessica in at the grocery store.  She gets heavy after a while, but if I know I'm gonna be buying a lot of groceries I prefer to carry her than to put the carseat inside the cart.  It works really well for us.

  • Yep, I use the Pikkolo carrier by Catbird Baby in Target all the time. I love it!

  •  I used a moby style wrap that I put on before I leave the house, and then when I get to the store I just transfer her to it. DD is only 9 and a half pounds at almsot 10 weeks though. She's still realtively easy to cart around.

  • I use a wrap all the time! I wear her in the grocery store, Target, Kohl's...you name it. It makes my life so much easier and keeps her happier longer.

  • Anywhere we go I have her in the carrier. She falls right to sleep next to my chest and I can easily spend a few hours running errands.

  • I haven't tried the carrier yet but was just thinking the other day that when it warms up again I need to.  The last few times I've gone to Target DD has needed to be taken out of her carseat and carried to get her calmed down so I could finish getting grocerie.

    THIS for sure! I have yet to use his stroller or carseat while running errands. We have the baby k'tan, it's just like the moby but you don't have to wrap and fold it to use it. Highly, highly recommend it! It is by far my fav baby related item
