When my baby was just born I tried to use a stretchy wrap, but he did not like it very much. Plus it was difficult for me to nurse with the wrap, not very discreet. Then I found out about mei tais and I highly recommend this style of baby carrier as the most versatile and practical. .-= Mei Tai ´s last blog ..BABYWEARING AVOIDS POSTPARTUM DEPRESSION =-.

I have many baby carriers but have three favorites depending on the errand / age, etc.
1) Hotsling makes an SPF sling (Solarveil). I used that for the newborn when I was in the pool and carrying him around otherwise. Scratchy material (relatively speaking) but meant to get wet and quick drying.
2) Ergo. LOVE the thing. Works for all ages and used when we were hiking (with infant insert) and use now for kids up to about age 3. That’s when my son decided it wasn’t as interesting / fun. I loved the front, side, and back carry. Generally my favorite.
3) Framed backpack carrier from LL Bean (who no longer makes it). This holds the child up high so they can see. My 7 mo old LOVES this. The downside… and it is a downside. He pulls my hair ALOT lately when he is in it. Nothing like trying to shop when your kid has two handfuls of your hair and is yanking with wild abandon.
