When my son was born, he hated being in the carrier and in turn, I hated wearing it. Grant it we had a cheap knock off from a bargain brand store, so that probably had something to do with it.
This time around, I am determined to have my infant enjoy and stay in a baby carrier. I’ve done a lot of research and my heart now belongs to Beco. I mean, just look at these – they are totally stylish, but are built for comfort. I’m talking real comfort for both parent and baby. The key is even weight distribution, so you never feel overloaded. And the carriers grow with your baby.
There are two versions of the Beco baby carrier – the Soleil and the Gemini – both of which offer a complete array of features to fit your needs.
The Gemini is a no nonsense carrier that grows with your baby and has front-facing in, front-facing out, in-hip carry or back- carry configurations. Yes, that’s a 4-1 carrier. Since it fits babies up to 35 pounds, there’s no need to get a new carrier as you transition from infant to toddler.
The Soleil takes it one step further with all the form and function of the Gemini with some added bells and whistles. It’s perfect for those moms who are looking to use their baby carriers every single day, not just on outings or walks. The roomy pocket on the waist belt and the added key and toy ring, rounds out the features. It is adaptable with a variety of add-ons with their accessory pack, which includes an infant insert, a large sleep hood and organic drooling pads.
All of them come in a variety of stylish colors and designs that are bright, cheerful and totally modern. It makes choosing a seemingly ordinary piece of baby equipment fun. Plus all fabrics are 100 percent organic cotton, and washable.
I can totally see my hubby using this carrier as well. He never felt quite comfortable using a sling or our old carrier with our first son. He felt the need to hold on to him, which totally defeated the purpose of being “hands free.” I can already tell that the added padding, and secure harness straps will add a whole other layer of security to the mix. He’s going to feel right at ease.
