Babywearing in a Mei Tai

NOTE: This post is a bit long and includes two videos. Proceed with caution. 😉

The first carrier I’m going to focus on in this babywearing series is the Mei Tai…not to be confused with the alcoholic drink. Please do not drink and babywear. HAHAHAHAHA! The way I talk about drinking all the time, you’d think I was a big alchy. But anyway, I digress. Editor’s note: Stacy is not an alcoholic.

A Mei Tai is an Asian-inspired baby carrier. It has a tie around the waist and two straps that you put over your shoulders and cross in the back. You tie around the baby or around yourself to strap the baby in. You can front carry or back carry in this type of carrier. One will generally cost between $50-100.

Mei Tai Babywearing

My carrier from Gracie and Sam has a clip belt, but most Mei Tais come with a tie strap. I’ve used both and they are both easy to use. You simply tie it on, put baby in it, then tie it around yourself….see below for front and back carry videos.

So, you’re likely going to hear me say this in each post –buy a GOOD baby carrier. Just like you spend good money on a car seat and you research what is the best, do the same for your baby carrier. You’re going to wear it for a while, so YOU need to be comfortable and you need your BABY to be comfortable. Don’t pinch pennies too bad when it comes to a carrier – they are worth the money…and this is coming from Cheapo Stacy Who Picks Up Pennies in the Parking Lot.

You can spend between $50-200 for a good carrier. You can spend less and you can spend more. You can buy brand new or you can buy used. Either way – buy a good one…a good quality one that meets CPSIA requirements. (Note: Gracie and Sam (LLC) Mei Tais are compliant with Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) requirements.)

Good baby-carriers are worth EVERY SINGLE PENNY.

Mei Tai Babywearing

Why would you want a Mei Tai? If you want a carrier that’s easy to master and doesn’t require much tying, then you would enjoy this carrier. It distributes weight evenly so you don’t get tired very quickly. I’m able to strap it on quickly when I’m out and about. It works great in the grocery store and great in the park. It ranks in my top three: Moby, Mei Tai and Ergo/Boba.

Why would you NOT want a Mei Tai? If you struggle with tying knots, this is not the carrier for you. 😉 It’s not one of the cheapest options, but in my opinion it’s one of the best options out there for baby-wearing. If you have no plans to front carry, you might not want a Mei Tai – I love front carry, so that’s why I enjoy this carrier. I don’t use it once I move to back carry – although Brandy will show you how you can also use it for back carry if you desire. It’s not a good carrier to breastfeed in – or at least I haven’t mastered that. 🙂

This carrier is easy to put on and it’s easy to take off. It’s not too hot in the summer so that you sweat like a pig when wearing it. I know I’m going to be using this Gracie and Sam carrier a LOT this upcoming summer…especially at the grocery store.

Mei Tai Babywearing

My review: After using her Mei Tai for several weeks, I can tell you one thing: it’s top notch. It’s one of the best baby carriers I’ve ever worn. I love the colors and I love the fit. The padded shoulder straps are very comfy on my bony shoulders and it’s easy to get a tight fit. It’s very comfortable to wear for long periods of time and Andy enjoys it – he falls asleep in it very easily.

I love the custom made reversible pattern. It means I have ONE carrier that I can use for a girl or boy. I also love how fast it is to put on – I can easily strap it on in a store parking lot and be ready to go. The package arrived nicely put together and came with instructions and a thank-you note.

Mei Tai Babywearing

Brandy’s review of the Gracie and Sam Mei Tai:

I’ve made over two dozen mei tais in my babywearing years, so I feel I’ve had a lot of experience using them.  I’m probably the more critical reviewer.  The Sam and Gracie mei tai was surprisingly light, but very well made.  I carried an almost two year old in it using back carry.  I am accustomed to ones that are a bit heavier, but this one seemed as though it would work nicely in hot weather.    The fabric seemed as though it would not develop much of a memory with prolonged use, which is desirable.  By memory, I mean holding wrinkles that fade over time and may compromise the integrity of the fabric.  Ironing can help avoid this, but who wants to iron their carrier every week or so?

The sewing on the mei tai was very neat.  Everything seemed to be very well attached.  The straps were padded, which is not my personal preference, but the padding was comfortable.  I prefer unpadded straps because I feel they conform to my shoulders better.  Padded straps tend to feel like they’re sliding off my shoulders, even if they’re not.  The lighter straps were easy to tie and gripped nicely.    The shoulder and waist straps were a generous length, which I find helpful as an expectant mother. I liked that the carrier was easily reversible, but I do wish the waist strap was a bit heftier.  It did grip well and stay in place once adjusted.

Mei Tai Babywearing

NOTE from Valerie of Gracie and Sam:

  1. I tear rather than cut my straps. This allows the straps to be along the warp of the fabric exactly, making them a bit stronger and removing any chance of stretch. I’d rather adjust my straps intentionally than have the droop during the day because of any unintended bias-based cutting giving them stretch.
  2. When I put all the pieces together and do my first sewing around, straps (shoulders and waist) get backstitched at their points of insertion as well as in the center of the straps. So all seams that are stressed are already reinforced from the get-go.
  3. The carrier is turned right side out and top-stitched, adding another set of stitching to everything attached. The straps are box stitched.

**I was sent a Gracie and Sam Mei Tai to review. All opinions are mine and I really, REALLY love this carrier. Amen and amen.**

    Would love one for my daughter-in-law in shades of brown on black.

    The poppies on grey looks nice.

    My two-week old loves to be carried and I would love to have my hands free!

    Went to Gracie and Sams and LOVE the Birds of a Feather on green….. Beautiful!!

    Just had my 4th baby and have never tried baby wearing but the cost of the carriers are expensive so this would be a great opportunity to become a baby wearing momma!!

  6. Nicole G says

    May 5, 2013 at 11:33 pm

    Went to Gracie and Sam— My favorite was the Jala Citroen on Grey Mei Tai! It is perfect for either mom or dad to carry, and works well for a baby boy or girl!

  7. Nicole G says

    Baby #2 due in January!! Can’t wait to baby wear!

  8. Rachel says

    May 5, 2013 at 11:19 pm

    I would love a Mai tai because it would be my first ever baby carrier and I could finally have a carrier to carry my 11 week old in and keep him close while I go to the store, swapmeet, etc. I have always wanted one and couldn’t afford one so I just carry him on my arms or lug out the big stroller to out him in.

    May 5, 2013 at 11:09 pm

    I went over and looked – the Shades of Brown on Black is really classy. I think I could get my husband to wear LO in such a neutral color too. 🙂

    I would love the JAla Citroen on grey!

  11. Cami says

    May 5, 2013 at 11:06 pm

    I love to baby wear and have always wanted a Mei Tai. I would like something easier to put on than my moby when we are out and about.

  12. Erin foreman says

    May 5, 2013 at 11:04 pm

    My little one has grown out of the k’tan we thought would last til walking and I would love a mei tai (I’ve tried one) for the traveling we are doing this summer.

  13. joyce says

    May 5, 2013 at 10:28 pm

    I went over to Gracie and Sam …. the colors are so cute I would have a hard time choosing…but the Jala Citroen on Grey would be great color.

  14. joyce says

    May 5, 2013 at 10:26 pm

    I would love to have one of these.

  15. Kelly says

    I love the blue and pink reversible!

  16. Kelly says

    May 5, 2013 at 10:15 pm

    I think it would be a good alternate to my lots of buckles baby carrier, when you have 3 kiddos you don’t have a free hand!

    May 5, 2013 at 10:14 pm

    I really like the Paisley on black pattern

  18. Jeniver says

    May 5, 2013 at 10:11 pm

    Would love to have this to carry my youngest. He is clingy sometimes and I need my hands free. It would help with this. Thanks!

    I love the shades of brown and the jala Citroen prints!!

  20. Sarah says

    May 5, 2013 at 10:04 pm

    Using this Mei tei would help me be a better mom and wife. My 15 month old is so very high maintenance (always has been) and would allow him to be close to me but still be able to get things done. As a second thing– we are hoping to have lots more kids, so it’ll get used lots!!

    May 5, 2013 at 10:00 pm

    Having my 4th at the end of july and would like to babywear more this time especially with a high energy 2.5 year old to keep up with.

  22. Kelli says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:46 pm

    I’d love the Peacock, but the Sorbet Flowers would be fun too since so many of my carriers were purchased when my son was born and I now have a daughter too!

  23. Kelli says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:43 pm

    I’d love a Mei Tai because I loaned one out and it hasn’t been returned…and I’d love to wear my new baby in one!

  24. Suzanne Wallace says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:38 pm

    I really like the shades of brown on black.

  25. Suzanne Wallace says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:35 pm

    I would like a Mei Tai because I am pregnant with my 4th child and I think it may make my life a little easier :). I will have 4 kids under 5 yrs. old… Life is good!

  26. Becky says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:32 pm

    Absolutely LOVE the Sorbet Flower pattern. Keeping my fingers crossed!!!

  27. Alissa G says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:31 pm

    I am expecting my third baby and would love to give baby wearing a better go this time around, especially since my one and three year olds are still riding in the double stroller. Looks like this carrier would be great.

  28. Becky says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:29 pm

    I would LOVE a Mei Tai because I am due with a baby girl in July , and am anxious about chasing around our toddler at the same time. I love the appeal of the ease of the Mei Tai, as well as the comfort. Thank you for the opportunity to win!

  29. Becky B. says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:29 pm

    I have tried a mei tai out and it is by far my favorite baby carrier! I especially want it for back carries with my 10 month old 🙂 I can’t afford one right now, so this would be awesome!

  30. Tonja says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:19 pm

    We are expecting our 5th child in December. This carrier would be lovely.

  31. Ashley says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:19 pm

    I love the Poppies on Gray pattern.

  32. Megan says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:17 pm

    I would love to have a mei tai because we will soon be opening our home to foster parent a baby born with drug dependacy. It is important to baby wear with them because of the withdrawals and tremors they go through. The closer you are able to hold them or swaddle them, the better.

  33. Ashley says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:17 pm

    I have a BabyHawk mei tai carrier and I already really like it. Would love to try out a different kind!

  34. Heather says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:15 pm

    My favorite is the sorbet flowers on natural but they are all beautiful!

  35. Erin Odom says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:15 pm

    I loved the Birds of a Feather because green is my favorite color.

  36. Heather says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:13 pm

    I have always wanted a Mei Tai! I use a pouch while my babies are small and an Ergo when they are bigger. We are expecting baby #6 this fall 🙂

  37. Sydney Leavitt says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:12 pm

    I love the birds of a feather and the paisley prints. They are so cute and my little dark haired cutie would really be styling in either one.

  38. Erin Odom says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:12 pm

    I love baby carriers and am always looking for a new or different one that fit the needs of my child and me.

  39. Ashley says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:11 pm

    Birds of a Feather on Green Mei tai would be my choice if I win. It is beautiful!!!

  40. Sydney Leavitt says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:10 pm

    I would love a meitei wrap. My husband and I are basically starting our life over. We went back to school, graduated, moved cross country, and just had our first baby in January. We have been struggling trying to get on our feet. Finding jobs has been really tough and we have had to rely on family and friends for everything for our baby, as my part-time job barely covers the cost of our rent and food. My husband opened his own business, but the business is only able to cover it’s own costs. Fortunately, I am able to take our daughter to work with me. I would love to baby wear, but we haven’t been able to afford a carrier. Work would be so much easier if I could wear my little girl around the office. It breaks my heart that I can’t hold her and snuggle her as much as I think she needs. Also, we would love to be able to take her hiking. We moved cross country to live in a mountainous state and haven’t really been able to enjoy it as much as we could if we were able to take our little girl with us in the mountains. Thank you for your consideration.

  41. Ashley says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:08 pm

    Loved my Moby but need a Mei Tai and would love to win one 🙂

  42. Courtney Bohannon says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:08 pm

    I like the Paisley on red pattern!

  43. Rebecca says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:08 pm

    I like the paisley pattern.

  44. Faith Storms says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:07 pm

    I would love a mei tai because I am a baby wearing addict! Another cute and functional carrier to add to my stash 🙂

  45. Faith Storms says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:07 pm

    I LOVE the sorbet flowers pattern!

  46. Rebecca says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:06 pm

    I’d love a carrier. I have triplets, and don’t own a triple stroller – just a double. It’d be helpful to have one on my back while I push the others.

  47. Ayla Stair says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:06 pm

    I love the birds of a feather!

  48. Amy Messick says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:05 pm

    I used to have a mei tai, but, the one that I had was only sturdy enough for a baby. I think that I could use this with my toddler!

  49. Courtney Bohannon says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:05 pm

    I would love a new carrier, and love the Mei tai style! Having a boy this time around and my only carrier this style is pretty evidently girlie.

  50. Rebecca says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:05 pm

    I’d love a carrier. I have triplets, and only own a double stroller, not a triple. So, I’d like to have one on my back and push the other two.

  51. Ayla Stair says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:04 pm

    Would love to wear my son, I love the idea!

  52. Katie Powell says

    I LOVE the Citroen on Grey!

  53. Katie Powell says

    May 5, 2013 at 7:29 pm

    I would LOVE one of her carriers! I”ve been in search of a good one in preparation for our upcoming vacation where we will be walking a lot and baby will need to nap on the go!

  54. Melanie Barber says

    May 5, 2013 at 3:21 pm

    Checked out the website and really liked the patterns they have to choose from. I liked the birds of a feather and Sorbet Flowers the best. However, they are all really nice and I would gladly accept any of them! Thankfully my older children weren’t in on this because they would all vote for the Marvel Comics(cute but not my top pick)!

  55. Melanie Barber says

    May 5, 2013 at 3:10 pm

    Hey Stacey,
    I am a happy momma of 8 beautiful children. I would LOVE to have this carrier. I have tried a few carrierers/wraps and they always end up killing my back. It would be nice to have one that was comfortable.I really enjoyed the videos you posted. They were very helpful:)

  56. Jamie Knupp says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:01 am

    The Birds of a Feather on Green Mei tai is absolutely gorgeous, as is the Jala Citroen on Grey Mei tai. I would have a hard time choosing!

  57. Jamie Knupp says

    May 5, 2013 at 8:59 am

    I had a baby girl April 14th and she was born premature – she is only 5 pounds and three weeks old today. I would love to be able to carry her all the time, but with a two year old as well, its hard to manage without my hands free. A Mei Tai carrier would be the perfect way to start babywearing!

  58. Kristen says

    May 4, 2013 at 11:00 pm

    I’m currently pregnant with my first child and would love one of these. With this being my first child, I need all the help I can get with mastering how to get daily tasks done while carrying my baby and caring for her. This Mei Tai looks like the perfect solution!

  59. Leslie G says

    May 4, 2013 at 6:18 pm

    Love this idea! It would be very useful to help corral even larger babies!

  60. Nicole R. says

    May 4, 2013 at 12:54 pm

    I love the Everglades print…but I am totally interested in the solarweave custom she has up as well.

  61. Nicole R. says

    May 4, 2013 at 12:51 pm

    I love a Mei Tai because it is so versatile and easy to use.

  62. Kaleigh says

    May 3, 2013 at 8:24 pm

    …and the jala citroen is probably my favorite. My husband might even wear it. 🙂

  63. Kaleigh says

    May 3, 2013 at 8:21 pm

    We have a K’Tan, and I enjoy wearing my 8 month old (in various positions now that she is getting bigger!). Babywearing is addictive! So fascinated with the mei tai…I would love to try one!

  64. Katie Zeunges says

    May 3, 2013 at 5:10 pm

    I’d pick Sorbet Flowers on Natural.

    So many cute designs.

    God bless you,
    Katie

  65. Katie Zeunges says

    May 3, 2013 at 4:58 pm

    The Mei Tai looks wonderful.

    I have an ERGO and the way it hits my lower back causes my back to ache, hence, I don’t use it very much (especially not for long periods of time).

    I also use the Baby Bjorn but it only has the criss-cross on top and no lower back support.

    The Mei Tai seems to have the best of both worlds. It has the criss-cross in the back like the Baby Bjorn plus the lower back strap like the ERGO.

    I’d love to try it out.

    God bless you,
    Katie

  66. Leigh Ann @ Intentional By Grace says

    May 3, 2013 at 2:46 pm

    I would get the grey mei tai!

  67. Leigh Ann @ Intentional By Grace says

    May 3, 2013 at 2:44 pm

    So I’m taking a break from packing and wanted to check out your baby carrier series. I have never heard of a Mei Tai or seen one used. But this is right up my alley! I use and love my Sleepy Wrap (much like a Moby), but it’s a pain for the grocery store. I’m also wondering how in the world I’m going to manage my sleepy wrap in the dead of winter (which you know lasts 2/3 of the year here). So anyway, this is totally something I’m going to look into. I love the buckle! And you kid is adorable – but I tell you that all the time. 🙂

  68. Melanie says

    May 3, 2013 at 9:57 am

    I love the MTO Paisley on black. It would go well with all the black an white baby gear I already have!

  69. Melanie says

    May 3, 2013 at 9:53 am

    Oh! I would LOVE a Gracie and Sam Mei Tai carrier! I’ve used a Maya wrap for my first three. It was easy to nurse in and be discreet. But if it shifts much at all, my shoulder starts cramping and it doesn’t work well once they’re bigger. Number four is on the way, and it would be fantastic to have a more comfortable baby carrier this time around!

  70. Katie says

    May 3, 2013 at 9:47 am

    I would like the pink and blue one or the one Stacy is wearing. Couldn’t find it though. I have a 2 month old girl but will try again for a boy with #5 so a gender neutral would be great 🙂

  71. Charity Reynard says

    May 3, 2013 at 9:27 am

    I would love to win this carrier for my 3 month old baby girl. She has had many health problems since birth and I would love to be able to hold her more because of the many benefits of babywearing. I have a very active 2 year old who also takes up a great deal of my energy and time that I cannot spend holding her, due to financial difficulties since only having my partner’s wage as I had to quit my job to stay home and care for her.

  72. Katie says

    May 3, 2013 at 9:24 am

    I would love to try out the mei-tai carrier. My 2 month old loves to be worn and its the only way I can get things done!

  73. Sara says

    May 3, 2013 at 8:44 am

    They’re all darling fabrics, but I really love Eric Carle Brown Bear; maybe you have to when you’re a librarian.

  74. Sara says

    May 3, 2013 at 8:38 am

    Expecting our first baby late fall – looking forward to babywearing, and the Mei Tai looks like a carrier I’d love using!

  75. Dirk Esterline says

    May 3, 2013 at 6:53 am

    The pink side blue side would be great in case we try for a girl.

  76. Dirk Esterline says

    May 3, 2013 at 6:49 am

    Not just for moms. Baby wearing is a great way for dads to have the closeness that mothers get wtih their babies.

  77. Sara M says

    May 2, 2013 at 9:26 pm

    I would choose the Peacock pattern.

  78. Sara M says

    May 2, 2013 at 9:24 pm

    I would like to win because I think this would be cool to use with the new baby.

  79. Catherine says

    May 2, 2013 at 8:43 pm

    I like the Sorbet Flowers on Natural and Jala Citroen on Grey!

  80. Catherine says

    May 2, 2013 at 8:41 pm

    I’m expecting my first child late this fall, so I think a Mei Tai will be very helpful in the near future!

  81. Heidi K says

    May 2, 2013 at 6:24 pm

    I would pick sorbet flowers on natural.

  82. Heidi K says

    May 2, 2013 at 6:19 pm

    I would love the mei tai to carry my little girl in at the grocery store.

  83. Lori says

    May 2, 2013 at 4:56 pm

    I love the Jala Citroen on Grey…might even be able to convince the Hubs to use it!

  84. Lori says

    May 2, 2013 at 4:52 pm

    I’m expecting my first in October and can’t wait to babywear! I’ve been reading and researching and like everything about the Mei Tai!

  85. Heather Birdwell says

    May 2, 2013 at 4:07 pm

    If I were to win, I would love the Birds of a Feather =)

  86. Heather Birdwell says

    May 2, 2013 at 4:07 pm

    I would absolutely love a baby carrier. I have an Ergo but really want a Mei Tai! I have heard nothing but excellent reviews about them!

  87. Nicole says

    May 2, 2013 at 4:06 pm

    I have always wanted a mei tai! Glad you’ve had such a pleasant experience with yours.

  88. Rebekah says

    May 2, 2013 at 2:48 pm

    I would get the Jala Citroen on Grey.

  89. Rebekah says

    May 2, 2013 at 2:48 pm

    I would love to win the Mei Tai for my sister-in-law!

  90. Trisha Hodge says

    May 2, 2013 at 1:57 pm

    i would enjoy the Birds of a Feather on Green print, as it is gender neutral and i could reuse it with future babies 🙂

  91. Trisha Hodge says

    May 2, 2013 at 1:55 pm

    i would love to try and use this carrier. i have a three year old, 21 month old and a 6th month old. i rarely go out of the house by myself because i have trouble containing them all at the store or newhere else we mite go. i really would love to get into baby wearing my youngest, just havent been able to. i feel like this would really help me.!!

  92. theresa gianna says

    May 2, 2013 at 1:42 pm

    and if i were to win (and probably even if i don’t), i’d get the “poppies on grey” carrier.

  93. theresa gianna says

    May 2, 2013 at 1:41 pm

    i would love a mei tai (baby carrier)! i have a bjorn, but i hate how my little lady’s legs hang down and i’ve now read that they’re bad for babies’ postures…sad day. also, i REALLY want a carrier with which i can do a back-carry. plus these just look awesome. all right, i’m done. 🙂

  94. Stephanie says

    May 2, 2013 at 1:22 pm

    I am due with baby number 4 in June. I love to wear my babies. My last baby carrier gave me a bit of a backache and I am looking for a new carrier that will be easier on the back. I am also looking for a carrier that will be cooler in the summer months. Since this is baby #4, I expect to wear the baby most of the day!!

  95. Jordan says

    May 2, 2013 at 10:58 am

    I would like the pink side, blue side Mei Tai, then I could use it with either a boy or a girl.

  96. Jordan says

    May 2, 2013 at 10:52 am

    I would love a Mei Tai because I have a very active daughter who just turned 2 and a 4 month old son. With the summer months coming up it would be very helpful when we are playing in the yard or going on trips and sightseeing.

  97. Sarah says

    May 2, 2013 at 9:45 am

    We have a new baby coming in a few months and I’m really excited to try baby wearing. I would love to try this style!

  98. Linda says

    May 2, 2013 at 9:26 am

    My favorite pattern is the one that you are wearing Stacy but I couldn’t find it on the site. This would be so awesome to win!

  99. Kelsey says

    May 2, 2013 at 9:07 am

    Hi Stacy! I’d like a Mei Tai carrier because I’ll be a first time mom in a few months and think babywearing is a great way to be close to baby/get things done! I specifically would like to try this brand due to your review…thanks for this post, it was very helpful!

  100. Julie says

    May 2, 2013 at 8:29 am

    I like the Jala Citroen on grey. It’s light and pretty.

  101. Julie says

    May 2, 2013 at 8:27 am

    I would like a Mei Tai because I have not been able to find a comfortable baby wrap yet and this looks easy to use and comfortable.

  102. Lydia says

    May 2, 2013 at 6:35 am

    I love the Pink Side/Blue Side pattern! You can use it whether you have a boy or girl.

  103. Lydia says

    May 2, 2013 at 6:31 am

    My sister is expecting her first baby in a few months, and I would love to be able to give her a Mei Tai. I know she wants to wear her baby.

  104. Melanie says

    May 2, 2013 at 6:30 am

    I’d love to get a mei tai, they look so easy and simple to put on, especially the back carry. Can’t wait to try it out when baby gets her end of october and he gets strong enough for back carring.
    I can already imagine myself going shopping with him really close to me, and not having to worry about screaming toddlers, running around, touching things they shouldn’t and throwing themselves on the floor.
    Just gotta carry them 🙂

  105. Erinn Linkous says

    May 2, 2013 at 2:29 am

    If I won (fingers crossed!) I would either pick the Birds of a Feather pattern (the one you’re wearing) or the Sorbet Flowers. Love them both!

  106. Erinn Linkous says

    May 2, 2013 at 2:28 am

    I would LOVE a Mei Tai because #1- we baby wear and #2- we plan on having more kiddos. It’s a win-win! Please pick me! 🙂

  107. Anna says

    May 2, 2013 at 1:17 am

    I think I would choose the paisley on red pattern. Girly enough for my tastes but neutral enough for any baby 🙂

  108. Anna says

    May 2, 2013 at 1:14 am

    I would love to win a mei-tai! I’m a foster mom for babies, so being able to wear them gives them the love and comfort they need, and lets me get chores done at the same time! Thanks!

  109. Christine says

    May 2, 2013 at 12:35 am

    I visited the Etsy shop and love the MTO Birds of a Feather on Natural. She does beautiful work!

  110. Christine says

    May 2, 2013 at 12:29 am

    The review on this product was great! I grew up in West Africa where the women wear their babies all the time so it just makes sense to me. I love that you can put baby in the front or back and would love to try one of these!

  111. kathy says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:48 pm

    would love this for my daughter. i did this with my kids with a bulky awkward carrier that made it hard to do anything. this looks so cozy and comfy for baby and mom

  112. Kathryn says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:54 pm

    I love the Jala Citroen. Maybe with a neutral color I could get my husband to use it too.

  113. Kathryn says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:48 pm

    I would use this when I go out grocery shopping with my 4 month old and be able to chase down my runner 2 and 4 year old.

  114. Cassie says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:20 pm

    I love the Paisley on Black pattern!

  115. Cassie says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:19 pm

    I have a son on the way in a few months and already have my hands full with my toddler daughter, so I’m guessing I’m going to need a carrier.

  116. Laura G. says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:12 pm

    I’m due in June and would love to have a lightweight carrier for the summer.

  117. Michelle says

    May 1, 2013 at 7:15 pm

    I would love this carrier! im expecting in July and have three other kids to chase so having a safe snuggly place for baby would be wonderful! Ive never done much baby carrying because the carriers seemed intimidating but this one looks easy.

  118. Jennifer Davis says

    May 1, 2013 at 6:33 pm

    I would love to win this as it looks like a cross between a Moby Wrap and an Ergo. My two favorite carriers. Thanks!

  119. SueAnn says

    May 1, 2013 at 6:06 pm

    I would choose the Poppies on Grey if I won.

  120. SueAnn says

    May 1, 2013 at 6:04 pm

    I would love to win this carrier as a gift for my niece who had her 2nd baby yesterday. Unfortunately she was only 32 weeks along AND that means that her 2 babies are only 9 months apart! I imagine she is going to have to babywear her second once the baby gets out of the hospital if she wants to get anything done. Plus, it would be so nice for the preemie to be close to her mom whenever she can.

  121. Whitney R says

    May 1, 2013 at 5:40 pm

    I would get the sorbet flowers on natural 🙂 So cute!!

  122. Arielle says

    May 1, 2013 at 5:37 pm

    I would choose the Birds of a Feather pattern – looks like it would work for a boy or girl.

  123. Whitney R says

    May 1, 2013 at 5:36 pm

    I would like a Mei Tai because my current baby carrier go e me terrible back problems, and my newborn HATES to be put down… Like never wants to be put down.

  124. Arielle says

    May 1, 2013 at 5:36 pm

    I would love one of these for our new baby due in July!

  125. jodi says

    May 1, 2013 at 5:31 pm

    I’d love a mei tai to give to either of my baby-wearing daughters-in-law! If I were a mama still, I’d be baby wearing crazy!

  126. Tara H says

    May 1, 2013 at 5:13 pm

    I like the Birds of a Feather pattern, but I’d probably let my niece pick one if I won since it would be for her. 🙂

  127. Tara H says

    May 1, 2013 at 5:10 pm

    I would like one to give to my niece who is having her first baby in about 4 weeks!

  128. Shiree says

    May 1, 2013 at 4:58 pm

    I think I would like the sorbet flowers/natural mei tai the best.

  129. Shiree says

    May 1, 2013 at 4:54 pm

    I would love a mei tai because my baby carrier is nowhere near as cool as a mei tai is!

  130. Melody Carpenter says

    May 1, 2013 at 4:46 pm

    I would choose the Jala Citroen on grey.

  131. Melody Carpenter says

    May 1, 2013 at 4:42 pm

    I would love to win because we’re trying to get pregnant now and I would really love to use this.

  132. Cecilia says

    May 1, 2013 at 4:36 pm

    I would like to try something that didn’t cause me to get so hot. They are very pretty too!

  133. Heather says

    May 1, 2013 at 4:28 pm

    I would like the Eric Carle Brown Bear on Red.

  134. Nikki says

    May 1, 2013 at 4:25 pm

    I would love to try a Mei Tai! The only baby carrier I’ve tried is the Moby and I love it, but something quicker to put on would be wonderful.

  135. Heather says

    May 1, 2013 at 4:24 pm

    I would like a baby carrier because I recently had twins and I have a three year old. I don’t have enough hands right now!

  136. Wendy W. says

    May 1, 2013 at 4:02 pm

    I love the Pink side/Blue side!

  137. Erin says

    May 1, 2013 at 4:00 pm

    I love the Poppies on Grey carrier!

  138. Wendy W. says

    May 1, 2013 at 4:00 pm

    I carry babes in my ERGO and love it, but that one looks fun to try. I like that it doesn’t sound too hot…

  139. Erin says

    May 1, 2013 at 3:55 pm

    I’m a homeschooling mama of 3 little ones and the baby just wants to be held all.the.time. When we are out and about, she hates her infant seat and the stroller so I end up carrying her everywhere. It makes going places really interesting that’s for sure! I would love a carrier like this because I know she would love it and it would make both of us so much happier! I also love that it is lightweight and perfect for summer!!

  140. Kate Young says

    May 1, 2013 at 3:54 pm

    I love the Sorbet Flowers on Natural pattern! Beautiful!

  141. Kate Young says

    May 1, 2013 at 3:53 pm

    I have a mei tai which I adore because it’s the only way I can take 2 kids to the grocery store! If I won this, I would have a second, cuter one so that I could make sure I always have one in the house and one in the car.

  142. jen says

    May 1, 2013 at 3:43 pm

    I hope to win so I can babywear my baby due in August. At 42 and with a 12 year old with special needs, babywearing will really help me out is what my friends keeps telling me.

  143. Sarah says

    May 1, 2013 at 3:40 pm

    I would pick the pink/blue one. Cause all colors are cute for little babies!!

  144. Sarah says

    May 1, 2013 at 3:37 pm

    If I were to win this I would give it to my sister Becky. She has a little princess that would rather her momma snuggle with her than to let her do anything else. She lives in Atlanta and it gets really hot there so having something like this would be ideal for her to get outside more with her 5 year old too.

  145. Kate Schat says

    May 1, 2013 at 3:25 pm

    I’d love red on paisley if I won! I have two boys…but sometimes I need something a little feminine!!

  146. Kate Schat says

    May 1, 2013 at 3:25 pm

    It sounds and looks like such a comfy carrier!

  147. Kim says

    May 1, 2013 at 3:14 pm

    I LOVE the Paisley on Black pattern! It is beautiful! It would go with everything I wear!

    Thank you for offering this great giveaway!

  148. Kim says

    May 1, 2013 at 3:10 pm

    I would love to win this baby carrier!
    I just delivered my 9th baby last Friday and am presently without a baby carrier.
    Last summer, a young mother who I know, was having a hard time juggling 3 children 3 and under and
    I recommended her getting an Ergo. She said she’d love to and was praying that somehow God would
    provide one. At the same time, God was dealing with me to give her mine, and so I did.
    She was elated and I was, too! I knew that if God ever blessed me with another baby, He’d provide me with another
    great carrier. Since I just had my baby, I’m still waiting for His perfect timing for me to get a replacement. 🙂

  149. Amanda says

    May 1, 2013 at 2:43 pm

    I like the Sorbet Flowers on Natural carrier 🙂

  150. Amanda says

    May 1, 2013 at 2:40 pm

    I would like a baby carrier to us when our second baby come along. I have a very active toddler and a comfortable carrier would do me good when I have to the baby and chase him around

  151. Beth Magness says

    May 1, 2013 at 2:37 pm

    Jala Citroen on Grey – I think my husband would wear it, and the light color ought to help with heat.

  152. Beth Magness says

    May 1, 2013 at 2:35 pm

    We’ve moved to Oklahoma since I had my first, and need carriers that work in hot weather for my second! I love my wrap, but it’s too complicated for quick shopping trips or my husband; for that, I would rather use a Mei Tai.

  153. Katie Spurgers says

    May 1, 2013 at 2:31 pm

    I would love to get the poppies on grey to use with #3. I use a moby but would like something simpler for jumping out of the car and into a store with the kids.

  154. Laura says

    May 1, 2013 at 2:27 pm

    And I like the Sorbet Flowers on Natural pattern the best.

  155. Laura says

    May 1, 2013 at 2:25 pm

    I would love to win a Gracie and Sam carrier because it seems really user friendly. I don’t think it would take too much effort to strap a little one in 🙂

  156. Shawna Yeomans says

    May 1, 2013 at 2:07 pm

    We are a foster family that specialize in severe neglect and abuse in toddlers and drug babies. One of the things we do is to carry or hold the children as much as humanly possible the first several months (longer with infants) and we have had amazing results with this technique so I am always looking for great carriers that are easily adjusted for anyone in the family. This carrier looks amazing! I think it would be an amazing addition to our abilities to help these kids!

  157. Katie says

    May 1, 2013 at 2:01 pm

    I would LOVE Pink Side Blue Side.

  158. LauraD says

    May 1, 2013 at 1:49 pm

    i would pick sorbet flowers! how cute for a little girl!

  159. LauraD says

    May 1, 2013 at 1:49 pm

    i would like to win because my dear sister is pregnant with baby #1 due in july and it would make and awesome presetn!

  160. Ruth says

    May 1, 2013 at 1:40 pm

    I love the birds of a feather print!

  161. Ruth says

    May 1, 2013 at 1:39 pm

    I’d love to have one that fits and is comfortable for both mother and baby!

  162. Vanessa says

    May 1, 2013 at 1:28 pm

    I would LOVE a mei-tai. I borrowed one when my daughter was born and loved it. We are now doing foster care for medically fragile baby’s and having one of these would be so awesome in forming that bond and giving these babes what they’ve never had – closeness of a mama.

    • Vanessa says

      May 1, 2013 at 1:30 pm

      Forgot to add that I would choose the poppy on grey!

  163. Katie says

    May 1, 2013 at 1:16 pm

    The Mai Tai is so pretty! I would love to win one. I take my DD to work with me so wearing her is essential. Her name is Annie too:) It’s not always easy on me and I am always on the hunt for the best carrier. Maybe the Mai Tai is just the one I have been looking for?

  164. Julie says

    May 1, 2013 at 1:14 pm

    I would choose the jala Citroen on gray. Cute!

  165. Julie says

    May 1, 2013 at 1:13 pm

    I’m 10 weeks pregnant and think this would come in handy in a few months 🙂

  166. Charity says

    May 1, 2013 at 1:13 pm

    I would definitely chose sorbet flowers! (Also I just noticed my email address was wrong on my last post!)

  167. Charity says

    May 1, 2013 at 1:08 pm

    I have loved my moby, but as my daughter turns one I’m looking for something that will carry a heavier baby. I believe the mei tai, us just that!

  168. Leah freeman says

    May 1, 2013 at 1:04 pm

    If I won I would love the Jala Citroen on Grey carrier! We have a little girl now but would love one that is gender neutral like this so I could use it for our next one too if its a boy! 🙂

  169. Leah freeman says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:58 pm

    Oh these look so nice!! I would so love to have a Mei Tai! I am a full time student and would love to buy a baby carrier but as you said, the good ones are so pricey! :). Thanks for the giveaway opportunity!

  170. Jamie D says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:33 pm

    Love the sorbet flowers on neutral pattern

  171. Lindsey says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:31 pm

    The Eric Carle one for sure!

  172. Lindsey says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:31 pm

    I’m pregnant with my 3rd, and have not committed to a carrier yet. I’ve borrowed some friends’ ones, and did love the mei tai I borrowed and would love to get one of my own!

  173. Nicole Morrison says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:29 pm

    I am in love with the Jala Citroen on Grey Carrier! It matches my newborn’s bedding, colors and style perfectly. Couldn’t believe it when I saw it listed. Absolutely love that one!

  174. Jucinda Willoughby says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:28 pm

    I would love to win a Mei Tai carrier! I made a sling style carrier once, but it was only good for a few months, then he wanted to sit up and see more. Now I’m having #5, having free hands (and a happy baby) is so important! I would choose Poppies on Grey, because I think carriers and diaper bags should reflect Mom’s style, not baby gender. That’s what cute baby clothes are for!

  175. Jamie D says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:27 pm

    I would love to try this carrier!

  176. Nicole Morrison says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:27 pm

    I could so use this! We just had baby four and I need my hands free again! All boys ages seven, four, two and three weeks! Mama needs to be able to keep baby close and safe to chase after the others.

  177. Christine says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:23 pm

    I would choose the Sorbet Flowers on Natural. Verry pretty! Or birds of a feather on green.

  178. Christine says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:19 pm

    Hi Stacy and Brandy,

    I am expecting my first and this looks like a great way to bond! Thanks for reviewing all the different baby carriers, this looks like a great option!

  179. Lori G. says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:10 pm

    I think I would chose poppies on grey. Thanks!

  180. Dianna morales says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:09 pm

    If I were to be the lucky winner I would pick The Brown Bear by Eric Carle. Not only is the pattern adorable but I could use it for either a boy or a girl as we have no idea what the baby’s sex is yet! Well maybe the marvel comic one for the hubby, what guy wouldn’t love to have that carrier!!!!

  181. Lori G. says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:05 pm

    I would love to win this as we are due with #7 Aug. 1st. I didn’t start getting into babywearing until #6 was about 17 months. He is now 11 yrs old. So, I am starting from scratch with this one. I am looking forward to babywearing from the start, I think it will be so helpful.

  182. Dianna morales says

    May 1, 2013 at 12:05 pm

    First off thank you so much for doing the baby wearing segments. 9 years ago when we had our daughter we used a carrier, it worked well but got hot so I stopped using it. With our second child on the way I really wanted to wear te baby longer ad not sweat like a pig! 🙂 so I have been looking, and looking for carriers that are both light weight (no sweaty mommy) and versatile (back and front carry) and have found a few styles each with one or two differences. This carrier look so easy to use even the hubby wouldn’t complain! 🙂 I also like that Gracie and Sam are A US made company and we all need to support US products!

  183. Jodi Manley says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:55 am

    I love the Jala Citroen on Grey!

  184. Hannah P. says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:54 am

    I love the Poppies on Gray Mei Tai!

  185. Tamarah says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:53 am

    Baby number 4 on her way! Would love a cool Mei tei for this summer!!

  186. Jodi Manley says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:53 am

    I am pregnant with baby #3. i wore my other 2 using different carriers” I have always wanted a Mei Tei! They look amazing and so much easier than others.

  187. Hannah P. says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:53 am

    I would love to try the Mei Tai! I am 20 weeks pregnant with my first little one and right in the middle of all my baby carrier research!

  188. Chi Chi says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:50 am

    I would love the Marvel Comics on Black Mei tai baby carrier sling, reversible, cotton for my little man.

  189. Chi Chi says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:49 am

    I would love this carrier simply because it looks to give the most freedom to the baby. My son (4 months) has never liked to be in a carrier, completely wrapped, but I know he would not mind this one. We are going on a week-long vacation in HOT August and it would be great if I could baby carry and not sweat like a hog in heat. 🙂

  190. Stephanie S says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:49 am

    I can’t decide between Sorbet Flowers and Birds of a Feather! They are both great!

  191. Katie says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:48 am

    If I were to win, ahem, I like the Birds of a Feather.

  192. Stephanie S says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:46 am

    I would love a mei tai to tote my daughter around at the farmer’s market. She would get a much better view on my back than in a stroller!

  193. Patty says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:41 am

    I think Mei-Tais are the most versatile. One of our daughters has used one repeatedly, and I had something similar (but not nearly as well-thought out) with our last two in the early 80’s that I loved and used all the time! One of our sons–one of those two) just became a dad for the third time and would like a Mai tai. I’d give it to him.

  194. Katie says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:38 am

    I would love to have one because I recently bought my third baby carrier. I just can’t seem to find one that I like, or that I can figure out to put on. This looks super easy!

  195. Kati says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:37 am

    Love your review and found it helpful. Went to their etsy site, I like the design you got best! Especially the reversible, I have a boy now but hope {in the future} to have a girl!

  196. Kim elkins says

    I would love to be chosen for the free wrap. I am a foster mom and have five kids. I am hoping to get a new arrival any day. The two youngest are 2 and 10 months. I will need the wrap for the infant in order to avoid a triple stroller. I have not found a wrap that I like. Thank you for your consideration.

    This carrier looks awesome! Hope I win!

    Paisley on Red for sure!

  201. Rosalind C. says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:22 am

    For the bonus entry I really like the Shades Of brown and black one!

    Thank you for hosting this Giveaway! I would love to win – I’m due with our second child in August and have been eyeing Mei Tais. We just don’t have the money. Winning would allow us such a gift without an expense we can’t justify now. 🙂 I hope I win!!

  203. Ashley Z says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:21 am

    Would love to win a Mei Tai! I have two children now that love to be held, and would love to baby-wear our next child! Having this carrier would be so easy, not to mention it’s beautiful!

  204. Veronica says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:20 am

    I would choose the Jala Citroen on Grey!

  205. Veronica says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:18 am

    I’d love a Mei Tai because I’m pregnant with our first (my due date was last Sunday!) and I loooove the benefits of baby wearing! 🙂

  206. Rosalind C. says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:17 am

    I was just telling my hubby how I wanted a baby carrier because I have a cry baby mommys boy on hand ha ha ha! He just loves to and only likes being round me, So this would come in so handy. I would really love to try this carrier as I hear great reviews on them!

  207. Carolyn S says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:07 am

    I would love to have the Mei tai baby carrier sling, reversible, cotton, Sorbet Flowers on Natural

  208. Ashley H says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:07 am

    I would really like to give this as a gift to my sister. She is due with her second child on July 4th (a little fire cracker!). My sister is THE most frugal people I know! She rarely gets anything new, especially for herself, as she is always shopping second hand stores. The girl is beautiful, inside and out! She and her husband are godly examples of what a family should be. I love them with all my heart and would really love to give her a gift to make babywearing easier and so stylish 🙂

  209. Carolyn S says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:06 am

    I would love a better option for mobility and comfort than the baby bjorn we were given. Seems like this maybe the route to go!

  210. Ranay says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:02 am

    I would choose Jala Citroen on Grey!

  211. Ranay says

    May 1, 2013 at 11:00 am

    Wow! This looks like an awesome carrier! I have yet to try a mei tai. I would love to win one of these carriers as we have four children ages five and under (our newest is 3 weeks old :), and I’m realizing that babywearing is going to be a must to help simplify things, especially when out and about with our children.

  212. AineMistig says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:57 am

    Okay, for my second entry, I visited their site, and the one pattern I would choose if I were to win would be the Peacock on Brown!
    Here’s why:
    With the money we got for Christmas, we got a season pass to a local zoo (rather than buy more stuff!). It’s going to be one of our routine family outings (which is one of the times I use my wrap a lot!) The very first time we went, we saw lots of peacocks walking free throughout the zoo. I’d never saw a live male one before! I’d seen females at other zoos, but not males. We saw one male that my preschooler followed, fascinated, but he didn’t spread his tail feathers for him — although we were amazed at how long his tail is when it’s walking! Seriously, how do birds with tails that long survive in the wild? But I digress. On our way back out of the zoo, we passed the place we saw the male peacock, only this time there was a small crowd. We went to look, and he had his tail feathers up! My son went over to see him, and he turned away from the rest of the crowd towards my son, and we got a picture of my son with the peacock with his tail spread!

    It was an awesome family memory for us, and I would love to carry his baby brother in a mei tai remembering it every time we go back to the zoo.

  213. Marla Stanley says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:51 am

    I would definitely give my friend final choice, but I think they would like this one… http://www.etsy.com/listing/118338122/shades-of-brown-on-black-mei-tai-baby?ref=shop_home_active

  214. AineMistig says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:50 am

    I am so excited you are doing this series! And, even though I already have a Mei Tai, I would LOVE to win one by Gracie and Sam! The Mei Tai I have I got at a store, and the top part near the baby’s head is rather stiff. It ends up chaffing his face or his head if he falls asleep. When he’s a toddler, it won’t be a problem, but I honestly would use it more if it wasn’t for this problem. Gracie and Sam’s look a lot softer and more comfortable for the baby than the one I have, and they are a LOT prettier! I don’t think the hubby would agree to buying another baby wrap (“don’t you already HAVE one of these?!”), but I would love to win one!

  215. Marla Stanley says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:50 am

    I would love to win this because I could gift it to a dear friend who is about to have a baby (missionaries in South Korea). I had my first there this time last year and was stranded without a baby carrier! I know they will use one constantly!

  216. Andrea Bittner says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:46 am

    I’d like the oink side blue side pattern

  217. Michelle says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:45 am

    Poppies on gray is beautiful, but if I want my hubby to wear it, too, we would go for shades of brown.

  218. Andrea Bittner says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:42 am

    I’d like a mei tai because I’ve joined a baby wearing group and I keep hearing about them!

  219. Nora says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:41 am

    Extra entry:

    I would love the red paisley one.

  220. Nora says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:40 am

    Would love a custom carrier as we are expanding our family via fostering to adopt.

  221. Nicole Nygren says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:32 am

    I like all the designs, bit I would choose the Shades of Brown on Black Mei tai. So classy, and that way Daddy could wear her, too 😉

  222. Michelle says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:32 am

    I use a woven wrap that is lightweight but still will be too warm this summer…and I just might talk my husband into using a mei tai on occasion!

  223. Amanda says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:31 am

    I’m diggin’ the Jala Citroen on Grey Mei Tai pattern! And no I didn’t have to look at their website more than twenty times to remember how to spell that. : )

  224. Nicole Nygren says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:30 am

    I’d love to try a mei-tai carrier because I love to wear my baby and I’d like something to have her on my back now that she’s getting older.

  225. Katie says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:29 am

    Love the Poppies and Jala Citroen on Grey, but I’d be happy with any pattern that my husband would be willing to wear.

  226. Katie says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:28 am

    Looking for a front carrier that’s the right fit for us – this could be it! And it looks like it would be easy to take on the go – so many carriers take up too much space with everything else baby needs.

  227. Amanda says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:26 am

    Would love to give the Mei Tai a try out, especially with the summer coming up. My chunky monkey loves to ride in the Moby, but we both end up sweating like a hot dog at a weenie roast by the end of the baby wearing escapade. So the lighter fabric sounds so much more appealing. Andy looks pretty happy too, so there’s a good testimony for the product in itself.

  228. Crystal says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:17 am

    I would love to win one of these! We are expecting baby #7 this November. With 6 little ones ages 9 and under I need my hands free! I bought a Moby wrap with my 6th and loved it, but it was so much material for my petite frame and all the wrapping and unwrapping was a bit awkward, especially in the middle of the grocery store. This looks so simple and cute! Thanks!

  229. Stacy says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:15 am

    I did not wear my babies, but now I have a grandchild and would love to take him on hikes this summer. It’s almost like raising my son all over again…pictures could be swapped and only mama and I know the differences.

  230. Loni Gofran says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:04 am

    I would choose the reversible pink side/blue side- so cute and functional.

  231. Amelia says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:04 am

    I absolutely love the “Birds of a Feather on Green” pattern!! Perfect!

  232. Loni Gofran says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:03 am

    I’ve been wanting to try a mei tai- we have a boba, but hoping for more kids, and would love to try out the different fits!

  233. Amelia says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:03 am

    I’d love to have a Mei Tai to carry my babies around in! I’ve always wanted to do baby-wearing once I have kids.

  234. Rebecca Loach says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:02 am

    I went to the website and found many that were very attractive. I think I would choose the birds of a feather although Eric Carle one was very cute too!

  235. Rebecca Loach says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:00 am

    I would love to win one because these look so much easier to use than the kind with clips and buckles.

  236. Jenn L says

    May 1, 2013 at 10:00 am

    I would like the pattern Birds of a Feather on Green.

  237. Jenn L says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:58 am

    I would love to win this to carry my new little one around!

  238. Tiffy says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:51 am

    I like the Poppies on Grey Mei tai baby carrier sling!

  239. Tiffy says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:49 am

    I am having my first baby and there are so many options! I would love to try this one out.

  240. Areta Thompson says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:42 am

    I would like the pink side/blue side. We are not finding out the gender of baby #2 (due in 3 weeks). This looks so comfy!

  241. Megan says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:40 am

    Either sorbet flowers or paisley with red, I’m not good with options! They are all beautiful.

  242. Areta Thompson says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:38 am

    This would be amazing for our time out in the sun this summer! Baby # 2 is on the way in 3 weeks. Baby #1 is 2 years old now and is super active. I want to be a baby wearing mama this go around to keep up with the toddler and stay sane. An easy carrier would be great! Thanks for the offer:)

  243. Sharon says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:36 am

    I think I’d choose the blue side/pink side carrier, since we don’t know if it’s a boy or girl yet.

  244. Megan says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:35 am

    I would like to win this for a friend of mine who just found out she is pregnant with number five. She could use this so much because her carrier right now is well used with four kids already. I know she would be blessed by something like this.

  245. Sharon says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:32 am

    I’m expecting my fourth, and would love one of these! Thanks!

  246. Stevie B says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:27 am

    I looked at her site and Paisley on Red…wow! Fun and cute!

  247. Stevie B says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:25 am

    I would love one of these! Plus the note about being gender reversible…one “size” fits all! 🙂

  248. Morgan says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:22 am

    I would choose the sorbet flowers I think. I like several of the patterns!

  249. Morgan says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:20 am

    I would love to have this! We are going on vacation at end of May it would be so nice to carry around my little girl!

  250. Rachel says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:20 am

    I used a Moby with my last child and loved how comfortable it was. This looks just a comfortable but much simpler to use!

  251. Sarah W says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:19 am

    I would choose the pink side blue side mei tai if I won so I wouldn’t have to buy a second carrier if I have a girl.

  252. Deanna says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:18 am

    Absolutely gorgeous! Love how light weight and easy it looks. Baby number 2 is coming in 4ish weeks and this looks amazing (though a Boba/Ergo is number one of my list of wants :-))

  253. Sarah W says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:14 am

    Thank you so much for this opportunity! I’ve been searching for a new carrier. I’ve tried three and none of them are great for all positions (one I didn’t like at all, one could only be used when they were laying down, and the other was only good for a front carry).

  254. Sara W says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:08 am

    We like the Birds of a Feather in green design best! 🙂

  255. Sara W says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:06 am

    We are having our first baby in September and look forward to wearing him. My cousin’s baby feels very calm in hers and goes to sleep immediately when she’s put into it. They have a Baby Bjorn but I like the look and comfort of this one better.

  256. Amy Liles says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:05 am

    *IF* I were to be lucky enough to win this amazing mei tai I would love the Jala Citroen on Grey. I love the colors and that it’s gender neutral! <3

  257. Amy Liles says

    May 1, 2013 at 9:01 am

    I would LOVE to win this!! Not only would it be *perfect* for carrying my little this summer, but it would be amazing to be able to add a mei tai to my very small stash as I am starting a baby wearing group in my area. I love baby wearing and am definitely on a budget but my passion for it’s benefits pushes me to share with my community. It’s up to me and my tiny budget to build a sling library (I’m missing a mei tai!) so that other mothers can find the baby wearing love and benefits as well! It would also be an amazing way to share her product with the baby wearing world as I sometimes travel to Atlanta to meet with the Baby Wearers International group there. Please please please pick me (and my community!). Thank you both for this amazing opportunity!!

  258. Michelle says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:57 am

    I love the sorbet flowers print.

  259. Michelle says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:56 am

    I have a 7 week old and have been using my ergo but would like to see if another
    carrier is more comfortable. My baby is not so fond of it.

  260. Rachel says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:55 am

    Just visited the ETSY shop! I would choose the pink side blue side! How practical!

  261. Patty C. says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:54 am

    I LOVE the reversible options! Pink side Blue side is so lovely!

  262. Rachel says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:53 am

    Would LOVE to win one of these! We have a 4 month old and this would be perfect!!! Thanks for the giveaway.

  263. Rachael says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:52 am

    Paisley and red one would be my choice!

  264. Brooke B. says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:52 am

    All of the carriers are so cute but I think my favorite is Sorbet Flowers on Natural!

  265. Patty C. says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:51 am

    I have heard so many good things about the Mei Tai carriers that I would love to try one out myself! Lightweight is such a benefit when it comes to summer heat!

  266. Dorothy says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:49 am

    This looks like an awesome baby carrier! I would love to have one for my daughter who is a foster mom. Right now, she has a 4 yr. old, a 2 yr. old, and a 2 week old infant who needs extra cuddling due to medical problems. Thank you for offering us the opportunity to win a Mei tai!

  267. Rachael says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:48 am

    I have a super snuggly 16 month old boy 🙂 we are always busy keeping up with my oldest two! I’ve never tried one of these carriers and would absolutely love it! Thanks so much!

    Love the birds of a feather pattern! its beautiful

  270. Brooke B. says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:45 am

    I would love to have one of these carriers! My husband and I became foster parents when we were told we couldn’t have children of our own. We have been foster parents for the past 13 months to a 3 and 4 year old and are actually due any day with a sweet baby girl! We are very excited and encouraged that even when Dr.’s lose hope that God had a different plan for us!

  271. Janette says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:45 am

    Thanks for the chance to win. This sounds like a carrier I would be interested in.

  272. Kailyn says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:44 am

    I love wearing my daughter and have been wanting to try a Mei Tai for a while and those are beautiful!

  273. tanya says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:40 am

    I would absolutely love this carrier! I have a Moby I like but with hot weather around the corner I’d love something a little lighter for my newborn.

  274. Emily says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:26 am

    If I would win, I would pick Birds of a Feather on Green – green is a fav!

  275. Emily says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:25 am

    Would love one of these, I have a boba and love it, would be nice to have two for having one in the car.

  276. Talia B. says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:20 am

    I like the poppies on grey

  277. Cortney Niederer says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:20 am

    If sheer will helps with the luck of the draw I will win this one! 🙂 I’ve been wanting to baby carry for awhile but havn’t been able to afford a carrier yet. I would happily take either the birds of a feather or the pink and blue reversable. I have 4 kids 6 and under with the baby being 7 months old so I could really use free hands! lol

  278. Talia B. says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:18 am

    I LOVE babywearing. I dont know how I could handle two children without it. I have wanted a Mei Tai for a while!

  279. Teresa says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:17 am

    Waiting for our 4th grandchild in August…..
    I’ll be wearing her, too.
    Thanks for the opportunity.

  280. juli says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:16 am

    If I win, I would choose either birds of a feather or poppies on grey. Tough decision!

    I would love to try this carrier. I am expecting my 10th baby and did not start using carriers till number 6. This one looks great!

  283. Emiko says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:07 am

    If I were to win, I would like the pink side/blue side. Though I only have boys- hope springs eternal and I may get my girl yet. lol

  284. Wendy Smith says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:07 am

    After reading this great info I forwarded this to my daughter. She is about to have our second grandchild in September and we are so excite! As blogger herself, I know she will appreciate the valuable info.

  285. Melissa says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:04 am

    I like poppies on grey!

  286. Emiko says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:04 am

    I would love a Mei Tai baby wrap because some of my other baby wraps cut into my shoulders. The padded straps look great and one does get tired carrying around a chunky baby for long periods of time! And here in the south, cool is necessary in our humidity and heat!

  287. Sarah says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:04 am

    I have a sling and a backpack carrier that I have used with all four of my kids. My youngest is an infant, and he rides in the backpack a lot these days. I have always wanted to try a Mei Tai.

  288. Katie says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:01 am

    I love to wear my babies and would love to try something other than my snugli! 🙂 I tried the moby but it was too much material to get used to on a regular basis.

  289. Melissa says

    May 1, 2013 at 8:00 am

    I would love a mei tai so I can hold my baby close and have free hands to chase after my toddler!

  290. Jenna says

    May 1, 2013 at 7:59 am

    I would like to win a mei tai! I’m expecting #2 this year and never wore my first in a carrier but plan to for #2. (With my first, I already had received 2 strollers as gifts, and couldn’t justify spending the extra $$ at that point to have a third option for getting around.)

  291. Amy says

    May 1, 2013 at 7:54 am

    Oh my choosing which wrap is hard, they are all soo pretty! But i think i would choose the poppies on grey

  292. Amy says

    May 1, 2013 at 7:52 am

    I would love to win one of these wraps. I have three children, and my baby is worn a lot!! we are finding she doesn’t like to be outside unless right by mom. This looks like something that would get lots of use at my house!

  293. Tyler says

    May 1, 2013 at 7:46 am

    I would love to try this carrier! I am currently 6 weeks (or less!) away from having our baby boy and I am excited to try more baby wearing with this kiddo. Thanks for the give-a-way!

  294. Krystal says

    May 1, 2013 at 7:44 am

    I’d love to try a Mei Tai! While I love my Boba, it doesn’t fit into my diaper bag. This looks like it folds and travels really easily!

  295. Ani Kassabian says

    May 1, 2013 at 7:39 am

    If I win, I would love the Jala Citroen on Grey. It’s beautiful!

  296. Becky Wild says

    May 1, 2013 at 7:38 am

    I like the reversible ones that has patterns for girl on one side and patterns for boy on the other side. .

  297. Ani Kassabian says

    May 1, 2013 at 7:35 am

    I would LOVE to win this Mei Tai! As a new mom, I love to baby wear. I have the Moby, which is great, but it takes so long to put on. Sometimes, my baby is just crying and by the time I get it on, I have rushed so much that I didn’t even put it on right. It’s just too complicated for me. As you said, carriers can be a bit expensive and being a sahm living off one income, we just don’t have room in our budget for one. It would be great to win!

  298. Becky Wild says

    May 1, 2013 at 7:34 am

    Pick me pick me!!! 🙂 I’ve been looking for a baby carrier that is comfortable and cool because it gets HOT here in HOTlanta!!

  299. jennifer L. says

    May 1, 2013 at 7:29 am

    I also went to their website on etsy….I love so many patterns but I would say Jala Citroen on grey!!

  300. jennifer L. says

    May 1, 2013 at 7:27 am
