She's at that stage where she just drops/flings everything to see what happens. While this is developmentally appropriate, it's a bit frustrating since I'm wearing her to try and get things done! Scarf might be an option...

I don't remember what kind of carrier you're using but I attached a toy that was meant for like a car seat - i.e. soft, to my Ergo so that R would have something to play with - it helped.Wife to NSG out of training, mom to 2, 10 & 8, and a beagle with wings.Comment

A woven borrowed from my local babywearing group. I'm thinking I'm might go try out a mei tai though. I'm having trouble getting her to hold still long enough in the woven and I like that the mei tai is somewhat a hybrid in that it's adjustable (since the Ergo doesn't fit me) but also a much quicker tie. I need something more poppable for errands than a long woven since I prefer to back carry.Married to a Urology Attending! (that is an understated exclamation point)

I'm so glad you posted this, Michele!
Just the other day, I got: "I can't believe you still wear him!" from a friend, and then the side-eye of judgment from my ILs while we were visiting (for wearing him, instead of bringing a stroller).

Oh Thirteen that is ridiculous - I was not a huge wearer but even I wore R when he was over 30lbs. Wear as long as you'd like, I was wishing I was still wearing when we went to the KU game last weekend but he doesn't like to be worn anymore.Wife to NSG out of training, mom to 2, 10 & 8, and a beagle with wings.Comment

Anyone know what the max weight is? (for an Ergo). N is 25 lbs, but it is really convenient to wear her and the weight doesn't bother me. But can it hurt her at some point?
She has been awfully fidgety and grumpy in it lately, but I think she is just bored because I'm standing in one place cooking, etc.

We wore K in an Ergo until he was 35lbs. The carrier I have for N goes up to 35lbs.Veronica

Ergo's upper limit is 35 to 40 pounds. I found mine all outgrew the height before the weight. I don't like how it all feels when the top of the carrier cuts them across mid back/upper waist level. When they lean, they pull on my balance too much.Mom of 3, VeterinarianComment

They make toddler size mei tais, I know that. I like that I can wear her higher than in an Ergo because she can look over my shoulder and gets less bored that way.Married to a Urology Attending! (that is an understated exclamation point)

Neither of my kids have been happy in a carrier while I'm too still. It's great for grocery stores, but unless I'm vacuuming, I haven't really found it that useful to wear them around the house.Laurie
