I just love baby carriers!
I have the maya wrap which I used a LOT with my son. Can't wait for this to arrive so I can master it before LO arrives. For those of you thinking about getting one I highly recommend it. It is better for your arms/back/hip to have a proper carrier and the baby loves being close to mom/dad.
I even used the maya wrap when my son was 2 years old and wanted to be carried, took the weight off my arms and could strap him on my hip. Highly recommend looking into carriers!
