which one(s) do you have or have you used? post a picture if you have one

I have several. I'm a bit of a carrier junkie. I don't have pics right now. But i have a Hotsling (pouch style) a New Native Carrier (pouch style) A ring sling (mayawrap style) which I made and have the most experiance using. it's adjustable and that is really nice so DH can use the same one I am using and he doesn't have to have one of his own. I also have a Mei Tai, it's a front or back carrier, it's nice but not my favorite.

Sorry, no pics, but I have a Baby Bjorn, a Mei Tei, and a ring sling. I LOVED the ring sling when my kids were BABY babies, the Mei Tei is AWESOME, and the Baby Bjorn is pretty good too, but I find that I get warm with that one.

I LOVE slings though....and would HIGHLY recommend getting one:) One website that I would check out for slings/breastfeeding/all things "earthy" is www.earthymommies.com. I LOVE it there :)

I am soo Mei Tai when we have our next kid. Those things look soo comfy

i want a sling so so badly, esp one that i can use to breastfeed with without alot of hassle

I would probably suggest a ring sling then. You can use the "tail" to help cover you up. :wink

thank you

Anytime!! :)

I have a Maya Wrap style I made and I am still in the attempts in making my Mei Tai. I used my sling today as a hip hammock when I was vacuuming since the baby is sick and wanted to be held. Slings are WONDEFUL inventions!

I made myself a maya wrap style. This is the best picture I have.

I have a maya wrap (http://www.mayawrap.com/viewItem.asp?ItemID=100002&UnitCde=1&Desc=Adjustable%20Pouch&VendorDesc=&Search=N)adjustable pouch that I have never used. I tried using it when Nate was smaller but never got the hang of it :nutts He never liked it, either, but that was probably because I didn't really know how to use it :D

I used my Baby Bjorn while he was a little smaller and had no problems with it, except for it was a bit of a hassle to put on sometimes.

Now that he is older I love my mei tai :) I haven't tried wearing him on my back yet like Marla in her picture but we're working on it!

Rockstarmom made this for me when I visited San Diego. Junior took the pics for ya :giggle

Here's our Ergo.

Where did everyone buy their slings from?

I bought mine from a baby expo. But you can also order my style at www.ergobabycarrier.com

I love the maya style ones. Waiting on Ms. Marla to finish mine( no rush marla).


My grandma bought me one that I have NO clue how to use. Let me see if I can find a pic of it.

i found this online and i really love the look of it http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2266783&cp=2255983.2256186.2256191&view=all&parentPage=family

OK I have this one. It is made by a local woman in my hometown.

Oh now Jill you know you sport your sling like that!!

I had a baby bjorn and I loved it! DH was in Iraq from the time Lydia was 4 months old until she was 9 months old and I had to walk the dogs several times a day with her, so she'd ride along in the bjorn. I don't have any pics of us though now I wish I had taken some. Now we have a baby backpack made by Snugli, she's in that a couple times a day too. I couldn't live without my bjorn when she was really little, I'd wear it around the house to clean, cook, whatever.

My favorite sling is my Oopa (this is the one I have: http://www.oopababy.com/shop/detail/47)! I've also owned and liked Zolo slings. My favorite Mei Tai right now is my Freehand Mei Tai. I love this thing sooo much! Wraps I'm not so much into.
