RockstarMom 08-14-2007, 07:08 PM I made my own sling and I made a mei tai carrier. I love my sling. That 1st sling you posted- I see so many people wearing it wrong. :no With the baby all down low by their hip and jostling the baby around. CAmom4721 08-14-2007, 07:20 PM I have a sling and a carrier and with a big boy, the sling is what works best for us. I liked the carrier for a while, but he just doesn't fit into it anymore. I wish I had had the sling when he was born too, because it would have been a lot easier. amandalaine 08-14-2007, 08:37 PM I got the Infantino sling and hated it...It cut me on my neck and I always felt like Preston had his face against the side. I got a Baby Bjorn, and LOVE it! Angie 08-14-2007, 11:07 PM I think I may order a sling from Peanutshell Rachael 08-14-2007, 11:08 PM I think I may order a sling from Peanutshell I have one for you! I swear Im sending it out before the baby gets there Angie 08-14-2007, 11:14 PM I have one for you! I swear Im sending it out before the baby gets there LOL I believe you. I am real bad about sending things out so I understand *tina* 08-15-2007, 08:17 AM try an ERGO www.ergobabycarrier.com It has an infant insert, can be used as a front carrier, and a backpack. We've gotten so much use out of ours. Chevy_Gurl 08-15-2007, 08:52 AM IMO that sling is the WORSE invention EVER :no Every SINGLE person I have seen use that "sling" has used it wrong and has put their child in danger. I prefer the Ring Sling over everything. Easiest thing to use and best invention ever. tna111905 08-15-2007, 09:14 AM I have both I LOVE the sling but my little guy is getting too big for it now and the front carrier is great untik they get uber heavy or if you gave a bad back tna111905 08-15-2007, 09:27 AM I have both I LOVE the sling but my little guy is getting too big for it now and the front carrier is great untik they get uber heavy or if you gave a bad back |
