The bubba moe wasn't for us. While DD was a newborn, I was always too nervous of her head slumping into her chest. Plus she had a habit of squirming around and burying her face in the pouch. I tried the hip carry once she got older, but could never get it tight enough to support her shoulders so I still had a good deal of her weight on my arm, which kind of defeats the purpose. I always felt like it was never tight enough (I'm not big but I'm definitely not petite either).

I loved my hug-a-bub while DD was little, even in the summer. I'll still put her in it every now and then when I can't be bothered lugging the pram around.
