Girls thanks so much for the offer of the loans. This was my original thought and i have asked in my BB group but so far no success i so started looking to see if i could find any secondhand maybe. I'm just not sure if it's worth me buying one or not Those close by only have baby bjorns... if they still have them at all? I haven't checked.

Kim what do you mean by SSC?? $34 does sound too good to be true doesn't it?? I was a little sceptical which is why i thought i'd ask.

Maybe i could borrow one? You can be assured that i will look after it and i will pay for registered post. We go away the last two weeks of Jan so i will return it early feb.

I have no real preference apart from knowing it will be able to carry DD comfortably who is approx 8.1kg. She may sleep in it but i imagine that most of the time i use it she'll be awake and wanting to look around.
