    I just go with DD in the carrier. I mean, where else can I put her? Not on the floor. Its a normal bodily function, so its not a big deal to me. XP has had her in the carrier, and gone to the loo. Standing up though. I would have taken her from him, but she'd just gone to sleep.

    I'm all for going to the loo while bubs is in the sling. Public or not The worse I find is when they fall asleep in the shops just as you are getting ready to get to the car and then you have to either stay or wake them up to put them in the car.

    I just go if Ds is asleep in the carrier! But he follows me everywhere now anyway and i have absolutely no privacy what so ever so it doesnt bother me anymore

    Yeah, I'm a go-er as well. Just got to be careful if he's in a wrap or MT that I hold any dangly straps - could get a bit scary otherwise.

    I just go to the loo. Quite often with DS awake in the carrier now - well, if I NEED to go I don't have the time to jump him out the carrier at home (it's a big old wrap one) and I don't want him running off in a public loo.

    I've never given it a second thought! Well, only in the early days when unzipping jeans with legs in the way, but I'd rather DS sleep or be happy than me wet myself.

    I agree with, well everyone lol, it's just easier to go with 'em in there!

    I too hope that that woman was kidding about hanging the sling with bub insitu (sp) on the door, I mean, not only could the hook not be strong enough but what if there was a bag snatcher??!!! How many times have you heard of someone having their bag nicked while they were on the loo by someone just reaching over & taking it...??

    Oooh the amount of times I've had to stay for aaaaaaaages because of that and nothing to do but wander aimlessly...lol.

    As for going to the toilet with bubs in a sling well actually hugabub, yep done that. I found it quite similar as trying to go when heavily pg except bubs is on the outside..lol. I don't get to go on my own much any more anyway..haha.
