I've got a few slings and I wish I had have had the close carrier when my DD was a newborn.
It's like a Hug-a_bub but you dont have to tie it
I had a peanut shell so sort of like a ring sling and I could never get Elise in a comfy position, she hated it.
The close is just as easy to use but they are upright on your chest so it's just like you are cuddling them without the hands.
I carried her for hours when she was first born and still do, she has a need to be carried all the time, hates the pram, won't be put on the floor.
You get used to it slowly and the more you wear bubs the easier it gets as you get used to them as they get bigger. I notice it on my thighs now that she is getting to the 7kg mark, if you have a good carrier you shouldn't feel fatigue in your back/shoulders, I don't my legs get sore before anything cause I am not in the best shape right now!
