i have the ellaroo ring sling. it has been the best investment. used it from day dot, pretty much all day everyday for the last 2 years and it has NO signs of wear or tear. i like that it can be folded up and shoved into handbags, can be used as an emergency nappy mat and also as a blankie for when you are on a plane and the air-con goes bonkers...
love it!
I have a close carrier and use it everyday! Absolutely love it.
ruff hun - borrow one of mine for a little while when bub arrives, and if you like it (i know you will ) then grab your own. I really dont mind lending it to you, i just dont want to sell them as i hope to have more bubbas! (and they are still in perfect condition to re sell even after 6 months of constant use)
but.....
some of the stores have the colous that i have realy quite cheaply at the moment as they have discontinued those colours (man i must have bad taste hey? the two I HAVE get culled!) so it might be worth biting the bullet
but.... i have cabbage patch dolls - you can try one with a doll even with a belly LOL!!
PMSL- please take a pic and post it on here if you do!!! lol:
I'll say no they aren't easy to sell. I have been trying to sell mine for months without any luck. I've decided it just lend it out when people want to try it.:
There is no buckle hun, it is a slip on with rings, and the top layer you tie on.:
My sister LOVED it for her NB Harmony, she said it was so comfy and Harm would sleep in it immediately. However, I didn't have any luck with it but Ash was a big baby when I got it, around 8kg. It wasn't supportive enough.
If your looking for something for JUST the first few months then yes it would be good :) Otherwise get something like a pouch or Mei Tai. I used a Mei Tai and Ergo and Wrap (didy and storch) with Ash, loved them all! Mei Tai was my favourite for a long time, now Ashton is heavy (11kg) I love the Ergo for back carry. I used them all from birth though.
I think I am sold on the close... Just have to convince DH...
Kitt3n, I am tempted with the reduced price to get a natural coloured one now, but with the BB discount at a few shops, I might try and get some money from people (family) as gifts and get one with that...
And I will get my mum to make me up a ring sling, with some fabric I have, so that will cover that base too...
Thanks everyone for your input!
