I have a HAB which I love and intend to get an Ergo for use in a couple of months, but am interested in getting something that is very quick and easy to put on for short trips, e.g. for carrying bubs up from car (live in an apartment and car is a little way from front door) when have shopping etc as well (at moment I just carry her but she is getting wriggly and would feel safer if could slip her in a sling). Or to carry her in and the stroller onto the tram which stops outside front door. I have had a look at thebabywearer but there are just so many types on there, I presume I should look at a pouch style like the peanutshell but what would be the similar brands? Also my daughter is in a brace for clicky hips at the moment and probably for a few more months, this holds her legs out like she is doing a star jump or jumping jack so not sure if would work in a peanut shell - any ideas?
I have a Bubzilla sling which is pouch style and love it. So does my DS. And its quick and easy to get in/out of.
Its quite snug for DS though, so not sure that it would work with the brace for your daughter? You can google them and see some pics, that should be able to tell you whether it would work or not.
Thanks for the tips, I had a look at the bubazilla pics and also had a go with a friends pouch type sling and it won't work for DD because of the brace. Really what I need is one like the hugabub so an upright carry but just quicker to put on than the hugabub and one that is practical in carparks etc (hugabub material gets dragged all over the floor).
Is the close carrier quicker/easier than the hugabub?
maybe a bucklye tai, ie like a mai tai but has buckles so wont drag on ground. What sort of brace is dd in, if her legs a spread you might be able to thread it inbetween the brace and her bottom.
Sling for quick trips
